Well because of the wheel I used the only way to ensure a single digit in every game would have meant making it a power number. Which btw had I chosen one it would have been #3, but I went with the radical play instead. I thought about a 3-19-33 power play first but changed my mind. We'll see which one would have been better tonight.

You're right. I didn't know about 'LotteryPost' until I came to China! I didn't realize there was so many knowledgable people here.So I just give my 'two cents' maybe to help somebody. I know it's hard to just stick with the gang of 23 and that's the whole point. It's not for everybody but there's a Jackpot waiting to be claimed.Feel feel to post some sets with just the 'special 23' if you like. Thanks again.
"I know it's hard to just stick with the gang of 23".....
Truer words were never written, JP!!!
I've been sticking to it for the last three or four days, and I haven't even hit a crummy Free Play.
But I do have faith! And I'm in again tonite, I played a line with 3 - 6, and another with 6 - 9. I too am looking for two single digit numbers to show soon. I even got the power number of 18 on both lines...
But I do think I'm going through Take5 withdrawal... man do I wanna play 25... It's a very long time gone... GF
PS My college-aged daughters are home from school for Easter. I told 'em about the gang of 23... they think I'm nuts, but they dont know squat about playin' the lottery. All I know is if I hit for some serious cash, those two will be in line lookin' for some of it. Right behind my wife. Aint none of 'em gettin' a dime.

Yeah I know. You don't have to play only the 'gang of 23'. You can play #25 but here on this thread, he/she won't be welcome. Ha..ha. You know what I think? I think that the 'Lottery' knows that our instincts is to switch numbers and sets. There by eluding us from hitting and lining their pockets more. By all means Givefive, play what you feel. There were 4 numbers from the 'gang of 23' in just a few days. Unfortunately I didn't select them for my set by you get the idea. It proves my point about just playing a certain set of numbers. Isn't it easier to focus on 23 than 39? But of course! Hang in there buddy.

Another thing I wanted to add Givefive is that 3-4 days is not enough time to feel and see if a strategy works or not. I would give it 2 weeks to 3. Of course it all depends on your budget. Heck, you don't even have to play and just observe. When you feel the time is right, you jump in.

I agree, 3 or 4 days doesn't prove whether or not any strategy works.
To tell you the truth, I bought my normal "Take5 fix" for tonight, last Tuesday night. I'm playing the brand new New England States game, Lucky For Life. We drove over to Connecticut on Tuesday night to pick up one of my daughters at school. I stopped in a gas station and bought a ticket. The drawing is tonite. I played two lines of L4L, cost me 4 bucks. If I hit a JP playing that, it's $7,000 a week for life. I wish The NY State Lottery was partcipating in that game, but they arent.
Today, I bought two lines of Take5 for tonite. I used the gang of 23, I didnt stray from the strategy. Not sure if I'll play tomorrow night or not, we'll see. That's because my Jeep's radiator sprung a leak. My mechanic says it'll be 400 bucks for a new radiator. It goes in the repair shop on Monday. So my Take5 budget is kinda weak right now. I'll think I start thinking positively, and that'll cause me to win a JP tonite, in which case I wont fix the Jeep, I'll just trade it in on a new car!!!!

Good attitude! Listen, if you are desperate to win then 'gambling' isn't the way to go. Games of chance is exactly what it says. Take care of the things that are important first, food, shelter, wife, kids,family, your dog or cat, cars and then if you have some money to spend, play the lottery. All it takes is a buck or two. Don't lose sight of that. I sometimes read posts of people saying they need a win to pay there rent, bills, etc. and think that playing the lottery is the answer. Unfortunately for most of us it isn't. So keep it real and have fun. Another thing I want to say and I don't mean any disrepect to whomever is reading this. The 'gang of 23' was something that I thought of and decided to share because 1.That's whatLotterypost is about, sharing.2.Test drive it with others andget member's opinions and criticizisms. No one gets more excited then me when I hear that somebody won something with my numbers or Feisty's or Canjun's numbers, etc. It's a good feeling and that's what we want to emphasize. Remember folks, playing the 'gang of 23' is voluntary. You haven't been drafted yet.Good luck to those who play!

Thankfully, I'm not desparate to win. (At least not yet anyway) I dont think I know anyone who might be, but these days, you never know. I play Take5 for the fun of it. There's no doubt in my mind that I'd like to know what it's like to win a large sum of money, but if I dont, then that just means I didnt win. I know 2 people that won a Take5 JP. Both told me that their lives didnt change very drastically. They both said they were thrilled, and happy to have the money, but both are still workin for a living.
I play Mega and PowerBall with a group of people I work with, but we only play 2 bucks per person, and only when The JP is big. It looks like PB might go over 100 million soon, and if the guys want to play, then I'll collect the money and go buy the tickets. There's 15 of us that play. We played 30 lines of QP's in that last big Mega JP, and I think we had maybe 3 or 4 numbers on all of those lines. Those were some of the ugliest QP's I ever saw.
I also play Sweet Million, but only when they have a promotion on it. But even then, I'll only play once a week. Recently, just for the fun of it, I gave my daughter who goes to college in Connecticut 40 bucks, and told her to buy me some Lucky For Life tickets, whenever I send her some numbers. I'll bet you 50 bucks she spent that money in some college bar! I'll be shocked if she actually has any of that money left to buy me some tickets.
If I won a Take5 JP, I really dont know what I'd do with the money. I'd pay some bills, and maybe my wife and I could take a vacation for a week. But other than that, I'm not sure how I'd spend it. I guess I'd give some to my daughters for their school stuff too.

Like I said You my friend are grounded and realistic. Getting 4 of 5 isn't bad either especially in New York becuase sometimes it can be over 800 bucks. So if you can get 4 of 5 consistantly, that's good too. College kids will be college kids. The last thing she'll think about is Lottery for sure. It's (almost) all about the partying. It's quite normal. Anyway,let's see what numbers are drawn in a few hours. Let's have fun!
So if anyone in NJ played these they would be doing the happy dance (6-16-17-29-33) ... NY not so much! (2-6-17-30-35) They got stuck at the toll booth or something.

Analysis:
Last night's (4/6) numbers was 2-6-17-30-35. A 'zero' came out (30) along with one from the 'subset'. From now on I will refer these numbers: 3-6-10-13-16-20-23-26-30-33-36 as 'subset' numbers instead of reposting them. So as you can see, if you are going to play a 'zero' digit number always include at least 1 or more from the subset. Tomorrow we should see from 2 to 3 from the subset(that's my feeling). That 3 is looking pretty good right about now. There were 2 single digits and 3 double digits which is normal. Unfortunately it was only the 6 for us of the single digits. We did have one power number which along with the 30 gave us 6 Free Plays from my set. No twenties so look out for at least 2 to show. There was only one teen look for 2 or even 3 to show. The teens have really been weak of late so I would put more into them. Keep the3 & 9 in your play because the single digit will be there tomorrow. Just wanted to add the followers:
After 6 falls 26,3 follows
After 30 falls 26,18 follows
I will be posting a new set shortly! Stay Tune! Don't get discouraged!We're onto something here.

Nice picks for Jersey Fiesty!
Ya know, I think if somebody hits a JP using a line of numbers from this thread, it will go totally ballistic. It's being looked at alot as it is now.
As for me, I played two lines from the gang, I hit 2 FP's.

Agreed. Feisty1's got it going on! You see GiveFive, you're doing better already. Two FP's is a start. I'm feeling at least 3 from the 'gang of 23' for tonight.
