I DO,... I really do!
I have evidence that people are to blame (and not the game itself), ...but will you act accordingly when I show you this LOGICAL evidence?
Listen, ... here's the UNDENIABLE truth:
When jackpots reach MONSTROUS levels, the sheer volume of EXTRA ticket sales caused by hysteria SHOULD make the positive outcome of the jackpot
NEVITABLE ...
I said "SHOULD"!
After all, with such a MASSIVE volume of ticket sales, all possible combinations COULD be covered at least ONCE or TWICE, but that's NOT what's happening ...
What's happening is this:
(1) Players who pick their own numbers not only pick the SAME popular numbers (hooked up in different combinations), they play TOTALLY WRONG distributions too ...
AND ...
... (2) the millions of players who stick to RANDOM quick-picks do NOT realize that many (but NOT all) quick picks have totally wrong distributions too!
INCREDIBLY, this keeps happening week after week and draw after draw!
If players would realize this (and act accordingly) then those jackpots would NOT keep rolling over so many times like they do now! I guarantee you!
The question remains ... will YOU act accordingly next time?
For this week, here's what's at stake:
- Euro Millions : $240,616,000 USD
- Mega Millions USA : $224,000,000 USD
- Powerball USA : $125,000,000 USD
- Florida Lotto : $39,000,000 USD
- Eurojackpot : $21,528,800 USD
- Canada Lotto Max : $13,368,000 USD
- Wisconsin Megabucks : $13,100,000 USD
- New York Lotto : $10,100,000 USD

EuroMillions For Your Info This Friday
EuroMillions has now hit the magic €190M. That means 2 very important things.
1. It's big. OK, you knew that already ;-)
2. It's a rolldown draw. That means everything in excess of €190M that would normally go in the jackpot fund, will now 'roll down' into the next prize tier below.
That makes this Friday, October 24th, a draw you should definitely consider
playing.
Rolldown draws are rare. When they happen, they greatly increase your chance of winning a bigger prize.
The next draw will be even more important if the jackpot does not go on Friday. But I'll talk about that if it happens.
So How Should You Play This One?
Every way you can :-)

Buy more tickets. Buy more syndicate entries. Spend those small wins you've been putting aside.
Maximise your play for this draw, but don't blow your budget. Especially as there's a chance next Tuesday's draw could be even more important.

2014 Los Angles Lakers Prediction
The biggest offseason storyline for the Lakers was its coaching search that ended with Byron Scott taking on the position. The former Lakers guard has largely been remembered for his uneventful coaching stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers from 2010 to 2013, but Byron Scott also has consecutive trips to the NBA Finals as coach of the New Jersey Nets and a deep playoff run with the New Orleans Hornets highlighted on his resume.
Byron Scott has the right credentials and skill set to lead the Lakers back into NBA relevance, but the rebuild will take a few years. Without a big midseason trade the team may need a few more years before it puts together a legitimate championship contender. The best-case scenario for Los Angeles Lakers is to have another bad year and hope to fall into another lottery pick. The team, however, added just enough talent that it might get stuck in the no-man’s land of having a .500 record.
Los Angeles Lakers took a huge hit over the offseason when Gasol chose to leave the Lakers to sign with Chicago. The departure was not unexpected as Gasol’s unhappiness with the organization that dangled his name as trade bait for three straight years was well known around the NBA league. Despite the loss, the Los Angeles Lakers added some talent over the offseason and actually upgraded last year’s horrendous 27-55 team.
The Los Angeles Lakers took forward Julius Randle with the seventh pick in the NBA draft and may have a solid big man to help rebuild a championship squad in the future. The Lakers also signed Jeremy Lin and Boozer during free agency and the Lakers seems to have a 35- to 40-win team on its hands if Bryant can continue to stay healthy.
The Lakers do NOT have much of a chance at making the playoffs, let alone competing for a title—that is, of course, if it does not pull off a mega deal before the trade deadline. The Laker’s futures wagers do have value, however, simply because the organization is known for making huge moves and reloading its team. The Lakers are +6600 on the futures at 5DIMES.
Expect Bryant and Randle to have solid years, with both staying in the conversation for the MVP and ROY awards, respectively. At the moment Los Angeles does not have the talent to compete for the playoffs, but that could all change come February—so a small bet, especially for Lakers fans, could turn into a smart move.

