This is obviously exciting and unlikely, but keep in mind that last week's set of numbers has exactly the same chance of being drawn as any other specific set of numbers.
What I find interesting is that 18 people picked them correctly. If it's manipulation, it's pretty dumb (ie, if you can rig the lotto, why use such obvious numbers?). Makes me wonder how many people may choose to play 'last week's numbers' every week, the same way others play birthdays and anniversaries?
- ghshephard 17y agoWell, in Bulgaria, it turns out that no more than 18 people play 'last week's numbers.' every week.
- jacquesm 17y agoCorrection, in Bulgaria it turns out that no more than 18 people played 'last week's numbers' last week. Next week that is probably going to be very different.
- ghshephard 17y agoPlease note that last week is a subset of every week, so I'll stand on my original analysis - I make no claims about the one off case of _next_ week. :-)
- jacquesm 17y agohehe. touche :) I yield to the master.
