Stupid people not understanding the phase space.
As I'm sure Lugsy knows, If the chances of 1,2,3,4,5,6 coming up are 14,000,000,000/1
the chances of those numbers coming in three weeks later are still 14,000,000,000/1
you can put false phase spaces on by saying what are the chances of the same six numbers coming out in reverse order, within a month, blah, blah.
Doesn't change the fact the true odds are 14,000,000,000/1
If you draw a lottery in a hundred countries several times a week, what are the chances that none of them will ever repeat the same numbers.
Pretty close to zero I'd say.

i think you're a little bit out on those odds pokerpete.
i'm sure it's more like 14 million than 14 billion.

Saying it's trillions is absolute codshit as stated before, as it implies that the original set of numbers had some sort of significance.
it's 6/49 x 5/48 etc.

I don't know the odds of winning the Israeli lottery.
I know ours is 14M/1
the points was about chance having no memory, as you well know.

I di put too many zeros in but not because I don't know the difference between millions and billions,.
I've been dealing in billions at work so I wasn't really thinking clearly
