  I decided to pick some Powerball numbers and here is what I picked myself:
  
  
  14-24-32-36-45+8

   

  11-22-24-38-58+8

   

  So, did I do a good job studying the numbers and not used the QP?

  Since the numbers turned out to be  25-37-39-61-62  & 11

  My first thought would be no and my second thought would be you might need to do some more homework

  Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing.

  Hey CDanaT,

   

  What could I do to improve? Please give me constructive criticism.

  WM,.... As you may already know,somewhere in the 70% range of all the big dollar jackpot winners are achieved via quick-pick. If I was you and had a desire for a different outcome. Consider this, try 1 of your sets of numbers AND a quick pick. Not that things will have an immediate impact but it does give you an option to ponder. I would also consider the hot numbers for the Megball or PowerBall # but try to not have my chosen the same as my QP. ( for example..your QP generates 1-17-41-53-68 & 4 ,,,Your chosen#'s are 8-21-27-33-56 & 12 ..The 4 is different from the 12 you chose)

  Just remember,this is my thoughts on the subject. Nothing to follow,no tested/proven way to win. Just a different approach. I would consider possibly skipping a draw if your spending has a set limit of $4-$8 a week on PB or MM.... Again,just a theory on my part..ONLY a suggestion to follow,definitely not a science or fact based method, as I have yet to win a jackpot....................Good luck in your decision

  Better luck next time. If you ever are going to buy more than one line of a draw game with a "red ball," be it PB or MM or Lotto America, always pick different numbers. That way you got a better chance of at least getting that bottom prize. I also suggest not playing until the jackpot has rolled over a lot more. The odds are so bad nobody should be playing weekly unless they're already rich.
