The winning numbers were 6  9  11  24  30  I got 3 numbers this time.  This is because I am looking more at the number of hits in the last 5 to 10 games.  This technique is closer to What is taught in Larry Blair’s Lotto Black Book and Mark Bower’s Winning the Lottery in Three Steps.

The Characteristic numbers did not work this time.  I computed them as being 1 and 2.  Often even if the exact characteristic numbers do not hit, at least one to three on either side of them hit.  This works about 75% of the time.

Lets see if my theory is correct.  My characteristic numbers for 5-6 are 6  12  18  24  30.  That is too many numbers to be of much value but I am predicting that those numbers or up to 3 on either side of them will hit.  That is partially how I got the below numbers.

My numbers for 5-6 are 6  18  19  22  27  32  35  36

And the winning draw was  3  14  21  24  25

You can see that one of the Characteristic numbers hit 24.  Like I said there were too many this time to be of much use but notice that 25 also hit.  I mentioned this above where the 3 numbers on either side of a characteristic number will also hit.

I did not pick 24 because it hit in the last Fantasy Five game.   I need to get over that mentality because about 90% of the time one number from a prior game will hit in the subsequent game.  The trick is figuring out which one and then deciding on the other 4.

2  4  5  8  12  19  20  27  29  36

5-12 draw   1  2  34  35  37

Just 1 number.  Actually 1 and 37 were on my original list but I removed them to limit the total numbers picked to 10.  Also 37 was on my 5-1-12 list.  It is what Larry Blair refers to as a “leap frog” as it jumped over 36,  I should have stuck with it.  As for 34 a and 35 they are a mystery.  34, 35 and 37 are something that actually happens a lot.  The actual draw numbers end up being on one or both sides, right next to your pick.  To be safe I could have picked the number on either side of my picks, but then I would have a much larger list of numbers which defeats what I am trying to do.

My numbers were 3  5  6  9  10  12  15  19  27  37.  I am trying to not go over 10 numbers but it is difficult.  I then put them in an abbreviated wheel to win 4 out of 5.  This gave me 30 lines which is too much so I did not put any money down.

The winning draw was 6  9  11  16  22.

This time I got 2 numbers 6 and 9.  I had picked those from using the “Characteristic number” analysis as taught in Winning the Lottery in Three Steps.

There is a strange phenomena going on that I have seen before.  I picked 15 because in the past 60 games it has hit 10 times.  Its average skips is 6 and current skips before this draw were 12 with a maximum skips of 12.  It should have hit.  Instead 16 hit with much less likely stats.  I know the critics will tell me that this is all random and it is impossible to predict these numbers.  I do not believe that.  I believe that even randomness has order to it.  It is just a matter of finding it.

For those not familier with this game it has a main number pool from 1 to 56.  You also have to pick a Mega or bonus number from 1 through 46.  The payouts can be enourmous as the March 2012 game proved with a record breaking $640,000,000 first prize.

First of all right now I am not spending much time picking the mega number as it is just too difficult at this time.  Just concentrating on the first five main pool numbers is enough.

I limited the amount of numbers I chose for the main number pool to 10.  They were as follows:

4  13  22  27  28  30  45  48  51  52  with a mega of 43.  I put them in an abbreviated wheel to win 4 out of 5.

The winning draw was 5  47  2  46  45  mega 37.

I got one number 45.  Not so great.  That is ok though.  There is quite a bit of information to cover and I did not even come close to using everything.  I put down $5 for the fun of it.

The part that is not easy is keeping your motivation while going through a losing streak.  This is unavoidable because even the best lottery system requires a certain amount of luck in order to win.

For a person to stay motivated while going through the unavoidable losing streak they need what Ken Silver, the creator of the Silver Lotto System calls “play persistence”.

Everyone has a dream of what they would do with their lotto winnings. Some would like to travel, some help family or friends or just have the peace of mind of not worrying about financial problems.

