A simple lottery thread that might go above usual lottery ideas..…

It seems lottery numbers are in a totally closed universe…. any filter decreases chances for a win, and any additional filters decreases them further….Ever heard about any two filters joined together increase probability compared to if used alone?
For example, if 3 even and 3 odd numbers were used, is there anything else can be tied in order to lower further number of lines, but for sure not lowering the chances for a win if any 3 even and any 3 odd are drawn?

It was a bit clumsy example, must admit…but, ever heard about ANY two filters joined together mathematically increase or at least for sure not further lower probability, compared to if used alone?

Don't you know that the probability of wining is proportional to the number of lines played and all the filter theory is nothing but smoke screen?

Well, we all know….but I was hopping some master math mind might jump in and point to something like a …tiny probability theory imperfection regarding lottery, using some Pi’s and such…

And I imagined about that smoke screen expression of yours...
every while somebody might get one of those 3/6 cuties...thinking " wow, just 3 more and that's it"...

But, unfortunately there are something like C(6,3)*C(43,3)=246,820 of these cuties available in every single draw....and just one JP...either is a glass half full or half empty.
