I have voted for 50 picks, because that is currently the maximum (with a Platinum membership).

I would think 50 should me more than enough for most people around here who are actually picking their numbers and not just posting many many quick picks and may not be actually playing all those combinations.

It might be interesting to see what some people can do with a reasonable and responsible larger playing budget for a club or office pool where the limit isn't personal. BobP

With jackpot games and the amount of combinations in them posting in the forum 500 and up combinations would be a very low percentage of the possible combinations.
You are looking at the possibility of millions in the jackpot games.

Numbers are where you find them.

I would like only 5 picks maximum.
We all looking for prediction.......how can you call choosing 50 numbers be a good prediction .
If I was choosing 50 numbers , I would'nt even remember which number I had post to play. That cost too much also.
Do you play all 50 numbers that you post.
Right now I play 631 everyday until due to come . I do believe that number will come very very soon.......I spend between 1$ to 6$ on that number because I have a good feeling the number is coming for sure. That's what I call trying to predict the number to come......And I choose that number because of the previous winning month for that number
I spend an other 1$ on 608 because i believe the number with a (0 ) will be with a 6 and 8 ......and this one is also due very soon.
Good luck to all

I voted for 10 picks because that is reasonable enough for the average player to actually play. Show me a player who plays 50 combos a draw and ends up making a profit and I'll be convinced. I'm not saying it is impossible, but I never saw it happen for two years at Maybell's where the predictions were unlimited and win ratios were tallied for each predictor. In fact the more picks, the lower the win ratio seemed to be the trend.

Posted 4/6: IL Pick 3 midday and evening until they hit: 555, 347 (str8).

Yes, 10 picks is reasonable it only takes one pick to win. With 10 picks you get a chance to cover your bases. I see people predicting the same numbers for every state. And with everybody predicting this way you'd think there would be more straight winners. 50 picks per person is a little to many. I don't see how posting the same numbers for every state is beneficial. When what works for one state might not work for another. I'd like to see more people post their predictions just for a particular state and not every state. When you post for every state then undoubtedly someone's gonna hammer out a straight pick sooner or later. It is kinda difficult to decide which predictors numbers to choose from and with everybody predicting so good it is not cost effective to play everybody's numbers. At least with ten numbers per poster a person could pick and choose from more then one poster to try to get a hit.
