Our good fortune and picking skills came to an end this evening - partially thanks to history being made on the drawing. For the last six drawings there was 3 even and 2 odd white balls picked - something that doesn't occur very often. Can you say maybe twice in the past 10 years of draws?
An event that NEVER occurred according to my records was for a seventh straight draw 3 even and 2 odd white balls being picked again. So it was a good bet statistically speaking to throw out any number picks that contained that spread. Sure enough for the first time since in nearly a decade and over 900 drawings the numbers were once again - 3 even and 2 odd. So that threw our picks way out of whack. The closest we got was getting 2 white balls correct on one pick - not enough to bring home any dough.
The powerball was off statistically too. Number 2 was picked and it was the third time in the past 55 drawings - chances are only about 1 in 4 of that happening - so to narrow the pool of 42 to choose from we threw that one out as well.
Banked balances are up to date as of the next anticipated drawing on October 31st.
No jackpot winners for tonight! If the same happens Saturday we'll be back in for the Wednesday draw.

Let's Go For Our 9th Straight Winning Night!
The jackpot continues to be reset and we haven't participated in almost a month so we're going to go ahead and jump back in next Wednesday, the 24th in the drawing. There's a total of 3 Wednesday's over the break from school that we'll participate in.
Please tender $6 or $15 before tomorrow (Oct.17th) if you plan to participate with us - or make sure that your banked balance reflects one of those two levels.
We also have $100 in the pool piggy bank that we'll continue to use to give us a few more picks each session. I will keep those extra picks at low additions and reserve the remainder until the jackpot does climb to more lucrative levels.
We'll be aiming for our 9th straight winning night as a pool - a record in our history. Perhaps before the year's over we'll also eclipse our 2006 total earnings of $748. We're about $300 away from doing that - so that's a tall order before this year is out. Cross your fingers!
