QUESTION: Long time :)–I have a question for you that I’ve been meaning to ask for months after reviewing the weekly reports. I can see that they’re getting 29 or more hits weekly, but when you consider playing, the playing straight cost is very expensive. Playing boxed for all states would also be very expensive, and the winnings would be low compared to a straight hit. Then, I thought maybe you could just play doubles boxed or straight, but even that is very expensive. What are your thoughts on this? Is your focus to only select 3-4 states and play those 24 numbers straight or boxed?

ANSWER: I include an Excel spreadsheet with the Pick 4 report for a reason. Look at the SORTED page to see which states are getting the most hits. ONLY PLAY THESE STATES. OR, track the states to see which (of the top 15 states) are due for a hit. Either way, you should NOT be playing all the states; only the top 10 or the due states.
