Kp203There is a spell checker. Look at the ABC icon on the right side on the toolbar. But you have to download it.

It is a fact the Florida lottery uses 21 ballsets and 7 machines for the Pick-3 and Pick-4 draws, they randomize the rotation of ballsets and machines. In my opinion this makes 147 unique digit generation systems weaving their draws throughout the results. Nothing at all to do with what I was talking about in that other thread where I was wrong.I think they do this to make prediction as hard as possible, others think something else, whatever helps you sleep at night, right?When we talk about r...

Kp2o3But if the Lotto History is long enough take a halfway point then for that past History you have the History that ensued.Generally, I agree with what you are saying; previously on this forum I have said whatever conclusions you come to for a given History should be tested on another like History or do as I do generate your own Histories and multiple test.Colin

I have said it before and will say it again, it does not matter how the hell they get the numbers, in the end all that matters are the numbers themselves regardless of how the hell they got them in the first place.The history of the draws, that's all that you have in the end and that's all that you need to get the winning number(s) with.That's all that you have to work with for the most part, that's what you need to use to get the number.

Kp203Don't worry about the College vocabulary because there is nothing in there that makes sense.You want to know about Wheels and Lotto, BobP is a very knowledgeable man. When it come to randomness and the physical apparatus involved BobP has ideas that are not shared by me and I think a few others to. ( I thought after the last episode that he had conceded he was wrong and changed his mind on some of these fantasies.)Let's see -Don't count on useful Pick-3 information coming out of a computer...

Ok,,, but you went over my head with your college level vocabulary. I understand about the use of different machines PLUS using different ball sets, but what I don't understand is why you think the numbers drawn are not random, or do not form a random string ? I don't care if they use 500 different machines and 500 different ball sets. (unless you're one of the ones that believe that amount of PAINT used on the ball determins which balls pops up more often). The number 1 uses less paint than... [ More ]

Don't count on useful Pick-3 information coming out of a computer r.n.g. because the two aren't even close.The lottery doesn't select one ballset and machine to conduct 10,000 draws from. It's really like dozens of random number generation threads are twisted or woven together for each column to get the string of drawings we see. Let's say there are 21 ballsets and 7 machines, that's 147 different draw generators contributing to the draw history and that's only good up to the point where they m... [ More ]

But what if i told you that you can play a few times a year when something is out of wack. Wouldn't you think all numbers have to hit at some point in time . After 16 years, the FL Cash-3 still has two straight numbers that have never hit. (652 and 494). If they went 5,800 draws without hitting, can they go ANOTHER 5,800 draws?? What do you think?

You're dead on Kp2o3. If you play pick-3, you will lose, it is unavoidable. What if somebody walked up to you and said, I have a great deal for you! For every dollar you give me I will give you 50 cents. Every day many people accept such an offer.

Colin FWhat's wrong with you today?Let the man speak and make his point, after all, he is not talking to you, but to everybody and some other people might want to hear, stupid or not, let others make their own minds about it.Nice day to both of you.

Kp2o3I got to many headaches trying to figure MrSteel01 out. You would definitely give me a migraine.However, there is hope because I think you and MrSteel01 are soul mates. What do you reckon MrSteel01, do you both speak the same lingo?Your invitation is spurned; one of the conclusions I reached a long time ago is that it is stupid to argue with a stupid person because they are too stupid to recognise their own stupidity so why should one expect them to follow anything that was anything other t...

Let's say I was a stupid idiot, and I played all 1,000 pick-3 numbers every draw. Guess what would happen??... Yep, That's right... I'd hit the correct number EVERY SINGLE TIME. This is not a Polish Joke... I am DEAD SERIOUS! If I played 100% of all the combinations, I would 'pick the correct number 100% of the time. I hope you all agree so far. It's like the two guys who would drive 100 miles and buy a truck-load of watermellons for one dollar each. Then they would drive 100 miles back into th... [ More ]
