I've won money on my computer with my lottery picks mainly because I could play an unlimited amount of combinations, but I can't afford the same amount of risk in the real world. I've never run any tests to see if I played with the same amount of risk in the real world if I would come out ahead.RJOh

WHY cant i winReply
RJOH, you're right !!! Something smells bad on that pool. 900 chances and only matched a 2 plus 1 ? Odds are there should have been at least 10 to 15 powerball matches.Unseen, your girlfriend have a copy of all the numbers to the group ?

I need to fix bad luck or bad KarmaReply

You're not the only person losing money playing the lotteries. Losing is a big part of the game.RJOh

RJOH:Key phrase: trouble with writing things down as they happen .Seems to me that's the advantage. But I'm naturally a sort of pollyanna when it comes to recognizing sarcasm.Why bother coming on a thread, amigo, to suggest this person (or anyone else) is lying or mis-remembering events they relate here? Everyone's aware such things as flawed memory happen, but you're no better qualified to judge which is which than any other poster. If this guy's not remembering what goes on in his own life

Glitch in the Lottery?Reply
Quote: Originally posted by RJOh on October 25, 2004There is a similar glitch when players look at pass hits and say certain numbers or combinations are overdue. They assume there is some rule that all the numbers and small groups of numbers in a lottery must appear an equally amount of times in a short period of time even if history tell them better.RJOhThat's basically the misapplication of the law of large numbers to small numbers. As I said, that sort of thing is merely our own failure to

I bought 100 tickets and got two 0+1 and one 3+0 for $13 and I consider that bad. The overall odds of winning something with the PowerBall game
