Drawing error leads lottery officials to pay on two numbersNews Story
It is the state lotterys equivalent of a poker dealer forgetting a few cards from the deck.A missing nine ball led to lottery officials honoring two winning numbers for yesterday afternoons Tri-State Pick 3 game. The first numbers drawn were 7-2-2. When the mistake was caught, officials drew again: 1-9-9.Unfortunately, we cant prepare for every circumstance or happenstance, said Maura McCann, a spokesman for the lottery who has been doing the evening drawing for 15 years. It is very infrequent,

Probability of a rollover in PB and MMReply
First Lottobuddy, Thanx for the link. It's a good one and I've bookmarked it.Your suggestions are well taken. I generally do not attempt a level of refinement you indicate in your calculations, but, as I've said, rely on moving averages of sales figures from long experience with the matter as described recently in this thread. I know that (since the week contains an odd number of days) that it makes a difference whether a drawing is on a Saturday or a Wednesday. Other factors that effect

WIN D... the 3 digit IS the barn, the penny's center would be the big jackpot games...I think that the reason most systems fail is that the initial design goal is flawed or not focused enough.MikeK... In the past, I have tried to use the forecasting functions in excel, but after several dozen draawings, it tends to align itself with the arithmetic mean of the numbers (average). Even in experimentation with how many draws to include, results that were positive were not repeatable. I have also tri

Lotto Sync test II retryReply
Hypersoniq:I do not agree with your thing. a 6 out of just 6 numbers is not impossible, but it is highly unrealistic to set this as your goal. Randomness should have a deterministic character in order to make this work out. (this can not be true, because sooner or later lotto results would get into a loop and repeat exactly the same outcomes !!). In my opinion it is not deterministic but probabilistic or partly both. The same thing can be seen in genetics. The deterministic part makes us humans

North Carolina: 11/1 - 11/30/2019Reply
https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/329861/6121992 Click on the link and scroll on down to where she showed that 612 hit in NC the next day. She posted it on the 26th and 612 hit for the night draw on the 27th. She has it hi-lighted but didn't hi-light all of the 216's in the chart just one of them. There was no error there if that is what you're referring to. And if it was about 555 hitting in an error...it was in 2008 2009 on Christmas day as I showed on the Calendar that I p

Some N.C. Carolina Cash 5 lottery winners are due a little moreNews Story
The N.C. Education Lottery says 48 Carolina Cash 5 game winners received $4 less than they actually won. In Monday's drawing, 48 tickets matched four of the five winning numbers and should have won a prize of $256. Players with those tickets got $252, lottery officials said. The winners beat odds of 1 in 4,163. The mistake resulted from human error involving the calculations of what the pari-mutuel prize would be, lottery Executive Director Alice Garland said. With a pari-mutuel prize, the

Rl's daily game softwareReply
Hi All I received a PM from a member in AZ stating that he got a error when loading the state. The reason for the error is that the Default game is the P-3 mid-day and since AZ does not have a mid-day draw there are no sets to load which is the error. Anyone who is having the same problem just keep clicking the Yes to continue until the program loads. Once the program loads then select a valid drawing from the top menu. You only have to do this once unless you select a game for wh
