4.1. Method #1: Lottery WheelsA wheeling system is basically a pattern, which orders the numbers you have chosen into bets. Although they may be called by a number of names (cover, system, block design, constant weight covering code, or lottosystem), they are most frequently called wheels. The best way to demonstrate the concept is through an example. In a lottery with five numbers, a full wheel from seven numbers holds 21 possible combinations:
(Of course, you likely wouldn’t use one to seven. Instead, you’d substitute all the ones with your first chosen number, all the twos with your second and so on.) This system can be used repeatedly with different numbers. A successful lottery wheel will be structured that if the winning numbers are in your selected numbers, you will always have some prize in your bets. There are two types of wheels: full and abbreviated.
A full wheel is self-explanatory. It includes EVERY possible combination from the chosen group of numbers. A full wheel is used to shoot for the big prize, but also to go for as many smaller prizes as possible. If you have every combination, it is impossible to go wrong! Example: A full wheel with 12 numbers means you’d play 924 games to make sure you had every possible order of six numbers. More examples:
There will be 252 combinations Using 15 numbers = 3,003 combinations With 30 numbers = 142,506 combinations. Benefits The most obvious advantage of a full wheel is that if all the drawn numbers match up with your wheeled numbers, you will for sure win a major jackpot. As well, if you’ve used a full wheel and even a few of your numbers show up, you will likely come up with a substantial amount of wins. Disadvantage You had to know there was going to be one! And you’ve probably already guessed it… The biggest disadvantage to a full wheel is, of course, the cost. As in the earlier mentioned examples, the more numbers and combinations you include, the more tickets you have to buy. A Pick 5 full wheel with 30 numbers has 142,506 possible combinations. Imagine handing over $285,012 at $2 a play to a gas station clerk in order to ensure a win at the lottery! You might just break even. Because of the required investment, full lottery wheels work best for large pools or lotto clubs. It means sharing the cost, but also sharing the win.
An abbreviated wheel is just a set with fewer combinations. It provides a lowest amount win guarantee if specific conditions are maintained. The key function is to try for a particular lower prize, like the second or third largest. For example: A Pick 5 game with seven numbers and three combinations and a guarantee 4/5 means:
Just as, in playing a Pick 6: a 14 number abbreviated wheel that guarantees a 4/ 6 win means playing 14 games instead of 3003 when using a full wheel. Here’s what an abbreviated wheel might look like:
In a Pick 6 game, it wheels eight numbers (1-8) in seven combinations. Should four of the six winning numbers be among the eight-wheeled numbers, you can count on at least one winning combination matching four drawn numbers. Benefit It’s purely economics, baby! Fewer games mean less investment. Abbreviated wheels can allow lotto players a still significant amount of numbers at a less expensive price. Yet, it will offer up a win should your numbers be drawn. You can still hit multiple prizes, and even that illusive jackpot. Still, the more numbers you play, the more you increase your chances of your wheeled numbers being drawn. Disadvantage Essentially, the biggest loss with an abbreviated wheel is that “in the bag” jackpot should your numbers be drawn. This is obviously because you didn’t play all combinations. Abbreviated wheels can’t guarantee any more than its specified prize, because it only covers the number combinations needed for that prize. You still could receive a bigger prize than you would without using the wheel, several prizes or even the jackpot. But, unlike the full wheel, it is not guaranteed. Overall Benefits of wheeling systems By its nature, a lottery wheel encourages its users to play more than one ticket. As your overall odds of winning at lotto are theoretically based on how many times you bet, a wheel technically increases your chance of winning. In addition, if your selected numbers match up to the drawn numbers verbatim, a wheel guarantees a winning a prize. You take your favorite numbers (your child’s birthday, your anniversary, and the date of the first time you saw Star Wars) and the wheel arranges them. If your intuition is right (that is every number you’ve selected falls in drawn group) and the wheel you are using has no errors, you are a guaranteed prizewinner. Overall Disadvantages Although a wheeling system technically increases your odds, a play is still a play. That is, there is the same chance of winning for every ticket. Example: The odds are one in 1,276,559 for whatever lotto you are playing. Each bet still holds a one in 1,276,599 chance of becoming a jackpot winner. Wheels could also potentially decrease the likelihood of winning a prize. In some cases (such as when at least three winning numbers not being the same as those you’ve wheeled) there is no chance of you winning. No matter how many times you’ve played! Wheels are primarily for those with a group of numbers who need a way to distribute them into bets. If you don't have a group of around eight to 25 numbers that you want to place your lottery dreams on, wheeling is maybe not the best option for you.
The Internet is simultaneously a nightmare and a dream when it comes to sites offering wheel software. The possibilities are seemingly endless. And while this may seem ideal, there are too many to count, too many to research and too many to consider every one. Computer generated wheeling systems offered on these sites work by checking the numbers to make sure the combinations have been ordered correctly. Some software programs contain errors that obviously do more harm than good. Many sites offer free trials, which sound good because they let you try the software out before you buy. Still, the best advice to anyone looking to buy a lottery system is BUYER BEWARE! Any program of any type that claims to be able to make its players instant millionaires is probably lying. After all, if the people hawking these systems have all the answers to winning the lotto, why are they selling them for $29.99 instead of laying on a beach smirking and soaking up the sun? Those programs that are being advertised in an ethical way will give specifics of what it has to offer you. Here are a few things to consider when paying for software: 1. Think about the advertisement versus what the program will actually do. Once you’ve forked over your cash, whatever you were promised is irrelevant. What are your expectations before you purchased the software? What will you actually find once you begin using it? 2. Complete Software is a must. Don’t stand for hidden costs. Look for small print about add-on modules, wheeling systems, or anything similar. 3. Make sure you are buying into total support. Technical support should not cost extra. As the user of a software, you are entitled to it. For NON software solution click banner below:
