Have you ever played Lotto? It's too easy to dream of hitting the jackpot and so chances are you have. You know exactly how you came up with your personal set of lucky numbers. I know I've used all things from old license plate numbers to combinations of house birth dates, old phone numbers and so on. But I curiously wondered, what the most ordinarily played numbers were.
So I set out to find some answers on the world wide web. It turns out there are no straight answers as to which are the most often played numbers in Lotteries. However, I did find that most habitancy play their own combinations of birth dates, old phone numbers and other lucky numbers that have personal importance to them. Sound familiar?
Interestingly enough, what I did find, were records of actual numbers that were drawn most frequently in Lotteries around the world. This was very provocative because, it tells me that for anyone reason, there maybe a pattern here. Patterns, if studied (correctly) could lead to a law of predicting the same or similar patterns over and over again.
Of procedure I'm no specialist in in statistics and I don't know exactly what it is that makes for these patterns to occur (if they even do). However, If I was to make an educated guess, I would guess that it could possibly be as simple as the weight of the paint/ink on each ball that makes them fall a unavoidable way to the lowest of the holder it's drawn from. And since each amount requires a varying amount of paint/ink to narrate that number, it makes good sense, and it's not a bad guess in my opinion.
But I'm sure that there is more to it than just that. possibly along with the weight of the paint/ink on each ball, it's also how each of the lottery machines work. I've only seen a handful of them in action, but I've seem some that uses an arm, some with suction, some with blowers to draw the numbered balls out.
The more I thought about it, the more the paint/ink law made sense to me. After all if some of the balls were even slightly heavier, they would absolutely fall faster to the bottom, and they would roll to the front quicker than the other balls would (since the balls are constantly rolling as drawing takes place).
As I did some more finding around the web, I found many "formulas" and "systems" that reflect similar ideas and theories which narrate a more systematic arrival to the whole "randomness" and "blind luck" arrival we all regularly think of when it comes to playing the lottery. Some of them where a puny more outrageous than others but I now I am more inclined to think that possibly there could be a law out there which truly can raise your chances by picking the real lucky numbers which will ultimately hit that jackpot.