2014 Los Angeles Clippers Prediction
The 2014 season will most likely be a different since former Microsoft executive Steve Ballmer is now in control of the Clippers and ready to turn around an organization that was known for mediocrity and dysfunction over the last 40 years. In addition, Ballmer paid a bundle for the Clippers! The Clippers are on the short list of title contenders and is expected to improve as star forward Blake Griffin enters his prime and the team adds new pieces to support point guard Chris Paul’s playmaking abilities. In fact, the Clippers have taken over the sunlight from the Lakers.
The Los Angeles Clippers core of Paul, Griffin and Rivers as coach is one of the most talented foundations in the NBA league and may be rivaled by only San Antonio, Oklahoma City, and Cleveland. The Clippers have been at the forefront of the NBA for three seasons, and since Rivers is in his second year with the team now might be the time for the squad to make a deep playoff run.
Of course, there will not be much pressure on the Clippers to win a championship this season, but at a certain point the team needs to prove that it can be a legitimate threat to win the Western Conference, if not the entire NBA. Even so, expectations will still be high for the Clippers heading into the 2014-2015 season.
The Clippers will essentially be returning the same team as last year’s 57-win squad, but the Clippers were able to add two quality role players and potential key contributors in Spencer Hawes and Jordan Farmar during the offseason. the Clippers’ biggest loss, however, was Darren Collison, who signed with Sacramento during free agency.
The Clippers are expected to be nearly $20 million over the salary cap for the 2014 season and may be handicapped in making any potential roster moves throughout the year. The team, however, will be more concerned with getting the most out of Paul and Griffin, while hoping DeAndre Jordan continues to evolve as a basketball player. Rivers’ crew does not need any more talent on board; what they need is continued on-court leadership, a shut-down defense, and quality production off the bench.
The Clippers have quite a few futures wagers on the board at 5dimes. The Clippers are +900 to win the NBA championship.

Mega Millions And Powerball - 3 Ways To Win Big
First and foremost you can get Mega Millions and Powerball numbers to hit the big one, but you are NOT going to get them together by simply playing your birthday or anniversary. To get a little closer towards the big checks, consider the following tips and tricks in regards to the lotto.
Mixing The Numbers – The first thing that you will want to do is make sure that you have a good mixture of numbers. Do NOT rely only on a set of consecutive numbers, or repeating decimal places, pick a good set of numbers that alternate between odds and evens. By mixing the numbers up and making sure that you are NOT stemming into superstition in your picking, you will be able to get the odds to shift towards your favor.
Repetition – One thing that most people do NOT realize is that the winning numbers cycle through every now and again. The winning numbers that appear today, will become the winning numbers down the road, the question is when? That is what most people do NOT know, but you can get in on the money by ascertaining when the next winning numbers are going to strike. In order to take advantage of this, you will have to keep a log of all the winning numbers and study for patterns. There will be obvious patterns and you will be able to decipher what numbers to get.
Software – The last tip you can utilize to win Mega Millions and/or Powerball is to look for number software. There is software out there that cannot only generate the correct numbers, but do so on a continual basis. You can end up winning multiple times, and that is NOT too shabby.
The above tips might NOT sit well with those that are skeptical. Those that are naysayers can simply stay where they are and NOT win, but those that want a serious chance at taking home triple digit millions should consider the aforementioned.

Why Go To A Horse Race
I got to thinking last week why you’d want to visit a horse racetrack anyway. Well, perhaps you are thinking, “That’s something my grandpa liked to do, but I’m not interested.”
Especially, if you are watching horse racing at the higher levels of the sport. I do like to gamble a little. Especially, sports betting and horse betting. I personally do NOT see the fun in losing my shorts in some dark, smoky casino. But, you can make money in sports betting and horse betting if you know what you are doing. Horse racing feels like entertainment, an experience, an outing. In addition, I like that I’m outside. I like that there’s a lot of history and tradition behind horse racing. All in all, whether I win or lose money, I still have a great time for a lot less money than going to a sports event.
These days if you want to take the family to a pro basketball or football game, the tickets and food can easily run you $400. Admission to a horse racetrack is often free except for maybe parking. In addition, the minimum bet on each horse race is just $2, and you can sometimes bring your own food and drinks. You get to spend all afternoon and evening outside, watching beautiful animals, and race horses are beautiful, perform at their peak ability. And the best part is that all this can run you less than a trip to the movies.
And if you are looking for an affordable and unique date, the horse racetrack is where you should go! Besides, where you will NOT run out of things to talk about!

