I have won more on using system techniques than using QPs. Remember the word is: QUICK picks. You are relying on the total ramdomness of the machine... based on the random time intervals. That is it.

Quick-Picks are totally based on the Random Odds of Winning that are posted on the back of every lottery playslip.So in Pick-4 the Odds are 1 in 10,000 so if youhave 10-20,000 or more people buying quick-picks there's gonna be winners somewhere in your state.You just probably won't be one of them,that's where the Luck part kicks in someone else was the Lucky onenot you.

These rates are extraordinary. A full wheel of 8 numbers generates C(8,5)=56 combinations. If the florida 5 game has 45 numbers (I don't know how many thery are), the whole set of combinations is C(45,5)=1221759. Having all 5 winning numbers within this set of 8 you choose, has a chance of 56/1221759=0.004%. So, probably this 96% or even 73% is a misunderstanding. The chance of having just one winning number in a group of 8, for the above game, is C(8,1)*C(37,4)/C(45,5)=528360/1221759=43.24%. Is... [ More ]

I am new to this forum. And I also have created a program for calulating possible results for the Florida Lottery and the Florida Fantasy 5.I have come up with a good conclusion but the probelm lies in the amount of money to be invested.Oh have run several tests and it gave me a 73% accuracey in the Florida Lotto and a 96% accuracey in the Florida Fantasy 5.I use an algorithm to produce combinations with the numbers the user wants to use. eg. if you chose 8 Fantasy 5 numbers, my program will

Fortunately, these days I come up with some very good ideas by reading some of your posts. I couldn't even imagine the impact these posts had on my design. To be honest, the whole program is redesigned from scratch. It is based on the same idea but it now supports new features and major improvements are obvious anywhere and the most important: it should be much easier to use. It looks like the end product will be brilliant! I work almost 8 hours per day to speed up the conversion process. Soon e... [ More ]

lottoking, instead of trying to make anyone pay attention to you by promising predictions to them, why not discuss your theory if it's that good? It's really pointless to disturb people that way. If you want to be useful, this is not the right way.

Rjoh I know you know why the lottery exist it has been used for centuries to make money. My only problem with lotteries is when states say they can't afford to pay teachers, hire police, fire dept. people, feed the hungry, etc., etc., etc. But they spend millions on promoting and advertising fill the upper management's pockets good. Dish some of it out for the states funds and invest it in junk bonds. And tell us that were still paying for a sports stadium that was supposedly paid for with peopl... [ More ]

Having 4-5 people posting their ideas is good, but I don't think this is everybody as you say. About putting all these ideas together, just to let you know this is a 4 year project till now. It's not an easy task to say lets mix them all them together and ship it to the public. It's not a common program or something you have ever seen to the market before. If it was, it would be just an ordinary program meaning I should not get into the trouble of writing it! I understand your taste to see what... [ More ]

Excalibur, what you ask is allready implemented. This is one of the 350+ analysis I've mentioned. Apllying several algorithms to each individual column of a pick-3 game (and any other game as well), lets the program decide which/whom yield the best results to use. Nice thoughts I have to admit, I've read a lot of your posts at the forum. Keep going, you do it well.

Because it has the best odds.On the pick3 to me the most important thing is to know the 1 number that has the best chance of coming out in the nest drawing this is for any order plays.And for straight bets, the most important thing for me is to know which number has the best chance of coming out in the first position ( 6 ) 5 8 .The third more important thing for me is to know the 3 to 5 (User selects how many numbers he wants the...

Well, I currently redesign the underlying engine to allow an average lottery player to feel confident! Of course, the final target is to produce an easy to use program but still has all the advanced features working as well. This is a challenge for any programmer worldwide. The program is actually based on reverse prediction as the only source of information we have is the past drawings. This allows the program to semi-modify it's parameters as user input/decision is still required! Don't be c... [ More ]

All lottery players are looking for a way to improve their odds of winning money or a lottery jackpot.Since the purpose of any lottery games is to raise money for the state, not to make millionaires, games are often changed to increase the odds and jackpot sizes. Larger jackpots entice more people to play resulting in the states making more money.Using a lottery system is one way of improving those odds. A system may make a tremendous impact on your chances of winning. Every state will try and c... [ More ]

This is EXACTLY what the program does. It checks whenever a particular approach works or not. Having several approaches working at the same time, it can decide which of them to use and disable the others based on their ability to predict well.I split the whole prediction process in 3 stages. The 1st one deals with wheeling systems, the 2nd with number groups and the 3rd with truth tables (Sums/Odd etc). Please, anyone who wants to contribute, just be specific of how do you use all the above. For... [ More ]

There are as many ways of predicting as points of view, some of the ways are in general more or less good for all lottery games and some others are good only for a particular game.Another thing, some trends in a particular lottery game are more or less constant, while other {Relationships?} seem to be always or at least every so often changing, as you know, what worked a while back, doesn't work anymore, but something else does or might, but a few things remain always almost the same.A single or...

I'm aware of all these issues you mention here. Importing/exporting lotteries in ASCII format is allready in place, althought the program uses another much more efficient internal format. Corruption of data is no longer an issue as it has been solved by this format. Real lotteries (official commissions around the world) are meant to be updated in realtime within the program, I'm working on it at the moment. Modification of algorithms is a major ability of this program. Besides, all analysis is b... [ More ]

I have to agree with RJOH, it is very important to keep the effort of input (from a very large database) very low. The ability to import ascii, or tab delimited data into a program keeps effort to a minimum.The ability to modify a program's algorithms is also a must in any numerical prediction program. As any serious lottery player will expound on at length, we like to modify. If we didn't, we wouldn't be looking to others for their strategies.Perhaps, for the more ambitious amongst us, you coul...

Lotto Pro have many of the features I mentioned, but as far as I know there is no easy way to structure the analytic tools so one can see what effects they have had in the past on previous drawings and come up with a strategy for a present drawing. For example I might want to compare the last 50 drawings with their previous 100 drawings and see if there were any common parameters among them. LotoMasters, a similar program from a Canadian company have similar features, I tried it but bought Lot... [ More ]

I really don't think that there is a guaranteed way to beat the lottery. But I do believe that every ticket has a chance. I also believe that there are play strategies. You could wheel numbers together or play hot and cold numbers. On Saturday, I played low and high numbers and numbers in the middle (such as 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, etc.), but that didn't work. I even won $100 on a quick pick back in January. However, there are times when I have played several tickets with the same red powerba... [ More ]
