Do Not Use The Following Pattern Selection Number Combinations

1. Do Not Choose the Extreme Combinations

We analyzed the over 100 Pick 3 lotteries, with tens of thousands of drawings results, like 0 1 2, and 7 8 9, combinations like this rarely occur.

2. Do Not Choose Regular Combinations

Don’t use regular combinations, For example, 0 2 4, 3 6 9, 9 7 5, 6 4 2.

3. Do Not Choose the Combinations Have Been Drawn Before

Pick 3 has only 1,000 different number combinations of results and hundreds of draws per year, so it’s easy to see how the results will be repeated often. We analyzed over 100 Pick 3 lotteries. The odds of a combination that has been drawn in the previous 50 draws being repeated are very low. So the combination of the previous 50 draws can be excluded.

4. Do Not Choose All Numbers From One Group

Split the numbers into 3 groups, 0-2, 3-5, and 6-9. We analyzed hundreds of Pick 3 lotteries draws, the odds of all 3 numbers coming from one group are only about 5%. Avoid selecting all the numbers from one group.

Use The Following Pattern Selection Number Combinations

1. Choose Low Number and High Number Ratio

We split the numbers 0-9 into low and high numbers, with 0-4 being the low numbers and 5-9 being the high numbers. Analyzed many Pick 3 lottery draw results, most winning numbers are made up of low field and high field. In rare cases, the winning numbers are all low field numbers or all high field numbers. The odds of all the numbers in the group being low or high is about 15%. The winning numbers most occurrence ratio of low to high are 1:2, 2:1.

2. Use Even-Odd and Low-High Pattern

In a combination, we use the upper case E for even number, use the upper case O for odd number, Pick 3 There are 8 Even-Odd patterns: EEE EEO EOE EOO OEE OEO OOE OOO; Using the same method all Low-High Patterns: LLL LLH LHL LHH HLL HLH HHL HHH. After our statistics and analysis, there are patterns that have a very low probability of occurring over a specific of time, so that we can filter out these patterns.

3. Choose Odd Number and Even Number Ratio

We have analyzed many lottery draw results, most winning numbers are made up of odd numbers and even numbers. In rare cases, the winning numbers are all odd numbers or all even numbers. The winning numbers most occurrence ratio of odd to even are 1:2, 2:1.

4. Choose Numbers From Different Groups

Split the numbers into 3 groups, 0-2, 3-5, and 6-9. We have analyzed many lottery draw results, most of them spread across different groups. However, sometimes, one of the number groups is missing. The more groups that are split, the more groups that are missed.

5. Choose Adjacent Numbers of Previous Winning Numbers

What is the adjacent number? If number 5 has been hit in the last drawn, its adjacent numbers(3, 4, 6, 7) are likely to be drawn.

We found a pattern by looking at the drawings trend chart, a number that appeared in the previous drawn has a high probability of appearing in its adjacent numbers.

6. Use AC Value to Exclude Some Combinations

According to our statistics, in the Pick 3 games, such as Arizona Pick 3, Arkansas Cash 3, California Daily 3, Connecticut Play 3, Florida Pick 3, Indiana DAILY 3…, 95% of winning numbers are between AC value from 2 to 3.

Please see the chart below, we counted the 20 drawings winning numbers of California Daily 3 Midday from 8/25/2020 to 12/2/2020, the AC value of 1 occurred only once, 4%, AC value of 2 occurred 37 times, 37%. AC value of 3 occurred 59 times, 59%. So before betting on numbers, calculate the AC value of all combinations and filter out those with AC is 1.

7. Use Numbers Average Value to Exclude Some Combinations

We analyzed several Pick 3 lotteries and came to the conclusion that the average value of the winning numbers is basically in a range. For example, we analyzed Arizona Pick 3, Arkansas Cash 3, California Daily 3, Connecticut Play 3, Florida Pick 3, Indiana DAILY 3, and New York NUMBERS previous 100 drawings, and the average value range was basically 2-6. So before betting on numbers, exclude combinations where the average is too low or too high.

8. Use Numbers Sum Value to Exclude Some Combinations

We analyzed several Pick 3 lotteries and came to the conclusion that the sums of the winning numbers are basically in a range. For example, we analyzed Powerball and Mega Millions previous 100 drawings, and the sum range was basically 6-21. So before betting on numbers, exclude combinations where the sum is too low or too high.

9. Use Hot and Cold Numbers

Hot and cold numbers represent the most common (hot) and less common (cold) numbers in the past draws. Through analysis, we do not recommend choosing all popular numbers or all cold numbers.

10. Use Mirror Numbers

The mirror number of another number is the result of adding “5” to it (If the sum of the numbers is greater than or equal to 10, pick the second number). Thus, whenever this term is used in a Pick 3 strategy, it refers to a given number plus 5. We can use the mirror of the previous lottery numbers as our next betting numbers.

As an example. We want to buy 5 pick 3 combinations and the lottery numbers for the previous 5 drawings are:

4 0 7
2 3 9
3 0 1
6 8 2
1 5 0

Mirror number:

4 0 7 = 4+5 0+5 7+5 = 9 5 2 (“12” = “2”) = 9 5 2
2 3 9 = 2+5 3+5 9+5 = 7 8 4(“14” = “4”) = 7 8 4
3 0 1 = 3+5 0+5 1+5 = 8 5 6
6 8 2 = 6+5 8+5 2+5 = 1(“11” = “1”) 3(“13” = “3”) 7 = 1 3 7
1 5 0= 1+5 5+5 0+5 = 6 0(“10” = “0”) 5 = 6 0 5

11. Use Rundown

Search for the last winning numbers in your game state and write them down. Add each of the three numbers together as “1”. For example, “6 1 3” becomes “7 2 4”.
Do it again and keep repeating it, remembering how the science of lotteries works. Stop only when you reach the original lottery number.

For example, winning numbers from the previous draw: 613.
6 1 3
7 2 4
8 3 5
9 4 6
0 5 7
1 6 8
2 7 9
3 8 0
4 9 1
5 0 2

The above demonstration is Rundown 111, we can also use Rundown 123, Rundown 317, etc., the calculation method is similar to Rundown 111. Before using it, we can verify the effect of different Rundown formulas and choose the one that works best in the current lottery to use.

12. You Should Attention to the Combinations That Have Not Been Drawn So Far

We know that a Pick 3 lottery has 1,000 combinations and the probability of winning the jackpot is 1 in 1,000. Each combination is drawn on average once in a thousand times. But is this actually the case? We analyzed and counted the data of all Pick 3 lotteries in the United States since 2002. Some lotteries have been drawn more than 5,000 times, but some combinations have not been drawn so far, or have been drawn only once. According to the probability, these combinations will be opened sooner or later, so we should pay attention to them. For more information, please visit here.
