    Let's Win the Lottery

    I am fully aware that this will sound like absolute bat shit crazy talk, so I figured GFY is the best place to ask it.

    I've been developing an app that analyzes millions of lottery data points and has gotten very close to detecting patterns in my lottery drawings. The problem is I don't have nearly enough computing power to analyze the billions of data points needed to make feasibly accurate predictions. I only have 12 computers used to process right now. That is not nearly enough to perform the billions of calculations needed.

    Cash is the only issue. I don't have thousands to spend on Google or Amazon compute services. I've already tried a Threadripper 96 thread from MojoHost but I need many more computers than that.

    If anyone knows someone with a lot of servers available who may consider partnering with me to run my program on sufficient computing hardware, please ask them to mail me at [email protected] and I will show them how it works and discuss working together.

    May I ask what sort of 'data points' there are besides the numbers that are drawn? The number of winners, the number of tickets sold, etc cannot possibly have an impact on the drawn numbers so what are you using since analizing the frequency of the drawn numbers would be an operation that takes a few seconds on a 386? Humidity in the room where the numbers are drawn? Wear on the balls?

        It could actually affect it - if one ball is made of slightly more pourous material, it could potentially absord slightly more water thus making it slightly heavier and by extention affecting it's bounciness and thus making it more (or less) likely to be selected. However you don't know the temperature or humidity in the room where the drawing happens - only the outside conditions in the city it's in.

        However - even with that said, we still come back to the main data point - the frequency with which specific numbers drop, and this data is freely available https://www.usamega.com/powerball/statistics

        Data across various lotteries would be useless because the balls would be different. There's no correllation in the results between two different machines running two different sets of balls in two different places. If I were to put 69 numbered balls into a bag in front of me right now, it would have no impact or correlation with what numbers are drawn in powerball.

          Oh I agree, the variables far outweigh the constants, air temps, machine temps, ball weights, dimensions, time between selections, etc…

            Given that very few lottery games use actual physical balls anymore these days, no physical characteristics are considered. No hocus pocus nonsense like astrology is used either. In the beginning I used to analyze the number frequencies but this did not yield good results given how random the drawings are. I've developed a way of comparing one drawing to another that has shown to yield the best results of the 30 or so methods I've tried.

            The fact that nobody I shared this with can really seem to understand how I did it tells me that I've developed something unique that is far from of the usual methods passed around on the Internet.

                  Thank you. I was waiting for that exact quote from someone.

                  "I tried it already and it didn't work for me, therefore if I can't figure it out, nobody can."

                  If I tried this method 20 years ago when lottery odds were much better, this definitely would have worked.

                    Yup, you know what also didn't make sense? Constructing a 600LB vehicle made of metal and wood that defied all known laws of physics and magically flies through the air. Well now here we are.

                      How have lottery odds changed? The number range has not changed so the odds have not changed. The number of people has increased so presumably more lottery tickets sold and with that higher jackpots - but the actual odds to land the 6 numbers have not changed.

                        Oh, the odds have absolutely 100% changed in most lotteries. They change on average around every 6-10 years according to my analytics. For example in 2015, Powerball increased the pool of white balls and decreased the number of red balls pulled during a drawing. The chances of winning the jackpot shrunk from 1-in-175-million to 1-in-292-million.

                        The Mega Millions last changed their odds in October 2017 from 1-in-258-million to 1-in-302-million.

                        Most lotteries change their odds as more people play to control the frequency at which people win.

                              This kind of shit only really works on a pick-4 type of game where the odds are like 10,000:1. I used to do it in New York in the early 90’s but only broke even at best. I wrote the software on an old Apple 2 computer.

                              Good luck trying to win when the odds are 35 million to one or even worse in a powerball game.

                                  It's true that it's less accurate with lower odds games like Powerball and Mega Million. I've been using 1-in-7.5-million games and 1-in-21-million games as a litmus test with better than average results. But even with the 99.9% accuracy I've had in some draws still requires that I would need to buy 8,000 tickets which of course isn't feasible. It would be more accurate with better hardware.

                                  I can assure you the methods you've used in the 90's are totally different than the methods I'm using in modern times.

                                      Lottery numbers are designed to be random, and no amount of data analysis or computing power can predict future draws with any meaningful accuracy. While analyzing past lottery numbers may reveal some patterns purely by chance, these patterns do not influence future outcomes due to the random nature of each draw.

                                      Even with billions of data points and multiple computers, trying to predict lottery outcomes is not feasible because of the inherent randomness built into the system.

                                      You are wasting your money. No matter how much computing power you invests in, predicting lottery numbers is impossible. The investment in high-performance hardware or cloud services will not bring any closer to a solution because there is no pattern or algorithm that can predict random events like lottery draws.

                                      No. Chasing this might be caused by a strange mix of Gamblers Fallacy and Confirmation Bias, the illusion of control, etc etc.... Give it up and spend your time and money on something else.

                                        Decades ago we got in manipulating slot machines.
                                        We bought some tricks and make a profit by counting rolls.
                                        When the rolls where right, put more at stake.
                                        Could take playing from 15 minutes to several hours to get the whole slotmachine empty.
                                        I spent months in gambling places. What an depressive atmosphere!
                                        All kind of addicts looking at a machine for hours, losing money.

                                        I know someone who put money in a stockt trading script that made him money few years ago.
                                        He put in more money to develop it. And than the developer/partner won the "lottery".
                                        His "Partner" took off with all the money people put up in the ... ponzi scheme.
                                        Partner still didn't come back and is somewhere on a beach.

                                        There must be a trick out there that could bring in millions!
                                        Maybe buy a slotmachine, let it roll and see if AI can makes a new trick to play with profit.
                                        Or read out the chip to see it is really random, and how to manipulate that.
                                        People bought slotmachines to test, now AI can test it.

                                        everything is fake

                                          Dude, Just don’t do it (Not like the Nike motto), a lot of folks have triedd out different tech like this, and it rarely works and when it does its only for a shortwhile

                                                  I believe in you!
