A little about lotteries

In numerical lotteries, a single simple combination is equally probable and is “a single indivisible entity.” In other words, in the space of a complete array, all elements (mentally imagine “cubes”) have the same size, therefore, there are no priority individual combinations. It is impossible to single out “universal combinations” in the entire array that will “always” play better than others, since the lottery machine or circulation generator is equally likely! What is most striking is that even many experienced players do not understand this.

Equal distribution played combinations -
simple proof #1

Let's move on to the most natural statistics in numerical lotteries - combinatorial. To do this, you need to translate all the winning combinations, for example, in the lottery 5 out of 36, into their serial number (index) in the full array. A scatter plot of the distribution of these combinations in the space of the full array can then be plotted, while respecting the interval and location in the circulation history. Each point on this graph represents a combination that actually played in the space of the full array. Since each individual combination is distributed equally likely throughout the entire array, we can divide this space into equal parts (sectors).

Let's divide the full array of 376992 combinations,
let's say - into 12 equal parts - sectors
- 31416 combinations.

All combinations that actually played on this moment in lottery 5 out of 36
(equiprobable distribution), selected sector - any

Let's count the number of matches of each sector over the last 500 draws.
On average, there will be approximately the same number of hits of a combination in any sector - 41 times.
The chance of any sector to match is 376,992/31416 = 1 time in 12 draws (average)
For 500 draws, any sector will play 500/ 12 = 41 times (average) or 4 times for 50 draws or 2 times for 25
If the combination plays in the selected sector, then the chance of the jackpot increases 12 times for one simple combination from this sector, and will be equal to 1 in 31416. If we have 10 combinations in the game, then 1 in 3141.

What is a single combination?

Let's see what a single combination is using the example of lottery 5 out of 36. There are 376,992 such combinations in this lottery. Each combination has its own serial number in the full array (index - cell).

First combination (000001) = 01-02-03-04-05 ...
Last combination (376992) = 32-33-34-35-36 = 376992 pieces

000001 _ 01-02-03-04-05
000002 _ 01-02-03-04-06
000003 _ 01-02-03-04-07
000004 _ 01-02-03-04-08
…….
…….
…….
002024 _ 01-02-07-11-30
002025 _ 01-02-07-11-31
002026 _ 01-02-07-11-32
…….
…….
174078 _ 04-21-25-32-34
174079 _ 04-21-25-32-35
…….
376992 _ 32-33-34-35-36

Absolutely any combination in the full array is no different from others in terms of the probability of a match.
To better understand this, you need to imagine 376,992 individual lottery balls, with all 376,992 combinations labeled.
It is difficult to imagine such a quantity, much less fit it into a picture; I will show only a few balls out of 376,992 pieces.

Let's do a thought experiment- let's place these balls in a huge lottery machine, which throws out only one ball with the combination indicated on this ball for each draw. We should not forget that after each draw, the dropped ball with the combination indicated on it is thrown back into the same lottery drum. Thus, on next edition all combinations will be in place again, and when the lottery machine starts, they will be mixed along with everyone else.

If it is difficult to imagine the option with balls, then let’s try to imagine a huge roulette wheel, where each ball cell represents a combination. There are 376,992 such cells, since such a lined wheel also cannot fit into the picture, so for a general understanding we will draw only a tiny part with combinations - we have highlighted the initial and final ones.

Take a closer look at the picture- the “wheel” is divided into equal cells (equally probable combinations), and the ball (draw generator) can fall into any hole (cell - index), no matter how we designated these cells (even with pictures). After the draw (spin), the wheel does not decrease - all cells remain in place.

• Note: I would like to draw your attention once again - I am writing about a whole simple single combination. For each individual combination (cell), the meaning of any even, odd, sums, intervals between numbers, repetitions, consecutive numbers, etc. is completely lost - since the combination is a single whole and denotes a cell (index) in the complete array, and their huge quantity.

We can only trace individual areas of the array (sectors, ranges, groups of numbers) for the upcoming games, therefore, we will increase our chances of Grand Prize(in separate editions) tens and even hundreds of times. Depends on which sector (array, range) we guess.

Equal distribution
combinations played - simple proof No. 2

Let's take an example of 24 numbers (lottery 6 out of 45), chosen at random.

Let's calculate the probability of complete and partial coincidence on real story circulations in a simplified manner (simple calculation, and quite accurate for a large number of circulations), then we use the special HYPERGEOMET function, which is present in Excel spreadsheets. Represents statistical function, which can be used to calculate the probability of a complete or partial match.

(click to enlarge)

2311 lottery draws 6-45 have been loaded.

