didn't give you the actual winning numbers (pick4) and claims they win straight but won't give you the numbers. This person also claimed that this girl plays pick 4 and bets high and wins. But he wouldn't tell me what the numbers were.

Well someone came up to me while I was servicing one of my candy machines at this bar. In Philly there was this dude that was tattooed and claiming he would win a certain amt by playing $5- $10 straight here and there.

So I showed him this website of course and he said he goes directly to the PA lottery site and looks. So I asked him "What is going to come out since you win so much?" The kicker here is he sounded stupid because of taxes. I told him it's at least $601 that the govt takes depending on the wins.

So I guess that was a waste of time.

Did he have a stack of playslips in his hand?

Hey wander, I thought this dude in my store was the King of Pick 4 until I found out his strategy whatever he wins he invests rights back into the game there is no profit. I thought he had a solid system all he does is play by instinct there are good days and bad days and he has his own made up list that he follows. Does it work Yes, does it work everyday NO, you need a big bankroll to cover all his numbers and run a chance of not winning at all, when he wins he wins big because he plays straight, 50/50, combo, BOX so he covers the number pretty well and he don't play a dollar he plays $5 or more on the ticket and he plays several tickets there are days he plays up to $500 dollars and when he is there it's a long wait to buy my tickets. All I am trying to say is that sometimes the clerks are impressed when a certain player has a system but in actuality they don't. By the way that player I thought was the King is now my friend and we always talk about Numbers once he shared his system I was like not interested Yes he wins but like I mentioned before is all luck and intuition on his part. I can't take $500 and spend it one draw the suspense will kill me. Although he can and if he loses he don't care he gets ready for the next draw that's one serious gambler and I respect him for that. Sometimes is all talk and not the real thing.

The only reason he won't show you the numbers is because then, it would start a conversation in which you call him a liar, and obviously he doesn't want that. It's that simple.

Reminds me of a couple LP members that brag about their systems, but have no prediction statistics and say it's up the the reader to find winning pick-3 numbers somewhere in their 1000 predictions.

Why would any reasonable player call another player who actually predicted the winning combination before it was drawn a liar?
