Timing Your Bet!



We will be refering to headings in a Calculated Results Chart shown earlier. You can refer to that chart now if you like. Calculated Results Chart You could even print it out for better reference.

Notice the column titled Group Odds. Each group, due to it's size, has different odds of being drawn. Those odds show you, on the average, how often each group should be drawn. Group odds of 1 in 6, for example, tells us that that this group should be drawn an average of once every six drawings. As you can see by looking at the calculated and actual results, they do just that.

Lottery America Calculated Results Tables also have a column titled Overdue. This column keeps you up to date on how much each particular type of number combination is overdue at the present time. That is, since it was last drawn. If a particular group should be drawn once every six drawings and hasn't been drawn in the last 18 drawings, it would be 3 times overdue. As matter of fact, the longer it goes without being drawn, the more overdue it becomes.

To better explain the overdue column, think about a dice cube. Six sides. Six numbers, 1 thru 6. On any given roll of the cube, what are the odds that a 6 will be rolled? 1 in 6. The number six, then, should be rolled an average of once every six rolls of the cube. After 18 rolls of the cube, the six should have been rolled three times (once for every six rolls). Now, assume you were watching as the cube was rolled. You saw the cube rolled six times and a 6 did not show up. It was rolled another six times and again a six did not show up. It was rolled another six times and a 6 still has not shown up. It has now been rolled 18 times and a six did not show up. It's about to be rolled again. What are the odds of a six being rolled on the next roll of the cube? Still one in six! The cube has no memory of what was rolled before! It doesn't need to. But, you do!! If you do not bet on the six to show up on the next roll, you will be betting that the six would not show up in 19 rolls of the cube and the odds would be against you!

If you remember The Law of Large Numbers, you know that over a period of time what actually happens will tend to be what is calculated to happen. Some where along the way, the six will catch up to where it is supposed to be. At times it may even go ahead. Anything could happen, but it is totally unlikely that you could roll a dice cube 19 times without having a six show up. Try it! Knowing that the odds are that a six will be rolled once every six rolls, would you bet money that a six would not show up in 19,20,21,22, etc rolls of the dice cube? The odds would be against you. At this point you are not just betting on the next roll of the dice cube. You are betting that at this particular point in time the cube will not be rolled 24 times without a six showing up. Play the odds!

The comparison of the calculated times drawn and the actual times drawn along with the overdue column give you the unique ability to time your bets by playing those types of combinations which are significantly overdue. The only other way you have to increase your odds of winning is to increase your bets. That costs money! Our purpose is to get you to play smarter.... not harder!!