1. One match showed in 128 draws
2311/128 = 1 to 18.1.
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 16.6.

2. Two matches showed in 472 circulations
2311/472 = 1 to 4.9
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 4.9

3. Three matches were shown in 754 circulations.
2311/754 = 1 to 3.1
HYPERGEOMET =1 to 3.02

4. Four matches were shown in 659 circulations.
2311/659 = 1 to 3.5
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 3.6

5. Five matches were shown in 249 circulations.
2311/249 = 1 to 9.3
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 9.12

6. Six matches were shown in 37 runs.
2311/37 = 1 to 62.5
HYPERGEOMET = 1 to 60.51

As you can see, the probability of complete and partial coincidence almost completely coincides with the calculated values. This means that the lottery generator produces combinations with equal probability. When generating or manually marking any markers, the values ​​will differ slightly, but they will be close to the theoretical ones. The more circulation history is loaded, the closer the result. Due to the fact that the circulation in the archive is catastrophically small, we use groups of numbers of sufficient length.

From the uniform (equiprobable) distribution, another conclusion follows: it doesn’t matter which numbers are included in the group of numbers - even, odd, top playing field or lower and so on. The only thing that matters is the number of numbers in the group, on which the probability directly depends. We look at the screenshot - 18 numbers of markers are marked - random, top, even.

(click to enlarge)

There are no significant differences in the intensity of the coincidence of 5 numbers.
In other words, the circulation generator pays attention to any marked markers evenly, no matter what you “draw” on the playing field. Sometimes they “advise” to play with so-called “pieces” - this will not change anything in terms of the probability of a match - any “piece” will play with the same frequency as a “non-piece”...

Now we know for sure - any marked group of numbers, in equal numbers, has the same probability of coincidence. Why? Because it is made up of equally probable simple combinations. In this case, how can we even understand which group may be more likely to play in the coming games?

Strategic combination generators for numerical lotteries

When you realize that a particular combination is equally likely,
then some people have complete confusion - regarding common statistics :)

For example, why “even-odd” is played in the “majority” in a certain proportion, or why “sum” plays in the middle range and more. It turns out that the combinations seem to be not equally probable? This question is easy to answer, precisely after fully realizing that a single combination is equally probable. So why do combinations seem to “like to play” in certain proportions, ranges, amounts - if they are equally probable?

• Because we “select” arrays of equally probable single combinations with this information. It is important to know here how many combinations obtained in dedicated sectors. Arrays of combinations, highlighted with statistical information - contain different quantities equally probable combinations, therefore, these arrays have different probability for a coincidence.

Let's look at the example of statistics
even, odd numbers

• Let's try to understand one of the popular tips when choosing a combination:
  choose combinations that contain an equal number of even and odd numbers

Let's figure out why this happens. In lottery 5 out of 36, the most common odds and evens will look like this: 2 even – 3 odd, or 3 even – 2 odd. We count the number (even - odd) of all possible combinations in the lottery 5 out of 36

To better understand why a lottery machine or circulation generator random numbers tries to throw out such combinations of numbers in combinations, let us turn for clarity to the roulette wheel, which is nothing more than an equally probable random number generator, unless, of course, it is skewed

Let's distribute all combinations according to the even-odd criterion together, and according to the table,
Let's draw a circular graph - imagine that these are marked sectors on a roulette wheel

Mentally add the largest sectors that contain 124848 combinations together = 124848 pieces (2 even - 3 odd) + 124848 pieces (3 odd - 2 even) = 249696 combinations out of 376992 possible, or 66.23%, or the chance of these two sectors is 376992/ 249696 = 1 to 1.5 for each spin (draw) or approximately 33 numbers out of 36.

That is why, with each test (roulette spin) of a lottery machine or draw generator, combinations from this sector will tend, in most cases, to play in an odds ratio of 2-3 or 3-2.

• In this example it plays not a separate combination– here a dedicated “huge sector” with combinations plays, in other words, we have marked approximately 33 numbers out of 36, naturally, almost always this number of numbers will “catch” all the prize money!

Why parity in combinations like 2-3 or 3-2? It's all about costs decimal system, which encodes the whole combination. Each individual whole (complete) combination simply represents a cell of 376,992 pieces. Recall the thought experiment with balls, in which the combination is indicated as a whole, or an example with a roulette wheel, where each combination simply designates a cell and is indivisible. But how we select the array of combinations does not matter. It’s just convenient to follow these signs (even-odd) for part of the array - the sector.

If we generate any random combinations for the same number of combinations (2,469,696 pieces), regardless of these proportions in general, then nothing will change in terms of the probability of matching the resulting array (sector) (1 to 1.5). Any equally probable random combination generator will seem to follow this advice on its own (without any filters) - What’s interesting is that no one specifically programs it this way, putting instructions (algorithm) into it to produce exactly these combinations of numbers.

Don't believe me? Check it out for yourself!

1. Review the draw history - most odd-even combinations will be 2-3, 3-2 (5 out of 36) and 3-3 (6 out of 45).
2. Take any random number generator, combinations - generate and write down the resulting combinations, then check.

