I almost won a 1 in 575,000 Jp, more then ten years ago but I didnt, cause I am retarded. ( 5 of 39 )

I know two people who did win a 1 in 575,000.

I unfortunatley had to move and only had a 5 of 43. The odds are almost double I think at 1 in 900,000

Odds Matter.

Same to you Sully.

I have to sat tyes because in 1987 I had 5 of 6 in the California lottery, paid $2002 but one more number and it would have paid a LOT more! $14 million.

I used Libre Office once. It doesn't have the muscle to make a DSH chart.

Excel itself is slow for me. Or maybe its my lack of streamlined sheet.

I want to pull out my hair even using excel. Adv gold has its points like the skip charts,

But I couldn't make it work with the libreoffice. Its like driving a pinto and going up against excel, you aint gonna win place or even show.

I prefer to wheel by skips.

In an average 1 in 500,000 odds game. The skips will be 0 1 2 5 L Only play numbers with those skips. Keeps me in the game.

As a general rule the flag runs with 4 numbers in the last 5 games and 1 greater than 5. (L)

Could be a skip 6, a skip 7, a skip 10, a skip

I am designig a chart. I was gonna put it in the 4B or not 4B thread, but it looks like it was deleted. Not sure why. I guess it would be wiser to talk to a lawyer first.

Maybe I could hire gails lawyer. I also befriended a MIT math genius in a weird way. He said he can help me. Just updating my excel charts now. Got a little side tracked.

I would say yes, pseudo random number generators have gotten way better in the last 5 to 10

years not to mention matrix changes.

For many years I tracked data as if there was some order to the sets generated, Big mistake.

I now use a spin-off of fuzzy logic mixed with a few other modern techniques. It's a work in

process but the results are amazing. The analysis skips the last five or more drawings and

excludes them, the analysis data is collected totally at random. It has... [ More ]

I said Maybe.

I think with the much more understanding of Lotto games now, winning more lower tier prizes back then would have been more possible because of the Game formats back then. Back then it was, Lower Number Fields, Drawing taking place one time a week, Mechanical Drawings, instead of RNG Drawings.

With the Technology today. . . Just gotta keep trying. . . For fun of it.

Q1In never really won anything in the lottery except getting the PB or mm number for a dollar one or twice every few years until I found the lotto logix web site which led me to lottery post. Did not know anything about the lottery until I saw a guy who seemed to win all the time and got me into doing some research on the web as I would ask the guy how he won so much and what he claimed to do was not much better than guessing.

Ohio's Rolling Cash 5 hasn't changed since it started 18 years ago and Classic Lotto is the same 6/49 game that played long before that. If you could win a jackpot for sure back in the day, why not now?

Just wondering

Reply #11

Cmoore50 — Wed, 19 Oct 2022 02:14:34 GMT

Oh, ok...I would've won a jackpot for sure. No doubt about it. There are several formulas in excel that weren't around back then. Countifs (not countif), hlookup, vlookup. What about Vstack. I'm not an expert in excel like some. But the formulas are shorter and easier to create. With youtube at your fingertips. You can practically look up anything and you'll find the answer.

Stack47 — Wed, 19 Oct 2022 00:17:34 GMT

Really depends on which lottery games we play. Pick 3 and pick 4 games haven't changed much since the day they started. Most of the 5/39 games payoffs are exactly the same as the day they started too. We could buy two lotto tickets for buck but many of the payoffs were under $1 million. There were 50 cent scratch-offs too.

I used lottery software in the 90s and though not as user friendly and as thorough as the LP analytical systems, it did many of the sames things. If there are any new and... [ More ]

You make me want to open Excel to see what new toys I'm missing.

With the 2010 version it was always a challenge to decide on the color scheme for conditional formatting.

Likely I wouldn't get anything done but I'd have a blast!

Excel improvements from 97 include a few more Formulas, Queries and Conditional Formatting.

Formulas that begin with IF have been expanded, but the improvements have not enticed me to use them. Tho Old IFs still do the job.

Queries Have improved, but the original queries are still all I need today.

Conditional Formatting is a Digital Drug. Addiction leads to hours of secondary formulas that can change a Cells shape and color.

Excel becomes a kaleidescope. Not like the one you h... [ More ]

The most Ive won was about $800 playing Ohio Lotto around the mid 1980s.

Got 5/6 on a QP. If I remember a player got 2 lines for a buck.

Odds were WAY better back then, and even getting 2 lines it was still hard to win the jackpot, which was $250,000.

I'm the other NO voter. If it wasn't for excel, I'd give up this chase. Excel back then wasn't as good. Back before the internet, you had to learn excel or a programming language on your own. That seems hard. Odds are worse now, but ways to collect and decipher data is much better. You just need to think outside the box. One more thing, I didn't know Jack back then. I just started playing the lottery three years ago.

Chances were much better in years past, Bob.

I say that's the reason we see the games changing more, and more quickly, and the addition of bonus balls.

The closer we get to catching up, the farther out of reach the games management puts them to stay one step ahead.

I don't have any information, but it wouldn't be a surprise to learn the lottery management companies keep tabs on how many winning tickets are sold, and once that number approaches their percentage of allowable winners (s... [ More ]

Would You Have Won Back When With What You Know Today?

BobP — Sun, 16 Oct 2022 21:23:56 GMT

Here's the setup. We all know the further back we go the easier the lottery was to win. Odds were lower. There were even games like the Florida 5/26 where one could have won over and over again just by playing all the previous winning combinations. Some games were evenly devisable like the New Jersey 6/48 saving many wheeling dollars when putting all the numbers into play. And there were some two for a dollar games compared to two dollar games today. So the question is, knowing what we know toda... [ More ]
