Hi All,
Ontario 49 looking like my game tonite with 6/49 only at $3.5M.
Such a good deal the Ontario 49 - almost like a well-kept secret.
I've posted my groupings (Col#1 cold, Col#2 played once, Col#3 played-more-than-once). They are pasted below.
Since 2 repeats played last draw, I'm going to skip playing repeats altogether this time. Since Col#1 is the same length as Col#2, I'm taking 3 from each....but I'm going to play some lines with 4 numbers from col#1.
In fact I feel that it's a good draw for me to play a few combination tickets and go for the 4 out of 6 prize. What I do sometimes when the cold column is this long, is I take col#1 and wheel it into sets of 7 and play the combination 7 tickets at $3.5 each... or I might just pick 5 cold numbers, not necessarily the coldest, and play a combination 5 for $22.
Did you know that with the combination 5 ticket if you match 3 numbers on your ticket you get 41x$5=$205 plus 3x$50=$150... for a total of $355 for matching 3 numbers. If you match 4 numbers on your combination 5 ticket you get 42X$50=$2100 and 2X$500=$1000, total of $3100. I've played it a few times in the past and only hit 2/5
.
So many more odd numbers have played the last 2 draws that I'm going to play 4 even and 2 odds or 3 even and 3 odds.
I will look at the frequency of the number using OLGC's frequency chart. I look for frequently played numbers that are cold.
I may play 34 even though it is not a frequently played number because I'm playing it on my 6/49 tickets and I find that sometimes if I check the 'play both' box I get something.
Have you ever painstakingly selected numbers for 6/49 only to see them get drawn in the Ontario 49?....wow is that ever annoying
. I often thought of playing the same set of numbers for 6/49, Ontario 49, Lottario, Keno all on the same night...never tried it yet though but maybe it's not such a crazy idea. 
Anyhoo, here's my 'groupings' of numbers pasted below, I hope they help you out!
Good Luck