Conclusion:

• Most likely, such advice is addressed to those who manually fill out tickets, without any software, even a simple random combination generator will follow this advice on its own.
• This advice is of little use to us, since the sector contains two-thirds of all combinations - not in roulette, because we play for dozens, where the chance is 1 in 3.
• This advice is suitable for lotteries that take place very rarely, although it will not help much.
• It is more correct to try to guess sectors 1-4, 4-1, and with fairly frequent circulations 5-0, 0-5 (we are waiting for the average period)

The first draw of Sportloto took place on October 20, 1970, in the Central House of Journalists. The format was based on the game keno, one of the world's oldest numerical lotteries. The Soviet version used the “6 out of 49” formula. The game immediately became popular; 1.5 million tickets were sold for the first edition, and within a week. This is all the more surprising since only Muscovites took part in the first draw; other cities joined the game gradually. Subsequently, each drawing accounted for up to 10 million tickets.

Membership circulation commission decided to invite famous athletes, later it became a tradition. In the first draw, the drawing was followed by the famous football and hockey player Vsevolod Bobrov, commentator Nikolai Ozerov and his colleague Nina Eremina, a former basketball player.

The winner of the first drawing was engineer-economist from Moscow Lidia Morozova, who received the main prize - 5,000 rubles. For the country average salary which at that time did not exceed 200 rubles, the amount was truly gigantic. You could use your winnings to buy a new Moskvich car.

Subsequent circulations were carried out through. At that time, they resembled the draws of a cash and clothing lottery: members of the commission spun a transparent drum and with their hands took out balls with winning numbers. At first, tickets were sold in Moscow, the second city, in February, became Baku

In 1971, the distribution network expanded: in March Yerevan was added, then (we indicate in the same order as we connected) - Odessa. Lvov, Kyiv, Tallinn, Zaporozhye, Sverdlovsk, Rostov-on-Don and Leningrad.

In the first 12 months, 70 million Sportloto cards were sold; participants received winnings worth 10,265,670 rubles - half the amount received from the sale of lottery tickets. The first year brought many big wins. Despite the fact that 5,000 rubles were paid for the correct six (very big money at that time), almost 10 people.

Also, in the first year it was possible to create 17 zonal Sportloto departments, and by the end of 1973 it was planned to cover all regions of the country

"Sportloto-2"

On October 20, 1973, a second game appeared - Sportloto-2, the circulation of which took place after the main one. The “Sportloto-2” card cost 60 kopecks, since it took part in two draws held on the same day, thereby increasing the chances of winning. And drawings began to be carried out using a lottery machine, which was designed and built Chief Engineer Väino Paasik and mechanic Kalju Turja from the SKB Academy of Sciences of the Estonian SSR. The device they created mechanically mixed and automatically extracted the winning balls.

On January 10, 1974, draws of the Sportloto lotteries began to be held in Moscow, at the studio Central television and broadcast on the first program and the Vostok and Orbita systems, and millions of lottery fans got the opportunity to watch the draws on TV. As musical accompaniment Gershon Kingsley’s melody “Puffed Corn” was used, performed by an ensemble led by Meshcherin.

Sportloto 5 of 36

On August 14, 1976, the first draw of a new sports-numbers lottery with the formula “5 out of 36”, called “Saturday Sports Lotto,” took place. The cards of this lottery took part in a draw that consisted of two drawings held weekly on Saturdays.

Announcement of lottery 5 out of 36 (first name “Saturday Sportloto”) in the newspaper “Soviet Sport”

New circulation devices were put into operation - pneumotrons, in which the mixing of balls was carried out by a jet of compressed air. “Saturday Sports Lotto” was intended to finance the XXIII Summer olympic games in Moscow in 1980. 36 Olympic sports were assigned conditional sport numbers.

Additional ball and other innovations

In 1977, (from the 37th draw), in order to increase the popularity of the “6 out of 49” lottery, an additional bonus ball was played in it, which increased the probability of winning the lottery. In August 1978, all numerical lotteries were transferred to non-draw cards. The maximum winning amount was increased from 5,000 to 10,000 rubles. Draws of the “6 out of 49” and “5 out of 36” lotteries (formerly “Saturday Sports Lotto”) began to be held every Saturday, the drawing was carried out using a pneumatic machine.

In January 1981, another change in the conditions of the game took place, the purpose of which was to make it more exciting and offer participants more options for filling out tickets. The Sportloto draw began to be carried out not from four, but from two draws - one for “6 out of 49”, the other for “5 out of 36”. The ticket itself has also changed; another field has been added so that you can participate in two options (combinations)

“Sportloto” form 5 out of 36, for 2 options

Taking into account the numerous wishes of the players who asked to return to the previous mechanical method of mixing balls, the circulation machines were replaced on January 1, 1982. Draws began to be carried out on two new lottery machines producing simultaneous extraction five or six balls with winning numbers. In January 1985, they were improved, and they began to remove the balls not all together, but one by one.
