How I pick my 6/49 lottery numbers
Posted by baadster on December 2, 2007
There are many methods to pick your lottery numbers.
When you understand that each draw has no relationship with previous draws and when you understand that just because a number has not been drawn for awhile does not mean that it will suddenly show up and when you understand that hot numbers are just coincidence then you may be ready to pick your lottery numbers without any false logic or false plans.
My plan is to choose six numbers – each with a premise that is completely unsupported by any science.
Number 1 is a repeat from the previous weeks drawn number
in this case one from Nov 28: 7, 13, 27, 37, 40, 46, Bonus 11
Number 2 is a repeat from the previous two weeks drawn number
in this case one from Nov 24: 1, 10, 25, 27, 30, 36, Bonus 41
Number 3 is a repeat from the previous three weeks drawn number
in this case one from Nov 21: 2, 10, 13, 15, 28, 41, Bonus 38
Number 4 is a number that has not shown up for 8 draws
Number 5 is a number that has not shown up for 18 draws
Number 6 is a number that has not shown up for 25 draws

I will invest in a ticket. Yes this is for fun. I will be paying tax. I will have only one chance in 10 billion of having the right combination. so I go into this gambling situation with my eyes open and with a complete understanding that my picking methods cannot be supported by any science whatsoever.
Wish me luck !!

An interesting method to pick your numbers ! It´s a fact that there is no mathematical formula or whatsoever to guarantee you a big lottery win. But there is one rule : to win, you got to play. If you don´t play, you can never win. And if you play, it´s always better to have some kind of a system or strategy. So I wish you good luck, and I hope that you keep us informed.

You’ve got a 1 in 57 chance of matching 3 numbers and 1 in 13,983,816 of matching 6 and getting the jackpot. That, and full randomness is the same. Wanna play? fair enough, but missing a week or using different numbers won’t make statistically any difference.
Look through the window, it is sunny and the birds are singing. Use your time more efficiently (specially if you are playing for the money, not the joy).

Okay, randomness for the lottery is superficial. The machines that generate random numbers do not generate random numbers on cards that play more than 3 lines in quick pick.
The machines used to create the balls and the machines that catch the balls have inperfections in them.
If the balls are destroyed after each draw and new ones are used from at least three different suppliers, then this would be truly random.
If the balls are not destroyed after each use and the same balls stay in use for years, then after 15000 draws, you will see a pattern that is not random.
The same principles used to measure a roulette wheel can be applied here.
Natural imperfections will occur inside the plastic of the balls and change with humidity and with wear and tear.
The machines may get banged up while in storage which could also offer further error to measurement.
In the end, you could potentially calculate the numbers if you knew the balls make up, time until disposal, length of time for use, and so forth.
This is all hypothetical but the odds of 6 numbers being drawn 3 times each within 10 draws is astronomical. Yet this occurred.
Curious.