Little Known Facts of World Series Games
1.Game 7 has been won by the home team in the last 9 World Series that have gone to seven games (the 1982 St. Louis Cardinals, 1985 Kansas City Royals, 1986 New York Mets, 1987 and 1991 Minnesota Twins, 1997 Florida Marlins, 2001 Arizona Diamondbacks, 2002 Anaheim Angels, and 2011 St. Louis Cardinals). The 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates are the last team to win a World Series Game 7 on the road. This trend reverses the previous historical trend in which Game 7 had been most often won by the road team, in 1979, 1975, 1972, 1971, 1968, 1967, 1965, and 1962. During the 1960s and 1970s, the home team had won Game 7 only in 1960, 1964, and 1973. Since 2003, when home field advantage started to be awarded to the team representing the league that won the All-Star game, the first Series that reached Game 7 was in 2011. The greatest comeback in World Series history was in 1968, when the Detroit Tigers came back from a 3–1 game disadvantage to win Game 5 after being behind by 3 runs, before winning games 6 and 7 on the road at St. Louis.
2.The 1981 Los Angeles Dodgers are the last team to win a World Series after losing the first two games on the road (against New York). The recent tendency of a team winning the first two games at home and then winning the Series suggests the theoretical advantage to gaining home-field advantage (and the first two games at home) by winning the All-Star Game.
3.The Pittsburgh Pirates have won all five of their World Series championships in seven games.
4.The Minnesota Twins/Washington Senators have won their three World Series championships in seven games.
5.There have been 19 World Series four-game (4–0) sweeps. Nine different teams have swept a World Series at least once, the Yankees having done so most often (8 times). The Red Sox, Reds, and Giants have all done it twice. The Braves, Orioles, White Sox, Dodgers, and Athletics have each swept one Series. Six of these teams (all but the Orioles, Red Sox and White Sox) have also been swept 0–4 in at least one World Series. The Red Sox’ two World Series sweeps are the most of any team that has never been swept in one. The Reds and Yankees are the only teams to have swept each other (The Yankees swept the Reds in 1939, while the Reds swept the Yankees in 1976). The Giants are the only team to record World Series sweeps in two different cities: New York (1954) and San Francisco (2012). The 1999 Yankees are the last team to date, and the only one since 1966, to sweep a World Series it began on the road (as well as the last American League champion to date to win a World Series it began on the road). The 1963 Dodgers are the last National League team to date to sweep a World Series it began on the road.
6.The Athletics, Cardinals, Cubs, and Yankees are the only teams to be swept in two World Series. The Athletics and Yankees are the only two of these with at least one World Series sweep to their credit, the other two being among nine teams overall that have never swept a World Series, but have been swept in one (the Tigers, Astros, Indians, Padres, Phillies, Pirates, and Rockies being the others).
7.The Cubs in 1907 and the Giants in 1922 won 4 games to 0, but each of those Series’ included a tied game and are not considered to be true sweeps. In 1907, the first game was the tie and the Cubs won four straight after that. In 1922, Game 2 was the tie.
8.The Cincinnati Reds were the only National League team to sweep any World Series between 1963 and 2012, sweeping their last two series appearances to date in 1976 and 1990. When added to their Game 7 victory in 1975, this means that the Reds have won their last 9 consecutive games, making this the current longest winning streak in terms of consecutive World Series games won.
9.Nine World Series have ended with “walk-off” hits, i.e., that game and the Series ended when the home team won with a base hit in the bottom of the ninth or in extra innings:[23] 1924*, 1929, 1935, 1953, 1960*, 1991*, 1993, 1997*, and 2001*. Five of these (marked with a *) were in a deciding Game 7. In addition, the deciding Game 8 (one game had ended in a tie) of the 1912 World Series ended in a walk-off sacrifice fly.[24] Two men have ended a World Series with a walk-off home run: Bill Mazeroski in 1960 and Joe Carter in 1993. Mazeroski’s was a solo shot in the bottom of the ninth of Game 7 to win a championship for the Pittsburgh Pirates, while Carter’s was a three-run shot in Game 6 that won a championship for the Toronto Blue Jays.
10.The Philadelphia Phillies and the Tampa Bay Rays are the first teams to have an elimination game (or any game) be suspended because of weather, and not have it cancelled. Game 5 (in Philadelphia) was suspended Monday, October 27, 2008 with a 2–2 score, and resumed in the bottom of the sixth on October 29.
11.Both of the Minnesota Twins’ World Series titles since relocating to the Twin Cities from Washington, DC (where they were the first Washington Senators) were in 7 game series where all games were won by the home team. The Twins accomplished this in 1987, when the Twins defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, then 4 years later in 1991, when the Twins defeated the Atlanta Braves. The Twins victories in both series were in games 1, 2, 6, and 7, while their National League opponents won games 3, 4, and 5. This same scenario also occurred in 2001, when the Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the New York Yankees.
12.Also of note when it comes to the three series where every game was won by the home team, a pitcher was MVP. In the 1987 World Series, Frank Viola was the MVP having pitched games 1, 4, and 7, and finishing with a 2–1 record. In 1991, Jack Morris achieved the same feat pitching games 1, 4, and 7 with a 2–0 record and a no decision in game 4, and winning MVP honors. However, Morris’s MVP came on the heels of pitching 10 shutout innings in game 7. Finally, in 2001, Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson took MVP honors by being the reason the Arizona Diamondbacks were in position to win the series.
13.The Boston Red Sox have lost 4 World Series, all in 7 games. (1946, 1967, 1975, & 1986)

