This is what I would like to see for the best bet threads.
Post ONE sure fire number, your absoulute Best.
No birthdays etc. If you have a number you like , post in discussions, and lets talk about it there.
If you have one "SURE FIRE" pick and you have one other you would like to post, making it your BEST PAIR that would be fine.
I have been guilty of posting more than one.
I hope everyone agrees.
A few draws ago the best bet snagged 5 out of 12 posts,
lets keep it going.
Remember this should be a number that through your studies or however you come up with your numbers, it should be a number you have a strong conviction about.
DO NOT POST "FLUFF" numbers.
This defeats the purpose of this thread. Thank you all.
And if you agree with someone else's pick, say so.
This would give a clear consenses.

Peter!
That will be a very interesting set. If someone picks one different number, at the end, we'll get a set that has been got by the best effort from ourselves. Let's say that Peter posts 1 and Maggie posts 27 and now is my turn. My aim is to pick the best number from the remaining 47, whatever I think about 1 and 27. If these 2 numbers will not hit, I have more chances when choosing 1 from 47 than 1 in 49. Let's say I post 21. Next player will have a better chance to hit if 21 will not hit too.
In the meantime we'll use some different methods to pick a number and that seems good because rarely all 6 numbers have similar patherns. Of course the set must not be very large ; 12-14 numbers is a must for me. However if there are more than 12-14 numbers we can divide the set in two: first 12 and last 12 for example.
Question: where there will be more hits: in the first numbers of the set or in the last?
We may think that if the first numbers are picked by really experts, the most of draws they will hit well. But when they don't hit well, may be last numbers of the set have a good chance because they has been picked from a smaller amount .
Just thinking ...
