Lottery Strategies - Come Over from the Dark Side
In the last post, Winning Lotto Strategies - Taking Out the Trash, we were able to raise our Lottery Footprint (LFP) to 8.19. Today, I promised to improve the LFP even further. But, that was before I received an email that challenged the validity of removing the low and high number combinations. Some people just don’t like to take out the trash.
This question falls under the category of Balanced Wager Analysis and it’s a logical and valid question to the skeptic unfamiliar with that topic. So, in order to provide aid and comfort to those unfamiliar with the concept of a Balanced Game, I’ve decided to introduce a soliloquy (Great word, heh!) into this dialog and forego improving the LFP for awhile. Don’t worry, this side trip will be more than worth it.
Balance Wager Primer: The Balanced Wager owes it name to the ever popular playground attraction; the teeter-totter. Ahhhhh, that brings back fond memories. Except when your best friend jumped off and your bottom was sore for a week. OUCH! Your friend apparently forgot that the key to successful teeter-tottering is to maintain balance.
That same lesson applies to the lottery. Too many low numbers in the wager and it tilts to one side. Too many high numbers in the wager and it tilts to the other side. Developing an understanding of such Lottery Number Patterns is crucially important to the Serious Lottery Player.
There is a way to quantify this observation. Simply add up the numbers in the wager. For the wager 1-2-3-4-5-6 the sum is 21. This is the minimum. For the wager 49-50-51-52-53-54 the sum is 309. This is the maximum. And guess what? The vast majority of lottery drawings are Balanced Wagers; neither tilting to far to one side or the other. So, spending your money on a wager near the minimum or maximum is probably not a very effective use of your lottery budget.
Still not convinced? Still don’t believe me? That’s OK. I’ll let the Lotto Texas 6/54 lottery speak for itself. In the next post, I’ll show you a Lottery Number Advisor graph, that very effectively, quiets even the most vehement skeptic.
I love skeptics. They’ve provided me with endless hours of satisfaction as, one by one, they come over from the dark side and make my day.