Would you like to purchase a home, donate to charities, take a vacation or be able to pay for your children’s college education?  Whatever your dream is, you need to make it your goal for winning so that you will have a purpose for playing.

Whatever your purpose, you need to Write in detail the dreams you desire to achieve. Put down in detail what you most like to accomplish and leave it where you can see it every day.  Try to add pictures to help make it more real to you.

This technique of writing down your goals with pictures is very powerful.  This is actually called a “vision board” and was one of the techniques mentioned in the movie “The Secret.”

You will get your motivation and inspiration when you see your goal written down or in a picture.  Creating a vision board is part of your play persistence strategy to keep you on the correct path, help you stay motivated and continue playing so you can win the lottery when others have given up.

Ken: It really all started with the lotto system. I first developed the Silver Lotto System in the early 90′s, and it sold really well through direct mail. After a couple of years success with it I wrote a “how-to” manual about my experience and how others could do it–which also sold well. In fact you can still buy it today. Then I went on to sell it over the internet in the mid-90′s and sales increased massively. I wrote another, “eBook Secrets” about writing How-To ebooks, and together my manuals have sold over a million copies from myself and other marketers who bought the limited number of Rights.

Q: Tell us how you developed your special lotto system.

Ken: Well, for several years in the late 80′s I had been looking for ways to turn the lottery to my advantage, and I studied a lot of material. It was an interesting period. You wouldn’t believe the weird, off the wall theories out there. I even read one book that claimed several thousand people could ‘will’ the numbers they wanted through mass ESP – Extra Sensory Perception.

Q: Strange solutions indeed. How did you figure out your own system then?

Ken: Through a lot of hard thought and lateral thinking. It helped that my late father was a brilliant optical engineer, and some of his analytical mathematical abilities might have rubbed off me! When I found the “eureka” solution that seemed to work, I spent a further couple of years researching and checking it. Although at that time I had computers that might have sped the whole research process up, the Silver Lotto System doesn’t actually work on patterned or computed numbers. So it had to be done by hand. Took a while.

Q: Why is your system so different that you couldn’t use a computer?

Ken: I found that despite the blinding speed and computational abilities of modern systems even back then, no-one had actually come up with a way to predict a win from past draws. This was the breakthrough for me. It simply told me this: That no-one can actually predict winning numbers through analyzing and extrapolating past results. And when I realized this, it made my own system solution much more valuable as a result. So, although it took a while to figure out, suddenly I had found the ‘missing link’ to winning lotto.

Q: If you say that no-one can predict a win, how does your system work then?

Ken: The system works mainly by eliminating the millions of number combinations that won’t win. For example, you’ll never see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in a winning draw… that is pretty unlikely. And there are countless other losing combinations too. My Silver Lotto System identifies these, leaving the potential winning combinations. Easy–once you know how!

Q. How is the Silver Lotto System different from other systems out there, like Wheeling?

Ken: Wheeling just gives a variety of number combinations. It doesn’t make any distinction between good and bad number combinations, so most times you are wasting your money on the many poor number selections in them. With the Silver Lotto System, EVERY line has the best number combination you can find, which hugely increases the chances of winning. That makes it different from almost every other system I’ve studied. (And if you find a system that works like the Silver Lotto System, you can bet your bottom dollar that it was adapted from mine!)

Q: OK, that sounds good. But has anyone won with your system?

Ken: Yes indeed, many people. An Australian guy won AU$$3.2 million. Another won $281,183.09. And several round the world have won prizes of $100,000.00. Another won $70,634.60 on the Canada 6/49. Many people around the globe have covered their costs, and won smaller amounts up to $50,000.00. One of the main advantages with my system is that you can be winning moderate amounts WHILE you are waiting for the Big Win to come along–as it eventually will.

Q: Is waiting part of your system? Why can’t we get the main prize straight off?

