Have you noticed, how well you seem to hit when you don't put money on your numbers?

What changes, is it just money or something else?

LMAO!!!!!!! Good one, tiggs.

It's something, that's for sure. I can be 99% positive certain numbers will come up, and if I play it, it won't. lol

People always say that when they quit playing their numbers that that is when their numbers come out.

Also have you noticed that predictions that are not posted anywhere public have a higher chance of winning, but also if the numbers are not bought?

They also say that those who buy lottery tickets are bad at Math, that other-wise they would not buy them.

1 + 1 = ? (Which Devil(s)?)

That brings to mind, T. Tusser 1573 and PT Barnum.

As soon as a number is bought, it is in the lottery computer(s).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One reason that we use computers is because they are so good at keepig track of facts and at making stats.

A short list of such things could maybe be, where, when, what, how, how many and how often.

Don't you just love technology?

A Dollar is still a Dollar.

1 Dollar, 2 Dollars, 3 Dollars, Etc:

1 Billion Dollars a year or more, money does grow on trees, or at least it appears to, or:

Pennies from Heaven?

I usually pick different numbers/combinations every time I play but I do have a set of family birthday numbers(08 14 19 27 34 42) I play when I don't have time to pick some numbers. I checked to see what I would have won if I had played them every drawing in the games I play.

Ohio Classic Lotto:469 drawings would have matched 3 x 6 for $12

Ohio Rolling Cash5:1791 drawings could have matched 2 x 200, matched 3 x 17 and matched 4 x 1 for $670 depending on which 5of6 numbers played.

MegaMillions:801 drawings could have matched 0+1 x 50, 1+1 x 37, 2+1 x 9, 3+0 x 4, 3+1 x 1 and 4+0 x 1 for $629 depending on which numbers I used for megaball.

I would still end up in the hole playing my numbers every drawing. Sure, I would have done better if I had only played them when they hit but who knows when that is until after it happens? Facts are if I knew what was likely to hit, I would come out ahead every time no matter which numbers I played.

Conclusion: Players don't notice the numbers of times their numbers don't hit unless they have money on them but do notice when they hit and they don't money on them creating the illusion that their numbers don't hit only when they put money on them .

Ohio Classic Lotto:469 drawings would have matched 3 x 10 for $20

Ohio Rolling Cash5:1791 drawings could have matched 2 x 191 and matched 3 x 20 for $391 leaving out 42 since it's a 5/39 game.

MegaMillions:801 drawings could have matched 0+1 x 56, 1+1 x 36, 2+1 x 11 and 3+0 x 3 for $351 depending on which numbers I used for megaball.

Exactly. That is precisely WHY the ticket terminals and RNG (or results computer) should NOT be connected...not until AFTER the draw, or they could just have a place to enter the winning numbers into the terminal computer system!!!!

It's a cosmic thing, lotto balls (and RNGs) have eyes, ears, and no heart. They know what you play and when you don't play it and then let it hit.

Another way the Lottey Fairy entertains herself.

Cards and dice do this, too.

Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners.

There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

Sometimes I think if I picked my numbers and then gave to someone else to play or not, that maybe I

might hit more often. Picking #"s and playing for real, influences your choices. If you are just playing on paper,

you may be more open and less restricted or stressed.

Here's the thing though, when you bet your mind you lose your mind.

Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners.
