vtrac is really easy. It's not hard at all. It is just taking the 10 draw numbers, which everyone knows is 0 - 9.
That's 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. Now vtracs is grouping those 10 digits, into 5. It makes it easier to track.
Here's they vtrac key that I always refer to.
vT #
1 : 0 5
2 : 1 6
3 : 2 7
4 : 3 8
5 : 4 9
So now, instead of tracking 10 different numbers, you're only tracking 5. cuts it in half.
So let's say you wanted to track pairs, how many are there? There's like 55 pairs right.
Well if you track them with vtracs, it'll be much less.
11 12 13 14 15 22 23 24 25 33 34 35 44 45 55
Now, say vtrac pair 23 was overdue, that's pairs 12 17 62 67.
As I was saying before, most hits occur within SUMs 10 through 18 in regular numbers.
vtrac SUMs hit within 7 and 11. Again, way less to track.
So let's say vtrac sum 11 was due. You know vtrac pair 25 was due.
2+5=7, need 4 more. 25+45, 245= 11. That's one combo you could play.
By the way, don't bother tracking pairs. I think it's a waste of time. I'm just explaining.
Once you understand this, I'll explain more ways on how to get your picks.
Also, forget tracking pairs. the only thing you need to track IMO, is just vtrac
SUMs. When deb posts her pairs, just convert them to vtrac, and them put them together.
For example, the pairs she posted for today
20-21-23-25-26-28 40-41-43-45-46-48 22-44
31 32 34 31 32 34 51 52 54 51 52 54
70-71-73-75-76-78 90-91-93-95-96-98 77-99
31 32 34 31 32 34 51 52 54 51 52 54
Take out the repeats, only left with 6.
Convert to vtrac
Remember the little vtrac Key from above:
1: 0 5
2: 1 6
3: 2 7
4: 3 8
5: 4 9
31 32 34
51 52 54
As you can see, I just took her 28 pairs, and brought them down to 6!
Next, just put them together, starting from left to right. This is what we get.
312 314 315 324 325 345 512 514 524
Next, add them up, so you get the vtrac SUMs
312 314 315 324 325 345 512 514 524
6 8 9 9 10 12 8 10 11
What came out today? 632, which is vtrac 243, which is sum 9. it was out only 2
draws, so I didn't have it. But vtrac SUM 11 is overdue for 7 draws, so to keep costs low, you could
only play that one. So in this case, as you can see above, there's only one vtrac combo
that adds up to 11, awesome. That means only 8 numbers to play for box hits.
413 418 463 468 913 918 963 668
Then of course, you can look at Flats Keys she posts under, and filter using those:
Keys, 2 3 7 8. In this case, all the numbers have the keys. so Just play those 8 numbers
for a box hit.
I will end here, I know I'm repeating myself multiple times in this thread, but I'm just trying to help you guys
because at one point, I was getting frustrated as well.
Let's recap.
1) Look for when Deb posts her pairs.
2) Convert her pairs to vtrac Pairs, should end up with only 6 pairs.
3) put the pairs together, should end up with 9 vtrac combos.
4) Add up the vtrac combos, and get the SUMs.
5) on your paper where you're tracking vtrac SUMs, find which one is overdue.
There's only 5, so think of it as 1 in 5 chances of winning a box hit. To save you time
here's the current skips for the vtracs. 7: 1, 8: 2, 9: 0, 10: 4, 11: 8. So vtrac 11 is overdue.
Once you get used to this, I will teach you how to get straight hits.
