Cold numbers give a return on investment!
Continuing on with the silly experiment I am doing by picking “hot” and “cold” numbers in the MegaMillions drawing. Had a few more numbers hit on Friday:
| Number Set | 8/16 | 8/19 | 8/23 | 8/27 |
| Family Numbers | No matches | No Matches | No Matches | Two Matches |
| “Hot” Numbers (=>3x in last 20 draws) | No matches | No Matches | No Matches | One Match |
| “Cold” Numbers (=1x in last 50 draws) | One match | No Matches | No Matches | Two Matches |
| Quick Pick | No matches | One match | No Matches | No Matches |
Cold numbers are still ahead after four drawings but not a material difference in my mind. This drawing did make some money back! One of the “Cold” number matches is the Megaball, so we have won 10% of the $40 investment in the 5 draws.
Final draw is Tuesday night. Read about the previous drawings here: Drawing 1 | Drawing 2 & 3.
