Yeah, that's what I am finding too. Hardly any information that can be used to improve estimation.
However, I did find a little something (maybe), emphasis on little. Using Bayesean optimal estimation with 1st and 2nd order statistics, I did find one method with the following white ball [0W 1W 2W 3W 4W 5W] performance for Powerball new white balls.
Percent Total Matches = [59.064327 33.918129 5.263158 1.754386 0.000000 0.000000], NumTests = 171
Expected Percent Matches for Powerball white balls = [67.84%, 28.27%, 3.7%, 0.179% ep ep]
Not statistically significant, but it was the best performance I saw in terms of payoff. Three 3W hits over 171 tests.
Another method had 11% 2W hits and one 3W hit over 121 tests.
Percent Total Matches = [62.809917 24.793388 11.570248 0.826446 0.000000 0.000000], NumTests = 121
Still losing money hand over fist, unless you are one of the lucky 5 or 6 ball winners, which is super rare.
