What are the odds
We're reposting with a little change for Odds calculation.
Factorial - n! = n (n -1) (n - 2) ... 3 2 1 and 0! = 1
Permutation - P(n, r) = n! / (n - r)!
Combination - C(n, r) = P(n, r) / r!
Probability of Win - Wp(n, r, w) = (C(r, w) C(n - r, r - w)) / C(n, r)
Odds to Win - Wo(n, r, w) is 1 in (1 - Wp(n, r, w)) / Wp(n, r, w)
n - total numbers in lottery pool
r - pick size from the pool of numbers
w - winning drawn numbers in a played combo

Litigation Proofing your lottery pool
schmuckatelly,
Here is my logic (Imay be wrong)
I send copies to all for a few reasons.
I could very well have made a mistake and I want that person to catch it . The title of the email reads check your names . That would mean 1 of 2 things. I lost the actual collection list and simply forgot them (remember it is maybe 1 or 2 of 4 turdheads) or they or myself are lying. Remember they are not to give me there $20 without seeing me check their name off the list.
I also want them t

wheel algorithms?
The wheel you've generated should have the additional information as follows:
Wheel
- Pick 5
- 9 Numbers
- 5 Combinations
- 3.968254% Coverage of 126 Combinations
Condition
- If 4 Drawn Numbers are in the Set of 9 Numbers,
- Then at least 1 Combination has 3 Winning Numbers.

I can predict one number for sure in a random game
Logic states otherwise
Assuming were talking a 5/56 game
5/56 = 3,819,816 total combinations with each ball appearing 341,055 times within the total combinations
3,819,816 / 341,055 = 11.2 to 1
Each time a number is drawn the pool and pick reduces
Now we have 4 remaining to find a pool of 55
4/55 =341,055
In the 341,055 total combinations each ball appears 24,804 times
341,055/ 24,804 = 13.75 to 1
or would could say 55/4 = 13.75 to 1
Now we have 3 remainin

Pick 4 based on string $028137465$
but I have to admit, I got lost when you made the second post which seems to be about pick 3, sub , base and recurs .
The string is compressed of chart 1 below (https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/252034), and is reduced to the pool size 0-8. I want you to take a glance of two months of State draw history, check combo draws and you realise that the frequency of drawn digits is between 0-6(You just reduced the pool size, see draws in red), so why not focus on that, but i decided to stretch it

Hi Guys
I have gotten several PM's and a few have posted their interest in forming a pool so here is what I would
like to do first. Since I would like to form a sort of super pool so to say I would like any interested members
to choose there weapons. Each person that has used DM for a while should be finding that they have filters
digits etc... that they are very good at and what I would like is for people to sort of lay claim to what they
feel that they are good at hitting. Examp

RL's Digit Master Pro Big Game software download.
Hi again
In the next version I will include the option to export the filter settings to a text file which can be copied /
pasted making it easy to share setup information. Remember that you never have to play and with lottery
patience is a virtue. My first goal or pointer would be the first and last two groups, If I feel I can set these
four corect I am going to win some money, if not I may not play at all. Never let the upper digits run wild,
at least set them to 0/1 or 0/2 if in

Lottery's biggest loser: Albany man passed on office pool that won $319M jackpot
Man could have been 8th winner; decided not to play because he didn't feel lucky
Includes video report
The group of seven lottery pool players that won last week's $319 million Mega Millions jackpot could have had an eighth member, but one unlucky man made a choice that cost him millions.
The New York co-worker who regularly played in the office pool opted out on the night they had the winning ticket, according to an Albany, N.Y., deli owner who knows the winners.

Are Auto Picks for Mega Millions and Power Balls Generated at The Retailer's Terminal?
Wai....wait....you're typing so fast and furious and then point out you are not making a public appeal to have your English graded? Very interesting. So, ummmmm, jimmy-like.
Since you've estalished you want a reasonable discussion, I'll put my points on the table. We'll use your original post to do so. I'm less tactful than Todd who suggested you speak to the lottery director. And I will say straight up, I see no evidence that you have made any effort to get direct answers from Michigan. ANY
