  I will start to post numbers for some of the lottery games.

  But I will not buy those numbers untill they start to come out if they ever do.

  I am not made out of money, I will not spend money on loosing picks and neither should You.

  Play no more than two to four numbers per drawing.  Start out with 50 cent bets and work your way up.  Usually when I am wrong, I am way off the mark.  No use wasting that much money . . .

  The behavior seeking money from lottery is wrong itself.But the process learning more about lottery stuff is good.I have won second prizes for 7 times here in China and made great progress on my lottery system,yet I darnt say I can win everytime now.So Just keep calm and just consider lottery is a game for us to play.We dont decide when the luck comes and when its gone.

  yes it can get depressing. i had a 4 year loosing streak with the daily game before i finally quit. that was after hitting straights three times in three months. (3k, 6k and finally 10k). sadly 2 months after bleeding money the number i had played came up but o well. its best to play once a week or however much you can afford to loose - thats why i only play large jackpot games now - i want to win enough to never have to work again and enjoy the rest of my life

  me too but my goal is a bit different from yours.

  I want to make others winners,second prizes winners and jackpot winners,and let them send me little money.I can never win that much money myself cos that much money will always make me feel guilty and unhappy

  Joy2  Since Ohio has 2 cash 3 drawings you may want to write the Ohio Lottery a letter and ask whether the ballsets used for Cash 3 draws are from the same group, or whether they are from 2 separate groups.  If they are from one group the treat your cash 3 selections as if you are dealing with one game.  The Ohio Lottery should furnish you a reply as part of public disclosure. 
  

   

  
  

  GA has one pool of balls from which they select both Mid and Eve Cash 3 draws, so when evaluating probabilities I consider all Cash 3 numbers drawn as if both draws are one.

  
  

  Same with GA Cash 4 coming from a single group for both draws.

  
  

   

  
  

  My latest question to the GA lottery which has not yet been answered is whether Cash 3 and Cash 4 draws come from a single group of ballsets.  If so that could be the factor in blowing some of our calculations out the window.   

  
  

   

  
  

  All the above advice from other posters is sage.  See how you're doing on paper, especially with timing (my personal nemisis) then go for one or two $.50 box plays when something looks good in hopes of building up some playing capital.  Most of all have fun with what you're doing, and good luck! 

  Have fun and the best of luck to everyone!
