Lottery Game Design White PapersReply
I did as I suggested in my previous post for games I've played when their jackpots are their lowest amount with cash option. Buying all 258890850 MegaMillons combinations would cost $258,890,850.00 and payout $54,856,964.00 or 21% of sales. Buying all 292201338 PowerBall combinations would cost $548,402,676.00 and payout $119,466.048.00 or 20% of sales. Buying all 13983816 Ohio's Classic Lotto(6/49) combinations would cost $13,983,816.00 and payout $2,328,790.00 or 16% of sales. B

Neural Net Lottery PickerReply
Hi Adamcustom: I am going to tell you a thing: I think you are completely wrong. The author, I think sincerely,( although I should not talk over this),in my opinion, not believes nothing of what you are saying, about neural nets. I think that his investigations continue in this direction ,(NN), and I think sincerely, that his programs are the best that is have made NEVER in the world of the lotteries. Only to quote: Lsystem2004, Neural Net Lottery Picker, Perceplotr n, PFP3... I t

Mathematics and the LotteryReply
Here is what I found interesting about both big jackpots. Why are some buying software and different programs but yet I have yet to see if it proves to winning especially hitting 4 or 5 numbers. In fact I have found since upgrading that this site is actually useful from different members. Anyway. Lets take the date current for example. I did this the other day and wow should have played it. What I do is I add and subtract any numbers that I think . For ex take 12072016.

I think the systems or methods for predicts the lottery is illusion.Reply
Your reasoning does have limited merit. If you're talking about the large JP-style games, then it is an illusion to believe that a system can accurately predict and produce a win. The caveat to this, though, is ironic in that it actually can be done with an extremely hefty amount of money, time, and the tedious efforts of preparing all the tickets. It can be done and a former poster here by the name of Ronnie316 actually proved it. I give credit where it's due. There are other stories of how

Lottery numbers' combination secrets!Reply
Dear Skyline69, I can tell you the 49 was from the HK Mark6 (of 49 numbers), as previously mentioned. 36+40-49=27 (reason 76 larger than 49 then should - 49 out lol.) Why choose 44? (4+4)=match to the 18 end (units), i think. For the composite numbers all with 8, so choose 35,and 44 is nornal. (42+2). I think in answering, may be wasting much times, that I could not present more important predict skill informations. All of us, can discuss to get more understand about prediction later du

Can math and logic improve chances of winning a jackpot?Reply
garyo1954, You've been posting here long enough to have observed that randomness provides an abundance of evidence that jackpots can be won without systematic methods. Note, for example, the fact that the overwhelming majority of the winners buy QuickPicks. And, of course, you must be aware that philosophically, and logically, the onus is on you and all the others who believe in systems to prove that they have efficacy over reasonable periods of time and at acceptable Confidence Levels.

Can math and logic improve chances of winning a jackpot?Reply
Stack47, Nobody cares, Jimmy. Really. Are you sure? If anyone looks above, don't you think they might notice how much YOU care? Now, why don't you, Garyo1954, and Ronnie316 transfer some of the energy you waste trying to discredit me and other mathematicians to the task of PROVING that past lottery draws can be used to increase your chances of winning jackpots? In other words, [try to] PROVE that the Gambler's Fallacy is not really a fallacy after all. If you can do it, you'll bec

What Does It Take To Win (Mathematically Speaking?)Reply
The only value in back testing a jackpot winning system would be to Pumpi who talks about hitting multiple jackpots and winning billions. Since we already know the system was successful once, there is no value in finding the system might have created other jackpot winners from back testing when we can't go back in time and use it. For lotto and pick-5 games I have a program that shows how many 2, 3, 4, and/or 5 number hits any group of any 16 numbers had over whatever number of past drawings

These are the Normal Rhythm in Mega Millions, which have delivered 24 jackpots, and more to come.

Quick Picks can't match the power of Self PicksReply
'Looking at a Pick 6 game, the average result is 0, 1, or 2 numbers- which doesn't pay at all.' Typical 'apples to oranges' comparison, Pick 5 and Pick 6 are different combinatorially. If you're going to talk about Pick 5, let's keep it on the same page. Don't interject with a Pick 6 game as a diversionary tactic. The majority of your posts have been Pick 5 related, keep it that way. There is this part you forgot to mention, 'You'd better contact the Wisconsin Lottery and tell them they ar
