Watch for combinations that go in sequence.
17,18,19
67,68,69
Usually the sequence will be 3 numbers, however, there are times when it does go beyond the total of three numbers, but rarely does it go beyond 5 numbers.
20,21,22,23,24,25 etc..
So try not to play sick sequences unless you have the money to throw away.

Play your numbers, but also try to maximize your winnings...by playing the following way:
Your picks are 20,21,22,23,24,25,26
Play 2 number, 3 and 4 of those numbers above on a ticket.
i.e.
Ticket 1:20,21
Ticket 2:22,23
Ticket 3:24,25
Ticket 4:20,21,22

Ticket 5:22,23,24
Ticket 6:24,25,26
Ticket 7:20,21,22,23
Ticket 8:22,23,24,25

Ticket 9:24,25,26,27

This way if you are correct, you could possibly win on all of your choices!

Keep track of the numbers you pick and the ones that came up. See if you are in the same ball park. If not, try a different system. Don't think that if you were to play 67,68,69 everyday, eventually it will come up. Yes it will, but by that time, you would have spent more than you would have made. The object of the game here is to make money, not throw it away.

Get out your excel spreadsheet and start keeping track of the winning numbers. And see if there is a pattern you can guess at, for the next draw. If a lot of 1-10 numbers are coming up, play them till they no longer come up. If 30's have not been showing lately, play the trend and do not play them!!! Only play the numbers that are looking good.

There is a frequency chart that you can print out showing the most frequently draw numbers. Well, if you were to compare which numbers were draw from the last draw, you will notice that the numbers come from all over the chart... from top to bottom. The top 10 numbers are the most frequently drawn numbers, but does not mean they will be more than likely to come up. In fact the numbers that do come up, come from all over the listing. From the middle and bottom middle sections.

Study the numbers to win. No use trying to guess at it blindly. If you have a 14 million to one chance that you will win, then trying to guess blindly at something like this increases those odds of winning astronomically.

Between draws, there are a lot of numbers that repeat. Do play a lot of repeats. There are times when numbers repeat 5 draws in a row. So, if you see a number has repeated from last draw already, play that number again, 'cause it just might repeat again, and after-all, if it does repeat again, that's one "for sure" pick you have.

Don't underestimate the power of the quick pick. Sometimes the computer picks are better than your quesses. Did you know that you can fill in the quick pick box, then on the left of the numbers, fill in the amount of numbers you want the quick pick to choose, and fill in the dollar amount to wager. You do not have to play a 10 number quick pick. It's better trying to win on a 3 to 4 number quick pick. At $2, 4 numbers wins $200!!!

thank you for some of you guys ideas. One thing i learned about keno is the same numbers appear every week. so what i thought was a good idea was to get some bingo cards to guide me on playing keno. I have noticed with the cards you always will get 8 or 9 numbers right you just have to know which ones. with the right kind of software the cards will guide you into a nice profit.
The cards only cost $5.00 dollars and you only get 14 cards so you are not dealing with 100 cards and confusion. I have not hit anything yet but i am trying to find a system that works, so far none but i thought maybe someone could find the cards useful and share the info. Or show me how to use them to make a profit.

I was wondering why use bingo cards? I use MS Excel myself.

You can put the numbers in in many different ways... horizontally, vertically, and highlight certain numbers using their color schemes.

You can also copy the numbers from sites like [URL=Sympatico Lotto Ontario Daily Kino Results]http://lottery.sympatico.msn.ca/cgi-bin/english?job=show_results&lottery=on_daily_keno[/URL] .
Just hightlight the text including the date and paste it into notepad. Save the text using whatevername.txt

Now open Excel, and use the OPEN command and select opening a text file. Select your whatevername.txt file and press open.... now a Text Import Wizard box opens, select DELIMITED, and click next. Now select the SPACE option and click finish. Now each of the columns of numbers will be seperate from the other.

This is a lot easier to manipulate and copy or color individual boxes that represent their specific number. Now go back to the Sympatico site and do that for whatever month and year you want. Comparing is so much easier.

But I would be interested in seeing if you have any new ideas using the bingo cards. It sounds as if you are using a 'shape' kinda way to see the numbers. It might just work!!!
