RJ added lots of his knowledge to a recently drawn numbers system discussion too.

Back then a non jackpot significant win was $250,000 for matching 5 + 0 on MM and Ohio had many other games with higher payoff with much lower odds. And in one of his posts RJ said For now I've decided to not play MM until it has a little history. Besides with the state's Classic Lotto(6/49) at $50.6M and Rolling Cash5(5/39) at $509K, I have some excellent alternates to the multi-states games.

Sort of ironic... [ More ]

@ rcbbuckeye

So are you only playing MB/PB ? and do you analyze it on a massive scale? By massive i mean a lot of data, backed with some kind of pseudo-analysis and not just picking from the hat;D

Nice approach, but major flaw with all ,,system , is that they are enigma-type systems.

What i mean by that, is that is 14 drawn today, then it can come in tomorrow and next draw. With German enigma machine, letter was never itself.

As i mentioned in previous post table, there is need for at least 21+ filters unique filters to win MM. Many people have Even/Odd okay. that's one. But there needs to be 21+ and they can't repeat :)

21 filters = 5.77 tickets which is standard play, and withi... [ More ]

Back in the day (10-12 years ago) I kept track of each number as to how many times it was drawn in each position. For example, obviously #1 was only in first position. I recall #14 was a number that was drawn a lot, and if memory serves me it seemed to play mostly in the 2nd position. (I don't have those charts anymore). It turned out that it wasn't that reliable of a system (not surprisingly), but it was interesting to see how numbers played.

My point in all this is something I've said befor... [ More ]

One extra note here:

*I couldn't edit previous post due to 20 min rule.

Below table representation. To win in 5:0, there needs to be at least 20+ filters at please. Each system just halves the other one.

Open question: How many filters do you use? (in any lottery not just MB/PB)

12,103,014.00 # of Filters Percentage

6,051,507.00 1 50

3,025,753.50 2 75

1,512,876.75 3 87.5

756,438.38 4 93.75

378,219.19 5 96.875

189,109.59 6 98.4375

Hello,

Well, there isn't one one ,,system per se, but Mega Million and Power Ball are great way to analyze due to massive amount of data(combinations).

Lotto's pick 3,4 etc might be more ,,profitable , however because less combinations, thus massive amount of ,,systems .

In fact, it is easier to not find a system than to do so in smaller lotteries.

Cheers,

P.S. Do you have any systems or knoweldge on MM or PB you want to share

All the banter going on about probability math got me to thinking about an old thread by a very well respected member who many will remember, RJOh.

His efforts to find a winning strategy were really interesting. This goes back to 2008 when the MM odds were way lower than they are now. As far as I know he never won a jackpot, or even a signifcant win. When the thread ended it was then I realized that there is no strategy or method that will beat the incredible odds of a jackpot game. Only pure... [ More ]
