Delta Selection
Start by choosing one very low number. Over 60% of the time, ONE is going to be at least one of the
winning delta numbers. So, if you feel good about it, make the number ONE your first choice. If you don't
pick ONE, choose another very low number like two or three.
STEP 2
Pick two more numbers between 1 and 8
EXAMPLE SEQUENCE: 1-4-7
STEP 3
For the fourth number, pick something pretty close to 8 ,either above or below it.
EXAMPLE SEQUENCE: 1-4-7-9
STEP 4
The last two numbers should probably be higher than 8 but not higher than 15. Less than half the time, a
winning number may have a delta higher than 15. Go ahead and make one of these numbers higher than
15 (but less than 25) if it feels right... but my advice is to mostly stick to numbers 15 and below, where the
odds of picking the right numbers are more favorable.
EXAMPLE SEQUENCE: 1-4-7-9-10-13
Consider all these rules to be general guidelines. You can certainly bend them. Picking lotto
numbers is not an exact science!
STEP 5
What's the highest number allowed in your lotto game? Add up all the delta numbers you picked and
make sure its not higher than this number. If this sum is within about FIFTEEN of the highest number, it
has the best chance of being a winner. Go ahead and change some of the numbers if you need to to
make the sum come out right. Remember, its OK to have numbers repeat in your sequence.
STEP 6
Since the deltas are not usually in ascending order, randomly mix up the digits you picked.
EXAMPLE SEQUENCE: 7-1-10-4-13-9
STEP 7
Perform the addition sequence below to discover the actual lotto number you'll be playing. HINT: pay
attention to when we say LOTTO number and DELTA number
