The Mathematics of Games of Chance
As Louis Bachelier wrote in 1914, "It is almost always gambling that enables one to form a fairly clear idea of a manifestation of chance; it is gambling that gave birth to the calculus of probability; it is to gambling that this calculus owes its first faltering utterances and its most recent developments; it is gambling that allows us to conceive of this calculus in the most general way; it is, therefore, gambling that one must strive to understand, but one should understand it in a philosophi

Mathematics and the LotteryReply
Studies show that though many people participate in gambling as a form of recreation or even as a means to gain an income, gambling, like any behavior which involves variation in brain chemistry, can become a psychologically addictive and harmful behavior in some people. Reinforcement schedules may also make gamblers persist in gambling even after repeated losses. The Russian writer Dostoevsky (himself a problem gambler) portrays in his novella The Gambler the psychological implications of ga

Actually in gambling you can make 3600 dollars from 100 dollars in less than a minute. I saw it many times.There are more loosers than winners, and if there weren't so many loosers, there wouldn't be any winners! You can win or loose at any speed. I don't believe that gambling or playing lotto is a race.

Mathematical SequencesReply
I do research, structural characteristics, and how/ why different elements of gambling relate to different segment of the population. Right now im looking at the lottery games and who plays what and why. Sometimes i provide marketing information, sometimes to explain either the etiology or maintenance of gambling behaviour.

What I don't understand is, why they keep posting the same message, over and over. Do they not understand this a lottery forum where we discuss gambling methods for the different games. Every bet we make is a conditional bet, we win or we lose. There was a poster from Tn, I think Tntea, not sure if that is correct. She came up with this tip about the zero, in Cash 3. This is the way it worked. If the draw contain a 0 , like 806, you would play the 886 866 008 880 600 doubles. One Friday night, i
