  I'm thinking about how to answer this the right way drsan

  Sometimes you do the right thing just because it’s right.

  Life's a game of mathematics, if you can't figure that out I don't know what to tell you.

  Okay,SOLEDAD thanks, I think we can use statistics all over
    And by positions by positions, the problem that statistics
    Not of reference point

  Repetitions and delays from a reference, the last draw?

  Last draw can sometimes interfere with what's already going on. Although the statistics change,  the game is fluid so therefore must not include everything, must eliminate statistics to find a pattern. And perhaps what you said follow digits. Statistics benchmark still pondering drsan.

  Hello, SOLEDAD, we need north or benchmark
    The last draw is like a seed inside the dna has all the trees we have to think backwards, how to structure the genetic dna of the last draw?

  You can use statistics correctly in a lottery by using them to realize exactly how remote your chance of winning a large prize are.

  A statistics geek can play the lottery every day and not win. Someone's Grandma who never drinks and only plays the lottery when she feels like playing can hit big. The lesson to be learned by all of us at LP is how does the lucky Grandma win.

  Mostly Grandma won because she bought a ticket.  G5

  Hello edg and quick, so ended up hoping to win even!
  I thought 75% was math and 25% random
  Statistics by position also not?
    Neither a reference point, nor the last dna,?

  Ok mathematically, we can go up to a certain point or 75%
    Luck is 25%. So the focus is where math studies can go
     To fix numbers and part luck
    Statistics, ssynchronicities, mathematics 75% luck 25%
  Like 80/20 pareto law
