Filters which work best (more often) for you?

My favourite is the Match Winning Numbers filter - I believe I have it working successfully close to 100% of draws with an approx 55% reduction in lines for a 6 from 40 lotto. Being able to confidently 'reject' 2 million of 3.8 million lines is just wicked! :) An example - for my 6/40 lotto it is VERY rare for any winning line to have less than 2 previously drawn set of 4 numbers or more than 7 of the same in the last 1960 draws. Now I just need some more filters like this - filters which rely less on the percentage of occurrence.

I might be over-working my poor computer unnecessarily. Need to do more testing but am finding that using Match Winning Numbers on the last 10 draws with settings 2 to 5 (min and max) for 0, 1 and 2 matches and no 3 number matches is giving me around 1.2 million lines and so far giving me the winning line for the current draw.

Changed my mind on this 2nd strategy - further testing showed it to not be as good as I thought. Oh well.
