Bizarrely, this information is less detailed and a step backwards from a
previous article, also quoting Dr Simon Cox, from 1998.

The Lotto Numbers to Avoid
..........................................................................
In my opinion. the lotto numbers to avoid depends on the draw, for example
(and bizarrely in a Lottery Newsgroup)..
In the UK main draw, best to avoid numbers 01-49 inclusive.
In the UK Thunderball draw, best to avoid numbers 01-39 inclusive.
In the rip-off �2 a ticket EuroM draw, best to avoid numbers 01-50
inclusive.
In other words, avoid the lottery: it is a complete WOFT (Waste Of
Fkn Time) a waste of money and without doubt, the worst bet on the Planet!
if you must have a bet, back a horse or a dog, you'll have a far better
chance of getting some returns.
If by any chance the aforementioned Dr Simon Cox can be contacted, then
perhaps someone could advise him of those facts.

I guess you haven't had too many wins this year, then?

Apart from three 'match 4' wins (74 UK pounds each win) and three 'match 3'
wins (10 UK pounds each win) on 16th March, you guess correctly Niggle. I
played the 'Lottery Director' 'key 2' or 'banker 2' which is a pick-22
numbers (from 49) 15 combinations wheel. Banker nos were 06 and 23.
Prior to that win, I played the same 15 lines in the UK 6/49 draw and went
28 draws (yes *28* draws) without a win of any kind!

Downloaded Thunderbird ok Rich but no matter what I do to try and configure
it to the AOIE server, it will not send reply messages to RGL unless I
create a new account (and they want money to open a new account). It
downloads RGL messages ok, but that's it, I'm unable to send reply messages.
I can send this post to RGL via AIOE alright and I can download all RGL
messages. What AIOE won't do is download my reply messages to RGL. A

Thanks anyway.

Windows Live Mail 15.4.3555.308" . If you were using Thunderbird, I
think it would say "Thunderbird" somewhere in your message header.
If you are using a recent version of Thunderbird, using the REPLY-button
to respond to a post sends the message to the poster's email address,
not RGL. To send the reply to RGL, you have to use the FOLLOWUP-button.
This is different from the way they used to do it, doesn't make sense to me.

I don't need to know how to avoid sharing a lottery jackpot.
If I would have the jackpot numbers right, I would be happy,
even if I had to share the price with others and would get "only"
£120,000.
It would be better to know how to boost the chances of
any price with statistical methods.

I think so too.
But certainly there are statistical methods to predict a group
of numbers with 3 to 6 of the winning numbers, with which
the chances are better than the theoretical chances.
E.g. if we omit only the last 6 drawn numbers, we have then a
game 6 out of 43 instead of 6 out of 49 with very often all
6 right numbers within the 43 numbers. And in all this cases
the chance for the jackpot is higher than in the 6 out of 49
lottery with all 49 numbers.
But this seems to be too complicated for the scientists.

What a nonsense from "scientists" !
If we count how many possibilities of drawings are available
which starts with the number 31 and higher we get:
line No. 13 956 684: 30-45-46-47-48-49
line No. 13 965 252: 31-45-46-47-48-49

line No. 13 983 816: 44-45-46-47-48-49
13 983 816 - 13 956 684 = 27 132
How big is the chance to win if we select only 19 numbers
(31 to 49) and only 27132 combinations out of 13983816
combinations?
And the lower wins ("...any win...") have nothing to do with
the lowest number.
What type of scientists do you have at the Southampton
University? How are they related with the lottery company?
Is the University getting donations from the lottery company?

Yet a previous number occurs 70% of the time. So only 30% of the time it
would seem to choose 49-6 = 43.

MJ,
that means that if we omit the last 6 drawn numbers, we have
already with a simple statistical method for 30% of the drawings
improved the winning chance for a jackpot win in comparison
to the standard game.
It is only a simple example that it is in principle possible to
improve
the winning chance.
E.g. not exactly the last 6 drawn numbers have to be omitted
but any other 6 (or 10 or more ?) numbers which have to
be selected by a statistical method.
Perhaps you have an idea which type of numbers occur less
than 70% of the time at the next drawing? Cold, warm, hot
numbers? Normally, drawn numbers are a mix of cold, warm and
hot numbers.

last digit is present for one or more numbers drawn like 11 or 21 or 14 and
34). because I can see there were 67 consecutive weeks where a family group
number was present in the numbers drawn. Overall 92% of the time.
It just so happened that 11, 21 and 41 were present this week. 2 pairs -
21/22 and 47/48 and two previous (unusual) 21 and 48. I'm not giving any
credence to warm, cold and hot.
But the family group idea is in my head.

Mail article was based on the 1998 information, and agreeing that some
points I made about the information being dated were valid.
He also named the Swiss lottery as being one where full disclosure is
made of the combinations which people buy. I must check up on that, I
didn't know the Swiss had a lottery and it doesn't feature on most of
the 'lottery results' websites.

But my poor old brain can't get round this. And after thinking about it, it
just looks like there's a system but it only works with hindsight ;-)
