Across the world, serious lottery players are searching for lottery number patterns that can provide them one advantage. There is just one such lottery strategy that is proven to provide them an edge. It utilizes lottery number patterns that exist in most lotteries. They’re called Longshots.
In the event that you don’t determine what Longshots are, we’ll start with some history as well as a definition. A few years back there was a lottery strategy that became rather popular that, for lack of a better name, we’ll call the Hot Number Strategy. As well as it came the average marketing hype that you would expect. The pitch went something like this:
Since more than 80% of all winning lottery numbers Hit in the last 10 drawings, create your play list from the winners in the last 10 drawings. This will certainly improve your probability of winning the lottery.
Originally, it sounds plausible enough. But, let’s think of this. Implicit within this strategy will be the opposite side of the coin. Any lottery numbers that have not Hit within the last 10 drawings will be considered a rather dubious pick. Hence, these lottery numbers were named Longshots. The name persists to this day and I even use it. Nevertheless, I don’t malign the usage of Longshots. In fact, I applaud them. Including Longshots in a play list is an absolute necessity for almost any viable lottery strategy.
For all of those lottery players who got caught up in the Hot Number Strategy hype, this was, without doubt, a really expensive lesson. A lot of money was spent with little to show for it.
Excluding Longshots resulted in a Hot Number Strategy disaster. The truth is, including Longshots will be essential to any viable lottery strategy because, on the common, 25% to 40% of the winning numbers are Longshots! You heard me right; 25% to 40%.
This has been true for every lottery in the US and Canada for over twenty years. That’s when I started analyzing them. The percentage varies from lottery to lottery as the size of the lotteries change. By way of example, the percentage is higher for a 6/52 lottery than it’s for a 6/44 online lottery. Still, you can rest assured that this lottery number pattern is as solid as a rock.
It really is simple for anyone to verify this. Well, maybe without a great lottery software program, not so simple. Yet, in any event, this is the approach. List all of the lottery numbers which have Hit in the last 10 drawings for each lottery drawing. Any lottery number not in the list has to be a Longshot. Count the range of winning numbers in the next drawing that were Longshots. Do this for the entire lottery history. If you average the number of Longshots who were winners, you will find the answer lies somewhere between 25 and 40 percent.
How can you take advantage of this data? Assuming that the answer you got was 30%, then, on an average, 30% of the winning numbers in the next drawing could be Longshots. If you were playing a 6/48 lottery, consequently you should expect 1.8 winning numbers to be Longshots. (30% x 6 = 1.8) Remember, this does not happen every drawing but it’s unwaveringly persistent over-time. One example is in Lotto Texas, at least 1 of the winning numbers is a Longshot 89% of the time! Basically, you may count on it.
This shows why the Hot Number Strategy practitioners wasted so much money. On the standard, their play lists were coming up 1.8 numbers short. This must have been (but still is) very frustrating for the players using this weak lottery strategy.
Some of you are, without doubt, asking the way you may take benefit from Longshot when you play. Continuing with the example above, it’s very simple. Let’s say you choose to pare down a 48 number lottery to a 37 number play list with the assistance of lottery analysis software. Not much of a bad strategy since you have eliminated 9,946,728 wagers from play! Since you are expecting 30% of the winning lottery numbers to be Longshots, you ensure that 11 of those 37 lottery numbers in your play list are Longshots. (30%x37=11.1)
It’s hard to imagine any lottery strategy that does not include Longshots. Serious lottery players everywhere use it. This really is called playing the odds. The truth is, that’s what all successful gamblers do; play the odds.
