Lottery DATA Lab

First, from last week...the RC 5 did NOT have a digit in the 30's, as was written on the 6th, the very next day, the high was 20, so those with low digit wheels should have cashed in.  As of today, 6/12 or 50% of Rolling Cash 5 did not have a single digit in them, CFR predicts this will not continue, but there may be another LOW digit coming soon.

The Pick 4 (OH) was looking for 55xx back on the 6th, along with 66xx. Since then, 5528 on the 7th and 4556 on the 9th. And it said a 6 on the front, with 6437, 6257 and 6419 having been drawn.

I will double down on 66xx this week, with several double doubles, 6677, 6688 6600 on my play slips and several 666x trips too.

Today's mid draw of 929 was #50 on the doubles chart which started on May 23, and was projected to run to Sept.1. The 17 day difference shows that more double digits were drawn more than was expected, with a very hot June and July for those.  The new chart started today is expected to go to Dec. 22, if the trend continues, it could be there by Thanksgiving, so keep an eye on your double digit plays.

The DATA for the double digits goes back almost 4 years, with an average number of draws per double digit at 280, with these three over 300--11x=313; 66x=303; 22x -301. The COLD #s are 44x with all other falling close to the avg of 280.  These have been consistent over the last 4 years, so I will continue to play 11 and 22 a lot of the time. 

For the month,so far, the CFR says HOT before cold.  Let's see how accurate that is starting today. 

In the Pick 3 game we have not had a 4 or 7 in the first slot, no 8 in the second slot, and not 4 in the third slot. 

3 has 4 in first slot (9 and 6 already have 5), and 4 in the third slot and 8 too.  The CFR says I should play 3x4/8 before I play those not hit, with the tripping point exception of the 7 in the first slot, which has not been drawn in 50 draws...so it gets a lot of attention in wheels. 

So to summarize, I'll be playing more balanced wheels in the RC5, with a few without any 30's, and a couple with three single digits, 4,5,8 and 2,4,9 and wheels with all the single digits in them. 

110, 224, 667 are favs for the coming week. Still like 6668, with the double doubles mentioned above. 

Will the CFR be right about the HOT before the COLD (4 drawn before 0 drawn in the month)...we're about to find out. 

.

As the CFR predicted, in OH Rolling Cash 5, we've seen four of the six draws without a single digit in them. I will continue those types of picks while adding NO numbers above 30, in the next 6 days. 

We started strong with the Pick 4 with 3211, and also 4114, also predicted by CFR for 11xx. So good for that. Still looking for 55xx, and also 66xx, with my cards having a few of 666x, like 6668, is one I'll be playing. 

Pick 3 slowed with double digits, as was expected due to so many last month.  But, from today forward, I'll have several double digits in play, 00x looks promising (700), and 55x better hit soon too, might be ready for a trip.  So play on.  From a data perspective 7 in first slot for Pick 3 has crossed the trigger point, so I have many 7xx combos. In the Pick 4 game, data says, Play with a 6 at the start, in fact, 66xx looking good, as you see above I'm in on that.

First, due to my own lack of awareness, I missed my goal of daily posts in July, due to getting a time out and a warning also. In Aug., my goal is a twice a week post goal.  Maybe I can hit that one. 

I am posting DATA from July draws in OH, although the group tracks almost all state lotteries (we don't bother with WY, ND, MT, NM, SD and a couple of others), you can use these OH data points to compare your own state's draws, fair enough? 

In July, OH Pick 3 had a WHOPPING 38% of DOUBLE DIGITS far above the national avg. of 27%, and way beyond my 20%.  The CFR (COMBINATORIAL FREQUENCY REDUCTION) did predict July would exceed the norms. So congrats if you played those in wheels.  I, personally, lost in July, the group did better, around break even...but as a reminder, I am Kenny Rogers sitting at the table, and don't count my money until the dealing is done.

Which means we reconcile our books in JAN. after a year of betting and so far have a decade long streak of being in the black. My hope is, in testing the CFR, I  don't end that streak, YIKES. So, in Aug. I will cut back to the 20%, one in five, of double digits in the pick 3 OH game.

There were 4 SEQUENCES; 897, 576, 534, 435.  And seven ADDS: 963, 426, 523, 761, 437, 448, 178.  This was almost twice the monthly avg. for the last year. The most drawn was 12 in first digit slot, the least was 5 in third slot with only 3 draws. 

Rolling Cash 5 had 16% (below avg.) of draws with NO SINGLE DIGITS, so in Aug. I will have more wheels without a single digit (1-9) in them.  It had 4 with 3 single digits, 2 with three teens, one with three 20's, 4 with 3 30's and most would play COLD or three 20's, but CFR says play the ones with four, time will tell. 

In the Pick 4 game, three with trips; 2666, 3383, 0555 and three with pairs; 5775, 3443, 8338.  Most hit was 0 in the fourth slot with 14, least hit was 6 in first slot with just ONE. Double digits with four, 55xx, and 11xx had ZERO in July, so in Aug, I'll be hitting the 11 and 55 heavy to start. There was one sequence; 1290.  37 of 62 had doubles in the picks. 

So that is the summary for JULY, for OH, you can compare those tracking ideas with your own state. See you in Aug. OH, wait, see you later in the week.
