My father used lists of previous winning numbers and a "system" he adapted from Keno (which he mostly lost at). Once I was with him when he was buying lottery tickets and I bought one with the numbers 1-2-3-4-5-6. My dad came unglued, asking me if I understood how unlikely my numbers were to hit. Exactly as likely as his, I tried to explain, but he didn't get it.
- jeffwass 11y agoYour dad was on the right track though, but for a different reason. 1,2,3,4,5,6 is a (relatively) common choice of numbers people buy in lotteries, so if those numbers win you're more likely to have to split the pot.
