Hi Mouche,
Thanks for your comments and advice. I am not a big Gail Howard fan. I have two of her books but in my opinion, there is not much difference between her and Steve Player, Robert Serotic, Professor Jones and all the other supposed wheeling experts. The Bottom line is many can and have developed wheels over the years. Some use letters and some use numbers. I have developed my own wheels within excel spreadsheets that work just as well. I actually prefer the wheels on the Lottery Post website now because Todd has programmed an auto sort function. When I use my own wheels, I have to sort my results manually and that is a pain. Until Gail or any of the above mentioned authors can win not one or two, but three or more jackpots personally and show the validity of their systems, then in my opinion it is all marketing and hype to me. Some may argue that Steve Player has won a few jackpots using his systems. This is true. But, has anyone kept up with how much he spends when playing his systems as well? As I stated in an earlier post, I think we should concentrate more on how we pick the numbers we plug into the wheels, instead of the wheels themselves. I have won 5 of 6 in a Lotto game by purchasing 5, tickets, another time purchasing 20 tickets and yet another time purchasing around 100 tickets. All three times I used a different wheel. The deciding factor all three times was not the wheels, it was the numbers I put in them.
As for your addition and deduction theory, I find it very interesting and think you should continue to pursue it. I read about that theory at about the same time I was studying the strategy of playing numbers with the same ending digits. My philosophy is if it works for you, then continue to explore that method until you either win something substantial, or see no fruits and feel it is time to move on and try new methods. I have tried what you are considering and it did not work for me, or at least not as consistently as I would have liked. That does not mean it may not work for you. Stay at it and let me know what happens. I love to hear about other’s successes.
As far as my little Key number experiment here, I have tried it 6 evenings and hit the key number twice in 6 nights. That is not the results or consistency I was hoping for. I will adjust my strategy a bit and try something new. If the results are good, I will definitely share them with everyone. If not, I will keep trying. I have been at this for years and I know for me when it is time to adjust my strategies, or move on all together. I will be upgrading my membership to Platinum status so that I can utilize Todd’s fine abbreviated wheels. I think the Key wheels are awesome, but for the purpose of my experiment, the abbreviated wheels might be more forgiving. Stay tuned for my results and feedback.
Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and support.
Besitos,
