Lottery Jackpots - Don’t Bet on Tails #3

Lottery Jackpots

Lottery Number AdvisorIn my last post, Lottery Jackpots - Don’t Bet on Tails #2, I defined what a Balanced Wager was and showed you how the Balanced Wager Distribution graph worked. Now we are ready for the bottom line; How can this graph Improve Your Chances of Winning the Lottery Jackpots? The graph is repeated below.

LONA™ calculates the scores and plots the graph for all 25 million plus possible wagers for a 6/54 game. Every wager is accounted for. The graph clearly shows that the vast majority of wagers fall between scores of 30 to 70. There are fewer and fewer wagers with values less than 30 or greater than 70. We say that the graph tails off to the right and to the left. Also, these are often referred to as the skirts of the graph.

Notice that part of the graph on each side is red. This indicates that I placed restrictions for any wager with a score less than 19 or greater than 81. The effect of doing this is that LONA™ will only generate wagers that fall between scores of 20 and 80. No money will be spent on tails. Perhaps the title of this series of posts is starting to make more sense now. But, If it is still not obvious why I’m doing this, let me explain further.

As it turns out, less than 1% of all possible wagers have scores in the red restricted zone. Therefore, the chances against the winning lottery numbers having a Balanced Wager score in the red zone are 100 to 1. Do you know many people who regularly bet on 100 to 1 shots? Probably not. It’s simply not a smart play.

This simple technique will Improve Your Chances of Winning the Lottery in two ways:

  • 1. You will not be wasting your money on 100 to 1 shots.
  • 2. The money you do spend will be concentrated green zone, where there is a 99% chance of finding the winning lottery numbers.

Let’s see if I can put this in perspective. If a lottery has 2 drawings per week, there will be 104 drawings per year. Therefore, over the next year, applying this Lottery Strategy will work in 103 out of 104 drawings.

Keep in mind, with the right Lottery Software, there are many more techniques just like this to Improve Your Chances of Winning the Lottery Jackpots. We’re just skimming the surface. But, I know that some of you are saying that this is just theoretical, that I’m just playing games with the numbers. You’re wrong. And in the next post, I’ll prove it to you.

Lottery Number AdvisorIn my last post, Lottery Jackpots - Don’t Bet on Tails #1, I introduced the famous Bell Shaped Curve. One such graph from the Lottery Number Advisor called the Balanced Wager Distribution graph and it is shown below. Before showing you how this graph can Improve Your Chances of Winning the Lottery Jackpots, I need to explain what a Balanced Wager is.

Early lottery strategists observed that the average value of winning lottery numbers tended to cluster near the middle. In a 6/54 lottery, the six winning numbers would be spread out over the range of 1 to 54 and their average value would be around 27; right in the middle. For example, if the winning numbers were 3-11-24-31-39-53 the average value would be:

(3+11+24+31+39+53)/6  = 26.83

Instead of averaging, let’s make it simpler and just add them up and call this the Balanced Wager Score.

3+11+24+31+39+53 = 161

Now the lowest possible score would occur if the winning numbers were 1-2-3-4-5-6 or 21. The highest possible score would be 49-50-51-52-53-54 or 309. Therefore, the middle would be around 165. Any wager where the sum of the numbers is in the vicinity of 165 would be considered a Balanced Wager.

In a 6/54 lottery, there are 25,827,165 possible wagers! The graph below shows how the Balance Wager Scores for all of these wagers are distributed from lowest score to the highest. Scores range from 0 to 100. So, a Balanced Wager score of 21 is the same as 0, a score of 309 is the same as 100 and a score of 165 (a Balanced Wager) is 50; right in the middle.

The graph shows that there are nearly 800,000 wagers with scores of 50 (165). In fact, it’s easy to see that most of the wagers fall in the range between 30 and 70.

But, understanding what a Balanced Wager Distribution graph is, and how to use it to Improve Your Chances of Winning the Lottery Jackpots and save you money at the same time, are two different things. In the next post, I’ll begin to show you how it’s done.
