Here are the results of a 100 game test. I tested the entire p-3 matrix and the method seems to hold
up through out. To make the test as simple as possible I used the 10 strings and the asterisk indicates
where a sets digits came out of the string. A dash indicates where it did not. The number value at the
bottom is the number of strings / patterns the user could have used to reduced to 4 numbers.
Example. For the last drawing the player could have selected any one of the 7 strings, wheeled the four
remaining digits and been successful. I must say that I was amazed at the number of draws where only
1 string had all 3 digits. Wheeling 4 digits in pick-3 produces 24 total lines which would include one straight
and several box hits depending on if the set was a double, triple etc... I thought this might help if you
decide to start a topic. Good catch. P.S. wrote the test in a hurry but think the data is correct but not
100% sure.
