Sorry, I was a little short pointing out the advantages of the three key number wheel for all the numbers.
There are only a handful of wheels that deserve special attention, this wheel is one of them.
First of all, you can carry the wheel pointers in your head, work it out on a tail napkin wherever you go.
The wheel works for all Pick-5 and Pick-6 games, for most within a line or two more or less.
When we're talking about 16 lines for a 4# prize, I should have pointed out we're talking about three 4# prizes !!! We are playing ALL the numbers, if three are key, the worst you can do is have the other three winning numbers scattered among the remaining 46, that means you must win three 4# prizes and 13 - 3# prizes.
When you have the three key numbers correct, nothing prdvents one of those four number guaranteed lines from having 5 or all 6 winning numbers !!!
When you win three 4# prizes worth roughly $100.00 that's $300.00 plus the 13 - 3# prizes, divide 16 into $365. you have 23 tries to get the three key numbers correct and you'll break even over all 23 when you do !!!
What about when you have two of the three key numbers correct? Well that means 4 - 3# lines are guaranteed or you could still win a 4# or 5# prize plus some 3#'s.
What about when you have only one of the three key numbers correct? Nothing is guaranteed, but there is still a chance of 3# and 4# in a line.
Even with no key numbers, there is still a smaller chance of a 3# win(s).
If you think about it, what are the odds of getting three numbers out of six correct over thirty tries if you carefully select your numbers perhaps from the top five or ten your software predicts?
What if it takes you sixty draws and you only get half your money back, is that worse then you're doing now? Maybe the oposite happens and you get a 5# win that pays for the next year of play.

This wheel deserves a second look. BobP
