Have just discovered I got a bit confused over using the accept or refuse options - something I usually have to double check when I use them.
I have a number of uniform ten number groups like
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
etc
or
1 3 5 7 9 10 11 13 15 17 19
2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20
etc
and seven more 4x10 groups for our 40 ball lottery. That's a total of 36 ten number groups.
Then I look for the groups which have had the same number of numbers come up in the last three draws.
ie
Draw1 1 3 7 25 29 33
Draw2 2 4 6 13 26 38
Draw3 1 7 8 25 26 35
That's 3 consecutive draws with 3 numbers from the 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 group.
It is also 3 consecutive draws with 1 number from the 31 to 40 group.
I look for all the other similar instances - I have seven such groups for my next draw.
Add a filter group to a complex filter
Add the Match Number filter as many times as necessary which is seven in my case
Add the numbers for each group and select the number of the Match Count from the three previous draws and choose Reject.
For the Filter Group select how many you want to gamble on passing in the next draw.
If I select 3 of 7 to pass ...a 3% reduction
If I select 4 of 7 to pass ...a 13% reduction
If I select 5 of 7 to pass ...a 34% reduction
If I select 6 of 7 to pass ...a 64% reduction
If I select all to pass .......a 90% reduction
I opt for one more than half to pass .... that's 4 of 7.
13% doesn't sound like a lot but it's 480,000 of my 3,838,380 possibilities gone with a good chance of being right.