Game 5 (in Philadelphia) was suspended Monday, October 27, 2008 with a 2–2 score, and resumed in the bottom of the sixth on October 29.
11.Both of the Minnesota Twins’ World Series titles since relocating to the Twin Cities from Washington, DC (where they were the first Washington Senators) were in 7 game series where all games were won by the home team. The Twins accomplished this in 1987, when the Twins defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, then 4 years later in 1991, when the Twins defeated the Atlanta Braves. The Twins victories in both series were in games 1, 2, 6, and 7, while their National League opponents won games 3, 4, and 5. This same scenario also occurred in 2001, when the Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the New York Yankees.
12.Also of note when it comes to the three series where every game was won by the home team, a pitcher was MVP. In the 1987 World Series, Frank Viola was the MVP having pitched games 1, 4, and 7, and finishing with a 2–1 record. In 1991, Jack Morris achieved the same feat pitching games 1, 4, and 7 with a 2–0 record and a no decision in game 4, and winning MVP honors. However, Morris’s MVP came on the heels of pitching 10 shutout innings in game 7. Finally, in 2001, Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson took MVP honors by being the reason the Arizona Diamondbacks were in position to win the series.
13.The Boston Red Sox have lost 4 World Series, all in 7 games. (1946, 1967, 1975, & 1986)

