what would you do if say you could get 5 numbers or 4 every month or week out of your list of chosen numbers??

Usually it's how much would you pay to get 4 or 5 numbers every month or week . But you haven't been here all that long either.

Thanks im messing with Euro, irish and daily Millions just using it on Xl and (try before you play) and using this sites wheeling system, Their exact wording is

Wheel: Pick 5 Key 4 if 4 of 20

Tickets: 258

Description: Minimum 4-number match, if 4 numbers drawn fall within your set of 20 numbers.

Input: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20

and i looked at this so if l picked 2 -7 -9 -13 does that mean l have to pick 5 to get 4 matched

so your just saying pick a number (except this 5if5-18 is 1 ) and hope it comes out and it would be added to any other numbers youve trapped ??? or have l got that wrong

Cheers

Apparently you're confusing a key number wheel with a full wheel. The key number will appear on every line with all the possible combinations made by the other numbers. An 18 number 5 if 5 key number wheel is actually a 17 number 4 if 4 wheel and becomes a 5 if 5 wheel when the key number is drawn.

A full 18 number wheel has 8568 combinations and only a 1.5% chance of matching five numbers in a 5/39 game. Why do you expect to find all five number on one of the 2380 lines a 5 if 5 key number... [ More ]

The wheel's guarantee holds true ONLY if your chosen 18, 20 or 21 numbers contains the 5 winning numbers of the drawing... that's more than likely why you aren't getting 5 of 5 results...

Picking Statistically viable numbers is only 50% of the process,.. the other half involves the wheeling process...

What software, if any ..are you using? ..What lottery game are you waging

Hello

I am new to this site and still not quite with it but will look into it a bit more deeply.

Your right l am looking into it logically that when it says 5if5 of 18,20 or 21 i expect to match 5 numbers from 18 numbers of my choice.

even if l have 18 numbers to choose from it still dont seen to match.

what would you do if say you could get 5 numbers or 4 every month or week out of your list of chosen numbers??

cheers

rendoc,

As it's been said already... Any key number(s) formula must minus the amount of key numbers from the total matrix...So..

1 key number for an18n (5-pick) should be viewed as a (17n 4 if 4)

A 2 key number for an 18n (5-pick) should be viewed as a (16n 4 if 4)

A 3 key number for an 18n (5-pick) should be viewed as a (15n 4 if 4)... etc

It appears you're thinking Lexicographically still tho... If you think Combinatorically, you can make that same n wheel in a lot less combina... [ More ]

As others have said, it's really 4 if 4 of 17 with one key number. I'm more interested in the risk of playing almost 2400 lines without matching five numbers. Good luck

It's because you're using the key number wheel for 5if5 of 18. When you put 1 in that first field, all the combos generated are supposed to contain 1.

If you want a regular 5 if 5 wheel of 18 numbers, it's going to be 8568 combos. That's probably why the max for regular 5 if 5 wheels on the wheels page is 16. Do you know Python? I can message you some lines of code if you need to generate all 8568 of them.

That's how a Pick 5 Wheel: Key 5 if 5 of 18 works! (1 is the Key all entries will contain a 1

Can anyone help me with this, I wheeled 18 numbers in 5if5 -18 numbers and I put 1,2,3,4 etc in each box and expected every different combinations so when looked for the numbers 2,6,7,9,12 all the numbers started with 1 and it only matched 4, even if I changed the settings from 49 to 18 it's still the same, what am I doing wrong
