Don't you guys think it's time for you to put aside your personal animosities
and get back to the question at hand?
Personally, I'd appreciate some constructive comments regarding the role of
'substitution' as it applies to lottery strategies.
If the odds of this or that happening for everything is the general rule,
then we should just mail a check to our state lottery and go watch TV.
If, on the other hand, there is good reason to believe that, despite the odds, there are
ways to beat the lottery, then we should pursue them, as best we can.
I've been alive for a long, long time. I'm fully aware that people are always
doing what they believe is in their best self-interest.
Expecting strangers at a lottery forum to come together and do something
constructive for the benefit of all players is probably a big stretch.
However, I could be wrong. Maybe there are a few folks among the +100,000 members
here who would join in and do something that benefits more than themselves.
I've been using 'substitution' to guide my lottery plays for years.
While I've had some some wins, I think my techniques could be improved.
Not seeing the forest because of the trees is a factor in many situations.
Pick 3 is a pari-mutual game.
It sure would be worthwhile if several players would join together and develop
a strategy that can generate more wins than losses.
What do you think??
