  Excel-make your own form. bBy doing this, you can copy into another form for backtesting specific things.

  I track everything...... draws. roots, pairs, front pair sums, last digit sums. vtrac, vsums.

  Did you do your tracking today ??

  So you need to validate a system, then the best test is the prediction board!

  I agree, however you want to make sure it works before putting it out there. Also would the lottery commissions pay attention if someone were to say nail a daily game consistently with only 10 picks?

  They wouldn't know how many tickets you buy. If its the Pick 3 they wouldn't know who it was. If you were cashing P4

  straights many, many, times a month, they might think you were cashing tickets for some one else to help them avoid

  child support or something like that. If there is a retailer / one store owner cashing an exceptional number of P4 winners

  they have been accused of that. It's been on the News forum here before. The lottery would probably say: "The odds are

  10,000 to 1. How could one person hit that much?"      If I ever run into that "problem" I'll be sure and let every one

  know what happened.

  There is a loophole if the person registers with the IRS as a professional gambler and pay its taxes on a 1099 they can get away with it cashing in multiples pick 4 winnings a month, instead of giving their social to tax their winning ticket they give their self employed tax id to the lottery agent at the lottery office.
