I have the spreadsheets, but do my final breakdown of the powerball on paper, assisted by my spreadsheet data. This picture shows what the numbers look like after 13 draws. That's after 65 numbers have been drawn. There's 23/0's...32/1's...10/2's...3/3's and 1/4...The X'ed out numbers in the 0 to 1 row are the numbers that are still zeros after 28+ drawings..11-13-22-38 and 58...I decided those won't come in for certain reasons. One did come in last Wed.May 22nd (57). What I've done differently is I look at what will this 13th round draw look like after the next drawing. To get that picture, a drawing will drop off. The numbers that will drop off are 12-21-39-67 and 23...I've put squares around them and listed what they will be if not hit. So technically the 12-21 and 39 will remain 1's if hit or drop to zeros. So that means the 23/0's will go up to 26 just from those 3 numbers not hitting..But then you have to subtract from the 0 to 1 row if any numbers hit. Do you get it..The rest of the 1's to 2's list will remain 1's if not hit or if hit move to 2's..So my goal is to go over all the drawings that have a 23-32-10-3-1 or close to it pattern and see what they look like after the drawing. This is a little different then what it says in the book. It states I should look at the 13th drawing and predict what the 14th drawing will look like. I might end up doing that. But I have the patterns(Ex:11223, 11222..etc) and number read out (Ex: 23/0's..32/1's...10/2's etc) of all drawing rounds 1 thru 28 numbers back. 1 drawing obviously being all 1's.
Now let's look where I made a huge mistake. Finding and playing pairs is crucial in ticket structure in my opinion. I leaned toward a 1-1-2-3-3 pattern. Look at the 2s to 3's row..The only pair in that row is 1-2..and I didn't play it together. I played 1 and 2, but separately. What the hell was I thinking. And look at the drop off numbers..12-21-39-67 and 23..One of those hit...39..If I wheeled the 1/2 pair with the 3 drop off numbers...12-21 and 39..which will remain 1's because they hit 13 draws back..the 67 would of remained a 2...so a possible play...23 would of been another 3 pattern..I wasn't playing three 3's in the pattern. So 23 could be excluded at least..So the pair 1-2 with all four drop off numbers..that's a 3 match in only 4tickets..And there's 66 all by itself in the 4's to 5's row..In the book anything over 3's are considered 3's, so don't get confused..LOL!! Now 66 has hit 5x in 13 drawings..unbelievable..
I ended up hitting 2 of 5 numbers with the powerball number 2. Played 2-4-6-8 in the powerball. Played ten tickets with the powerplay..Powerball number bailed me out. Had the 2 three times..Powerplay was 3x..Spent 30 got back 45..
Still a lot to figure out. By the way ..Pattern was 1-1-3-3-3..this is for 13 drawings..Not 14..
