This is why I said doubles mirage - last time was July 9th so they were due July 12th or 13thmirage said:An observation. I'm sure I'm not alone in noticing this and/or this has been said before on this board (haven't checked) but Pick 3 doubles have a tendency to hit within at least a few days of each other.
I've just briefly looked at winning #s so far this year - I think I counted 44 doubles hitting so far. Of these, I think I counted 32 doubles which hit either the next day after a double previously hit or only 2 days after. I don't know what the statistical average should be, but we might be overdue for more doubles, maybe today or the next day.![]()
Looks like the candidates might come from the numbers from the previous 2 draws which could be as many as 6 numbers.Beaker said:This is why I said doubles mirage - last time was July 9th so they were due July 12th or 13th![]()
Question is which ones?Looks like the candidates might come from the numbers from the previous 2 draws which could be as many as 6 numbers.

mirage said:(In Valley Girl speak) I thought, like, ...2 numbers that are the same in a draw, are like, .... dubbles??
So isn't a repeat double like a double double?

Yes, that is the way I am using it.mirage said:Well you were close with your 404 if boxed of the other day...
Also can we clarify something? When I read the word "doubles" in this thread, I assumed meant double digits in a number drawn.
And also its not uncommon for double digits to come in clusters of perhaps 3. As in hitting twice (or more) within days of 3 or less and then hitting immediately again. Some months this year have been fairly infested with doubles (digits) and they are difficult to call. Maybe you don't agree but that's my observation.

This 'clustering' definitely happens in Ontario. We are in one right now. After tonite, we should see another double within 3 draws.mirage said:223 - another double![]()
Well at least you got close again Beaker.

Just a quick glance - this clustering seems to happen. Double-double doesn't happen that often
Have to write a quick program to check those stats.
Beaker, if you have the time and it's not too much trouble, could you make some comment about what you found with the (clustering?) stats? Thanks.![]()
