How the Abbreviated Wheel strategy works

Spreads a pool of 10 numbers across several lines with a coverage rule.

The exact rule

  1. Take the 10 most frequent numbers over the last 50 draws as the pool.
  2. Build the fewest lines so that if 4 winning numbers are in the pool, one line holds at least 3 of them.
  3. The first line is shown as the pick; every line is listed.

What it can't do: The coverage rule only applies if the winning numbers are in the pool. More lines cost more, and each line keeps exactly the same odds.
