I'd believe it. Many years ago when I was around 10 years old and not understanding the concept of probability properly, I decided I had come up with a way to enumerate the lottery numbers and come up with a reasonably sized set of numbers to place bets for. I proceeded to write 9 pages of numbers for my father to place bets for. It is a 6/49 lottery so 6 balls are drawn from a set of 49 and you need to get all of them right to get the jackpot. It would have cost a little under 95$ to have played all my numbers (for a jackpot around $1.5M) I gave him however it would have taken a lot of effort to manually enter them. My father just does one page because it is silly. The numbers are silly, everything about this is silly. I completely understand in hindsight. But it turned out page 7 had the winning combination.
