Observation of interest.... By playing series:012,123,234,345,456,567,678,789,890,901 and doubles: 001,110,009,909,112,221,332,223,334,443,554,445,556,665,776,667,778,887,998,889.......you will average 10 hits a month....50 cent any each draw would be $15 .....as of today this year you would have spent $135---winnings of $200...keeps you in the game but stagnant! Parlay...what are your thoughts? Any way to cross reference with other prediction sources to reduce those thirty to increase profit...everyone feel free to answer!
I'm happy to check that for you, but I'm afraid you won't be thrilled with the results. I didn't know exactly how you meant to play each number, STRAIGHT or ANY. I ruled out 50/50 because you are using fifty-cent bets and there is no fifty-cent 50/50 bet. In the interest of fairness, I analyzed both Straight and Any. I ran the analysis for last year, 2018. That's two workups - Straight for one year and Any for one year. The results are below. The supporting charts are in their own thread here.
RESULTS for 2018
Straight
Cost - $10,950
Winnings - $6,500
Total Losses - $4,450

Any
Cost - $10,950
Winnings - $4160 (3-Way) + $1960 (6-Way) = $6120
Total Losses - $4830

Rats! I'm very sorry to disappoint. I was really hoping you had cracked the code. That's why I did the analysis. I think you underestimated the total costs of playing those numbers and overestimated the winnings based on an average number of 10 wins per month (the actual number is 8.5) and I'm guessing that you assumed each win would be a 3-Way (paying $80 for a fifty-cent bet), when the actual result is a mix of 3-Way and 6-Way (which pay $40 for a fifty-cent bet).
P.S. I'm always very happy to check these strategies for folks if anybody else has one they want me to check.
