First time poster here. Not big on gambling, but i do enjoy crunching and predicting numbers.
I've recently went out and bought several hundred daily keno tickets here in Washington for research purposes knowing that its a rigged game and i'll lose most likely every dollar. All the tickets were 1 dollar bets, 10 numbers, all quick picks.
Here's the payout table for Washington Daily Keno for 10 spot on 1 and 5 dollar bets.

Out of the 300ish tickets that i bought, only 1 had 0 winning numbers which resulted in a $3 dollar win. 4 tickets had 6 winning numbers, $5 each. thats it. $23 dollars won on spending $300.
The other 295 tickets had between 1 and 4 winning numbers each with 3 being the average and only a handful had 1.
My point is. Is there a software or a way you can input all the numbers from the tickets and figure out which sets they're obviously avoiding? Go out and buy something like 500 quick pick tickets, they have to be 10 numbers because you know 99% of tickets will have at least 1 winning number, come home, input the numbers into some kind of software, figure out the number set that will pay out the least and go play those numbers that same day. could this possibly work?
