Default Giving another thought to LOTTERY MONEYBALL$

First: I think social media more or less proves ONE degree of separation from "LUCY", the so-called first hominin. Daily Social Media posters are much closer to her than to Kevin Bacon...

Anyhow...

Just thinking aloud here. I may test a different route. I'm thinking of funding other state lottery players and sharing the wins, minus expenses.

The more I work on my website for LOTTERY MONEBALL$ while using the BELL CURVE-FLAT LINE method...the more I'm leaning toward ...

JUST playing but expanding out of Ohio. Just play and win, let the singles accumulate and remain happy...without ANY slop and mess.

OR, just increase my play here and fade into oblivion.

That sounds better and better as I continue to work (why??) on this project.

Anywhoo...my thought for the day.

Gordon

Default Continue To Play

Gordon,

Thanks for keeping us up on what is happening with your Lottery ventures.

Keeping the playing and pocketing your winnings seems like the simple way of doing things. It certainly beats figuring all the bets for other states.

I know there are gobs and gobs of people playing daily games. This pool of players might be big enough to keep going though. This playing group could be big enough to AT LEAST test what you are doing anyway.

Thanks Millard, I find it is more about people, or rather, my lack of interest in working with them. The website is ready, bought and paid for, so makes sense to continue to test it.

As for the other states, once the spreadsheet is set up, I don't do much. I'm just thinking of only digital and no interaction...all a part of this testing phase, which runs through the summer. So, no hurry, I don't have to make decisions on anything...just trying to figure out how to have the least amount of human contact that is possible.

And maybe, just sell the things as an AUTOMATIC PRODUCT VENDING site, may solve that. So maybe a bit of my own medicine?? Set it and almost forget it, til the first of the month rolls around.

On a side note, it is ridiculous how much lottery "product" is out there, carving a small niche won't be hard. And so far, I haven't found anyone who can beat the Bell Curve-Flat Line with their methods, which I find to be pretty silly...take this, add this, subtract that and multiply by X = nonsense. Very little rhyme or reason to it all. But then again, the target niche aren't MENSA* members either, which is why I don't want to interact with them.

Gordon

PS. Had a dream about an address, now I don't normally play dream numbers, this one is 888, which was drawn June 17 midday in Ohio...so very unlikely it means much, although I did throw 50 cents on it.

*And neither am I.

Default Re: It is this kind of B.S. I can't stand...

This might work for the lottery...

A few UK horse racing tipsters are offering a service where they send you the bet and - if it wins - you pay them a certain agreed amount (have seen emails for a fixed £ amount and also for the winnings amount for a certain stake)

If it loses, you don't send them anything obviously.

Different from the usual tipster service where you pay regardless of whether the horse wins or loses.

Old deal; start with a large pool, offer tips, for games. Say team a wins, and team b wins, send to half of group. Next tip, do again, next tip and then when you have a few wins offer a lock, for money...and disappear into the mist.

I can see how this might work with lottery, although, it sounds like slop and mess to me at this point, might just grab a few hobarts, and be happy with those as my "members"...

Thanks for the idea. Gordon