Ken: What many folks don’t realize is that when a system like mine can’t predict a winning game, the next best thing is to ‘wait in line’ for your winning turn. So what you’re doing here is still winning while you’re waiting for the big one. The Silver Lotto System puts you in the win line, right up near the top of the queue. When the right combination of winning figures strikes – you will have the correct number combination to win it. The best thing about my system is that you don’t have to wait several thousand years – as one academic predicted for other systems. It could be just a small number of games before the right combination is hit.

Q: So we might have to be patient? That’s hard to do!

Ken: Many people don’t have the patience to keep going, even when the draws go against them, but the real winners will persist. There’s a story I read in a book about the first British Camelot lottery. Two partners in a double glazing window business took out over a thousand pounds a week (that’s about US$1400) to play the game. They were almost broke at the 3 month mark, but – luckily for them then – they won several million pounds! This is an extreme example of how persistence pays off.

Q: I was going to bring that up, Ken. Is there another way we can win lotto quicker with your system?

Ken: Sure. Just increase the number of tickets you play. For example, when I play in my country, I buy 60-120 lines. My chance of winning is very much less if I were only able to take out 2 lines a game.

Q: Are you saying you’ve got to spend a fortune each week then?

Ken: Definitely not. Every single line using the Silver Lotto System gives you a better chance than any other system I know. But the more lines you have in each game, the higher your chances become. So if you can’t afford many lines each week, you should maybe wait a month and play then what you were going to spend each week. But I emphasis to everybody playing any lotto game at all–make sure it is money you can afford to lose. Because it might take weeks before you make it back or get a major win.

Q: From your website and what you’re saying here, you sure don’t sound like someone trying to sell your system. You’ve covered the downside of playing too.

Ken: Sure. Most other systems out there are highly optimistic about you winning, but they’re mainly based on guesswork and wrongly-calculated maths. I believe mine is the first representation of what you can and can’t do with a system.

Q: Thanks for your time here. Is there a last word you want to say?

Ken: Yes, I’d like to say to all future Silver Lotto System owners this… take a good look at my system. Don’t spend your last cent on playing. And above all, keep going – - even when your wins are small or take a while to come through. You WILL eventually triumph!

Stick to one game – Do not jump around from game to game.  If you play a 6 number game, then a 3 number then 5 number game etc, you are not going to have the same success as if you spent your budgeted lotto money on one game instead of spreading it around.

Stick with the lower number games – You will have a much better chance of beating the lottery by sticking with a 39 number game than if you play a 55 number game which probably also requires a mega or power number match to win the top prize.  Sure the higher number games pay higher top prizes, but you will have to pick more correct numbers to win the larger amounts.

For example, the California Fantasy Five game requires you to match 5 out of 5 numbers from 1 through 39 with no mega number match required.  The top prize ranges from $50,000 through over $400,000 depending on how many games go by with no 5 out of 5 winners.

Those prize amounts are not in the millions, but you can still do a lot with $50,000 or so.

Stick with the same numbers for each game.  This is the one of the main features of the Silver Lotto system.  If you are budgeted to play 5 sets of numbers each week, then stick with those numbers.  It is a difficult concept to understand but the Silver lotto System is based on statistical analysis.  Instead of trying to hit a moving target, sit still and eventually the target will come to you.

Be persistent and play as many times a week as you can afford to increase your chances of winning.  Success in every endeavor requires persistence and consistency.  The Silver Lotto System method of playing the same set of numbers for each game makes this much easier than other systems because you do not have to waste time analyzing a large set of numbers each time you want to play.  I have a very comprehensive lottery software system I purchased before I bought Ken Silver’s system, but even it requires spending time analyzing the data.

Strive for balance in your life – Don’t turn the desire to beat the lottery into an obsession.  This will only lead to frustration and ultimately failure.  Play with a positive attitude and because you enjoy playing.  If your level of success does not meet the expectations set up by an obsession, then you will no longer enjoy playing and eventually stop and all of your prior plays will have been for nothing.

Finally, purchase the Silver Lotto System.  You can test it like I did without risking any money on lottery tickets.
