I am new here to LP, yet over the years have played around with different techniques to decipher a group of numbers to play. I have hashed out Pick 3, Pick 5's, and powerball. I am joined LP to seek out diffeenpoints of views and techniques that are being used.
I really liked TNT's way of grouping the Tennessee Pick into 3 groups. I did the same for Iowa's Cash Game which is a Pick t from 35 instead of 39. So since Iowa had only 35 I set-up 5 groups of 7 in the same fashion to keep my groups equal. I then set-up a MySQL on my server and uploaded all of the draws since 1992 and then wrote a script to output the draws into these 5 groups.
From these results I picked 10 numbers for todays draw.I then wheeled these 20 numbers and out of those results I picked 5 lines to play. The results were not ticker-tape parade material, but I did score 3 free plays out of my 5 plays.
Now I am thinking that maybe there could be more that could be added and or filters created to narrow down the process.
I am very fluent in MySQL and Excel and will be happy to put test and try out formula's and provide results. Just looking to put theories to the test.
If anybody is interested in working on some theories let me know.
