How Long Do YOU Tend To Play A "Hunch" Number?Reply
I don't normally play the Pick4, but in the Pick 3 the most I will play a number is 6 days. And thats only if I really feel good about it. Otherwise I pick new numbers for every draw, and yes they have come in a few days later or on the other drawing. That happens to everyone. BTW, a few years ago I fell in love with a Pick 4 number. I played it every day for 4 months and then gave up on it. And then it hit... 2 1/2 YEARS later!!!

Can I Write My Lottery Losing Tickets Off If I Have Saved Them During The Year?Reply
I would like to add that you can go to the IRS website and look up gambling loses for more details.

Anyone else having a down time?Reply
Maybe you just need to stop playing your regular #'s for awhile. Or get some new regular #'s. Personally I don't have any regulars. Too many times they go months without hitting and you spend all your $$$ on nothing. I expect to win every time I play, of course I don't but if you can't be positive about it why play? Some days I look at my charts and I just don't feel it so I take a draw off. Dry spells happen so don't sweat it, besides it gives you a chance to try a different strategy. Good

Are pre-draws corrupting your lottery strategy ?Reply
Besides, if you can't get them (pre draws) what good will they do? You can't analyze info that you don't have, so why even worry about them? I would be interestered in looking at them though just to see if the sequence I was playing came out, but if the states don't really go out of their way to publish them, then they don't really help anyone.

One simple question. Since most states do not make the pre draw results readily available early enough before the drawings to use them anyway, how are we supposed to use them in making our picks for that draw?

Is Illinois Lottery genuinely random?Reply
You don't have to know which days to skip, just play all 4 days if it doesn't hit by then drop it. But often the pattern/ sequence will change by then anyway. It all depends on the numbers. See ya.

There's an old saying: don't knock it if you haven't tried it. If qp's and astrology work for you then go for it. There's over 121,000 members on LP and probabably just as many systems. Some work well some don't, if you find a good one then stick with it till you find something better. BTW. check out my signature.. Good Luck!!!

The sequences don't always fall on consecutive days. Sometimes they may skip a day or two or three or four. You play it for a few days if it doesn't hit then drop it. That is just the nature of it, study it, look for it and you will see it. You said you don't play a lot of pick3, well that is all I play and it works for me. So I ask again, how do you pick your numbers?
