All States Data For 2002 = 885 EntriesReply
I know it's almost impossible to play all the numbers for all the drawings for all states. I have never said people actually do this. What I have done in the past is calculate the odds of straight and boxed hits for the number of predictions presented.

To DrBLW,How did you calculate your odds reduction after applying your general observations. I have a similar system that look at gaps, sums, ranges, general positions of numbers and etc and best improvement I've calculated in a 649 game is 1:14M to ~1:11M. I wrote a little loop in GWBasic which print all the possible combinations and only count the ones within preset parameters which takes a while.RJOh

I am curious, what do you calculate the differenceis in the annuity vs. lump sum? I assume you can investit and make more than the annuity, but are thereare any case studies on the subject about what lump sumwinners have actually made or lost I can read about? Personally, I think most people would be so glad tobeat the awful odds that they wouldn't get too upsetif they did have to take the annuity - I'm sure itwouldn't bother me.

odds are odds....regardless of coincidencesReply
Not true. The overlapping numbers happen when you calculate all 1,000,000 possibilities. i.e., 1-2-3-4-5 is possibility #1, 1-2-3-4-6 is possibility #2, etc. If you buy both tickets you will have made your odds 2 in 1,000,000, even though 4 out of 5 numbers overlap.-Todd

Winning the lottery with maxim issueReply
Are you sure it didn't state there was a way to accurately calculate your odds of picking the next winning combinations using the formula n!/k!(n-k)!. ! stands for factoral and that fuction would be on a scientific calculator. With that formula, you can calculate the total numbers of combinations possible.RJOh

My digit system for pick-5 or pick-6 lotteryReply
Hello Somethings to consider using this system In a 5-39 game if you play ID = 2 the only 3 digits that can make 5 or more numbers are the digits 1-2-3 There are 3 combos of 2 that can be taken from these digits 1-2, 1,3, 2,3. However. choice #1. 1-2 make the numbers 01-02-11-12-21-22. choice #2. 1-3 make the numbers 01-03-11-13-31-33. choice #3. 2-3 make the numbers 02-03-22-23-32-33. In a 5-39 lottery If ID = 2, only digits 1-2-3 only are capable of producin

Mathmatical AverageReply
CARBOB I figured it out, If your looking for methods of reducing sets or trying to find patterns then remember this any method that you use that increases the odds from where you started is a step in the wrong direction. consider this if you play ID = 2 the only 4 digits that can make 5 or more numbers are the digits 1-2-3 There are 3 combos of 2 that can be taken from these digits 1-2, 1,3, 2,3. However. choice #1. 1-2 make the numbers 01-02-11-12-21-22. choice #2. 1-

If you calculate the odds yourself the top prize is 1:705,432 odds. So whoever wrote that press release was pulling that out of .....somewhere I would hope someone who is not in-tuned with lotto things wouldn't see those odds figures and be mislead about the top prize chances.

WHO is going to show you how to win w/ positive R.O.I. Long termReply
No one can overcome the odds. The people who win are just lucky. It doesn't matter which numbers you pick. Any one of the 80 ping pong balls in the hopper can be drawn with exactly the same chance of being drawn. The Baccarrat and Roulette past result displays are there to fool people into playing, thinking that they will have an edge if they play based on past results. The fact is that IT DOESN'T MATTER! I do play progressive keno when the jackpot gets high enough, but that's pretty rare.
