Question about quick picksReply
To Harry Covenant, I'm not from your area but if the store operators there are like they are here, it would be supprising to me that the poor computer could add let alone randomize and send the right information via ether and not have a hiccup or two getting there. I have observed how the key puncher cleans these poor, uneducated terminals and I must say in all honesty that a seven year old can do better without instructions. High math or not a machine is only as good as it is cared for. From

Pick 5 or 5 ball lotteryReply
well here is 2 cents more for what it is worth. Here in Mass.we play the 5/35 mass cash. This silly idea was given to me by a player who has hit 5/5 twice for a payoff of 100,000 in 2 yrs time. All he does is take the previous number and steps up down each digits. ex; say the number is 2 6 9 17 27. his next play would be step up to 3,down to 5,up to 10,down to 16,up to 28. I guess it is as good as a quick pick. Whatever works more power to him. Maybe this might just work in some other states too

RJ one of the other reasons i dislike pools is the avoidance of problems between people. i want to preserve relationships, not destroy them. because money changes people so easily, i want to avoid all that ugliness. some people function (behave) well in a pool situation after a win. alot do not. if i have control i at least have a better chance at friend preservation . i also realize the inevitable, that people are going to get jealous and when you don't give them what they want, they ja

Any software that wins?Reply
WHAT ?!?!?! No software can predict numbers. I play powerball, and I read the stories of people who won, and AT LEAST 90% of them won using a quick pick ticket. Every combination has an equal chance of winning. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 has the same chance of being selected as 05 - 43 - 46 - 02 - 13 - 15 . As someone who plays powerball consistently, (unlike most people who wait until the jackpot reaches a certain point), I learned that a smart approach is to avoid select

Any software that wins?Reply
Well, here is my last post on this subject. Neither of the software programs produced even a 3 out of 6 win out of 15 tickets first time and 20 tickets second time. Gee that is $35 that could have been put towards quick pics which actually drew more correct numbers although they didn't produce a 3 out of 6 either, during this test. I rest my case-software is no better or worse than quick picks. Save your money-buy a quick pick instead. Like I said this is last post on subject, my mind is made up

We will drop these odds down to 1

Any software that wins?
Is there really any software that has actually won a lottery? Most winners I read about have won with quick picks. I play the Georgia Lottery games 4,5 and 6 numbers. I have used many software programs that claim that they will accurately pick the numbers and have found them to not even be close to a 3 out of 5 or 6 win. Has anyone on here ever won consistently using PC software and if so, what is the name of it or where can I find it? Thanks in advance for any help given.

OddsReply
Thats the correct conclusion.I see why this point missed by lotto players since they don't buy the same number combination twice for the same draw. Why would they, lol.If however you just simply allow the lotto terminal to generate two tickets, a la quick pick , then the second ticket *could* come up as the same combination.If the game has odds of 1 in 1,000,000 that means, on the average, 999,999 times out of 1,000,000 you will lose. Having a second ticket, with a different combination, means,
