re: With a high powerball jackpot this week, time to crush some dreams...

I set two windows on my second monitor and let them run most of the day.

On one, I picked my own numbers and played them for every single ticket. On the other, I did the default quick pick, different every ticket.

Seems like my odds should be the same whether I use the same numbers or different ones every time, but I was never really good at statistics.

After over 16 millennia, the constant numbers yielded more winnings.

Self-picked, constant


Quick pick each ticket
