The following maybe of interest to 6/49 players:
- As a newbie to filtering I’m really shocked by the large number of failures in the ‘width of line’ and ‘gap’s range’ filters. I thought these were inoffensive, bog standard ‘traditional’ filters. Increasing the passes of these two filters, seems to exponentially increase the number of generated combinations.
- I wanted to resolve the surprisingly different failure rates of LH (2-4) and O/E (2-4) filters during my dry paper runs?!! If the theoretical odds are identical, why the big discrepancies over 30 draws.

A simple illustration of why it’s handy to know the theoretical odds of L/H and O/E, or the lottery player would be deceived by the short-term ‘LH patterns’ in the UK lottery. The above data and more detailed statistical calculations & analysis, enables me to make a more informed decision about filtering limits and playing strategy for L/H & O/E. (NB The academics say over time all things level themselves out).

All the above filtering criteria have performed consistently well over both the “horrendous” last 8 draws and last 30 draws. (Pity the above set of filters doesn’t reduce a wheel down to a playable budget!!!!)
Best of Luck
