Some experts who offer gambling advice advocate the “most often used lottery number” theory. People who adhere to this idea study the the historical lottery numbers drawn. They add up all of the numbers, and then select the ones that draw the most attention. The ones that draw most often are thought of as “hot.” The reason for this is because they were drawn by the most during the previous time, they are likely to be the most popular in the near future. This means you’d be more likely to hitting a jackpot u
To test whether the “most often used lottery” numbers theory is true the way you want, all you have to do is review the previous drawings to see whether “hot” numbers drawn in any particular year remain “hot” the next year. For instance you could take a look at every one of the Powerball draws from 2008 and determine the numbers that were drawn most. If these numbers were drawn the most often in 2009 The theory could be valid.
I did actually check to determine what the top drawn Powerball numbers for in 2008 as well as 2009 are. In 2008 the numbers included 20, 32 and 49. In 2009, they were 14 41 and 50, and 41. This means that if the case you were playing the hot numbers of 2008, they weren’t anymore hot in 2009. It is likely that you wouldn’t have been able to win with these numbers. So, this theory is not able to hold any validity.
