Hello All,

Just getting back into the lotto.

I am after a Open wheel lotto program so I can create wheels with 80 to 90% cover.

At the same time this program must be able to create a wheel that removes any combinations that has 4 or more numbers in common as any previous draw while maintaining the credibility of the wheel. If anyone knows of such a program please point me in the right direction.

Thank you,

Irvin

Try using CoverMaster, to create your wheel. (Personally I like tight abbreviated wheels using static or fixed numbers used with moderate filtering). Copies are available around on the web for free. Once you create the wheel you want, code up a filtering program to rip out the combinations you don't require. You can always specifiy the program you want built and then go to a website where programmers will bid on your on projects. Usually you get a decent program built for pretty cheap. But you have to be specfic of what you want and don't give them the notion it is for a lottery or you will get bent over a barrel for a cost.

Thanks for that. CoverMaster is fantastic. I use it all the time to check wheels etc. But it is not up to scratch when you want to filter lines while keeping close to the 80 to 90% guarantee.

The closest I can see that would do it is Lotto Architect. Just in the process of reading the info at their LA website.

Cheers,

Irvin

I agree CM is good for fast checking and testing.

What kind of game are you playing Pick 5, Pick 6 or Pick 7?
I assume you are looking for a full wheel generator, correct? with that kind of coverage. Have you tried "lotto director"? It is a full wheel generator and has some pretty powerful filtering capabilities, if you use it correctly. It will rip out numbers from previous draws, which is what you want.
I have the program, but don't use that particular filter, because you end up eroding a lot of the smaller tier prizes.

Otherwise you will need to do a little coding. .or farm a program to be built. If you really know what you want, it is sometimes better to have someone build it for you and the cost will be the same if you bought an off the shelf program from the web.

Are you using all the integers (0-49) and do you have any conditions for that kinda of coverage (i.e 4fi4, 5if5, 4if5).
If you are looking for guarrantees in balanced wheels, Gail Howard is the easiset way.

Good Luck
