I'm looking at our office pool Powerball numbers. You know these were quick picks because no human would select some of these combos.

33 39 60 62 66 + 9.

So I guess we're not using birthdays this time?

1 55 56 66 68 + 22.

OK, Bob's birthday, but that's it.

1 2 3 5 35 + 6.

This one makes my OCD hurt.

12 15 24 45 53 + 18.

I like numbers divisible by 3... and which contain a 3.

I once got a QP with 4 numbers in a row, I almost was going to give it back and have them print another (they can void a previous tix if it hasn't - Chateau du zeitgeist Jan 13, 17:37
all combinations are equally improbable (i think). so i try not to even dwell on numbers -- nm* - slipping jimmy Jan 13, 17:36 3
- Yes, all combos are the same. I'm just thinking in terms of human behavior. -- nm - Oswaldo MoBarony Jan 13, 17:42
- there was a lotto draw here recently where 4 of the numbers were within 5 - Reagen Jan 13, 17:39
- From what I read though you are most likely to split the jackpot with others for certain scenarios. - Bacon Jan 13, 17:39
