  what I mean is, since 15 was the PB last Saturday. Will you play this number again for Wednesday? Seems like about every 2 months there are back to back draws.

  I definitely will not play the last draw numbers, but I will accept the same numbers from quick picks. Nevertheless, I remember there was a time one same number was picked in three consecutive draws on Mega Millions. Even the machine goes crazy sometime.

  Just play who knows what will come up next.

  why on earth don't you simply track the numbers that hit?

  If you did, you would see repeat numbers are rampant - more so than I have seen in 5 years.

  You almost HAVE to pick a repeat whiteball number.

  You almost HAVE to pick a repeat whiteball number.

   Just a few weeks back, "52" hit in four back-to-back draws.  Good example on repeats - Powerball's last 4 draws.

   

                  05-22-34-41-57    +  31
               13-34-40-47-57    +  11
               16-23-25-49-58    +  20
               12-22-25-28-44    +  24

  As of today, we have had repeat numbers in 11 straight games, the two games prior to that we did not have any, and then prior to that we had repeats in five out of six games.

  From 8/15 to 2/6 we had repeats in roughly 41 of 51 games, with a stretches of 6, 8 and 11 games along with some 2-3-4-5's.

  We have had a game where three numbers repeated, and several games where two numbers repeated.

  Like I said, you almost HAVE to pick a repeat number.

  What do 57 and 25 have to do with 52?

  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.