Decoding The Racing Form
Decoding the Racing form for picking a winning horse. They are:
1. Hone your handicapping skills. Handicapping is the process of determining which horse has the best chance to win a race. It is a test of your creative intelligence, not systematic computation. To do this, you will need the Daily Racing Form, which you can buy upon entering the track.
The Daily Racing Form is full of a whole bunch of stats and figures, which I will be discussing below. Once you know how to decode the racing form, you will have a pretty good idea of which horses should do well.
2. Look at the Beyer Speed Figures. Beyer numbers often serve as a starting point in the handicapping process. Beyer Speed Figures are the bold numbers found in the middle of each DRF, indicating the horse’s past performances. Handicappers often use the horse with the highest last-race Beyer as their focus and eliminate horses that have never run a figure close to this horse’s figure. There are two numbers: pace and speed.
• Pace projections. By scanning the past performances, handicappers try to estimate the pace of the current race and determine which horse will benefit most from it. The first bold-face number, pace, shows whether the horse likes to be on the early lead or not.
• Speed projections. This is not the same as pace. Speed (the 2nd bold-faced number) shows the horse’s ability to pass other less-speedy horses as they near the finish line. Speed does not equal consistency!
3. Look at that race’s distance. Distance is one of the biggest factors when it comes to betting. If you are looking at a horse that tires out around six furlongs and you aree at the Belmont Stakes where it is a whopping twelve furlongs, you probably do not want to bet that horse.
How has your horse run in other races of this similar length?
•Distance, pace, and speed are very powerful in tandem. Looking at how your horse runs in different distances will clue you in to how the horse will perform in races of different lengths.
4. Take into account the track and the weather. This is called “track bias”: no single factor in handicapping can change the complexion of a race like a track bias. If wise bettors detect any kind of bias in the racing surface, they incorporate it into their decision-making. What is track bias? Every horse has their preferred surface, whether it is turf or dirt. You want to know how your horse will perform on whatever your track is.
•Do not forget the weather! A little rain quickly turns that dirt into mud. Take into account how your horse has performed in this type of weather, not just the type of track.
5. Consider “form cycles.” Handicappers must ask themselves questions about each horse. Is the horse’s last race a true representation of that horse’s ability? Is the horse likely to improve or regress on race day? Which horses raced against a bias last out and can be expected to offer a peak performance today? Horses, just like humans, are never 100% consistent.
•One thing to consider is the size of the purse and where the horse is coming from. If the size of the purse is large, this is one classy horse – the horse will probably be pretty consistent. And if the horse got flown in from somewhere, her owners paid a pretty penny to get the horse there, so they will probably break out all the stops to see the horse win.
6. Look at the horse’s post position. In the list of the horse’s previous races, you will see the horse’s previous post position. Sprint races around one turn usually favor outside posts, while route races (races with 2 turns) at longer distances often favor inside post positions. What is this race? And what is your horse’s post position? Has the horse run a race like this in the past and done well?
•You may want to consider other horse’s post positions, too. If a certain horse seems to be speedier on the inside and for this race is on the inside, this horse will be serious competition.

A Lottery System Changes Everything
If you have ever visited a large-scale grocery store, or even a convenience store, you probably noticed that there are a lot of areas where the lottery companies are trying to sell you on making millions of dollars with easy drawings. Some of the games that you can play in these modern times cost around $1 and can generate upwards of six figures and in some cases give you millions of dollars. If you have been wrestling with the notion of winning big money, but are afraid that the edge is not in your favor, than it is imperative that you look into something that is going to push the pendulum in your favor. The thing that is going to help you out the most is a proven lottery system.
The reason why a lottery system works best is because it changes the very framework of the lottery system and it hands you a better shot at fighting through the muck. Think of it in simple terms. The average person is selecting their numbers from their own personal life, often times wondering about lucky numbers, birthdays, and so much more. These people often times lose the lotto and go home to come up with new numbers. Now, you will change that by focusing on several key pieces of information that they are not utilizing.
The information that you are going to use is not necessarily top secret, but rather it is a part of a bigger strategy to perfect the chances of winning the lotto once, twice, or even multiple times, and legally too. It starts with playing often, more than just once or twice a week, and it requires a bit of patience at first. You will not win on your first try, but within time, you will make it to the winner’s circle and get the big oversized check.
Parts of proven lottery systems include random number generators that pick your numbers for you. These generators are legal and are utilized by every major casino that has automated lottery systems or even slot machines. By having a computer system assist you with the selection of numbers, you are getting an edge that the next person is not. If you combine tenacious playing, software, and pay close attention to the times when the lotto seems to be lackluster in terms of payout, you will crack the code. It starts with you working on a strategy away from the norm, and ends with an oversized check in your hands.
I suggest that you get Professional Gambler Chris Malcolm amazing lottery package. His amazing and proven state lottery systems use probabilities, odds, and his matrix system to Produce WINNING Tickets Night After Night.
