Some people have ask me to include a little of local content pertaining to the entertainment and lifestyles of Malaysians. Well the wide popularity of lottery games has been common subject among locals besides cinema, pubs, shopping and travel. Here is an article on how to play the 4D game as a past time.

Let's look at how to analyse datas and study its forms and patterns for playing the Numbers game.

First and foremost we must have sufficient datas collected in order to be able to put it on a spreadsheet.

How much data are we talking about ? Quite alot !

In a typical game of Magnum 4D ( or Pick 4 ) , we need at least 3 to 4 years of results. I found out from my own programs, this much information is required to put through my programs to yield some patterns or forms.

I compute and analyse these data for periods of 1 week, 3 weeks, 2 months, 8 months and18 months. Different patterns emerged for these 5 "break points". Usually it surfaced a repetition in any one of these periods. We use the 3 to 4 years data to "test proof" the outcome of the patterns. If the same occurs in these 3 or 4 years , then we can safely play along this formation and disregard others.

How to gather these infos and put it on paper?

Open up a spreadsheet such as Excel and fill all the 4 years data in it vertically in the first column as shown.

It goes on for the 4 years data. My horizontal (i.e. x-axis) shown has indicated only 11 entry patterns. My own spreadsheet has much more including line sums, doubles, triples, quads, last 2 digits pattern, last 3 digits patterns, etc, etc. You need not go too deep into all possibilities at this stage. If you are a programmer then this is the break to start writing "routines and sub-routines" to check for frequency.

For starters, just concentrate on 2even2odd, 2big2small, twins and doubles. These has the highest occurrence. Its pattern normally surfaced for periods of 2 months, 8 months and 18 months. If any of these pattern holds true for the periods I just mentioned, then it is wise to play along this path. There will be other patterns starting to appear.

I won't go into the mathematics of the game. Just remember buying a single 4-digit number out of 10,000 possible ones are not much of a hope. But betting on a 4-digit number from a pattern (with much reduced numbers) with a good chance of "re-appearing" again is a safer bet.

This logical approach is how my programs are based upon. It will also calculate the "percentage probability" of the "grouping" or "pattern" it computes. When a very high probability ( usually 82% to 94% ) occurs in whatever patterns or forms it presents to me, then I may consider putting a wager on it. In other words, I only play when my program tells me to. It also calculates the number of times a number has had a "hit" for 3 years, 5 years or 10 years. ( I have records for 20 years of data for Magnum 4D) ; or whether its a "Hot" or "Cold" number.

There are many other ways a favourite pattern or number shows itself. There are "series" groupings; playing only 1-digit, 2-digit or 3-digits for Magnum 4D (or Pick4). The latter is my favourite method because I only have to bet or guess 1 or 2 digits correct in a 4-digit Magnum game to win ! I call this method " Netting a Winner". It is alot of fun and I have netted winning numbers many times.

Another method is the "Brooding". It is another favourite of mine because I have fine-tuned this program many times. This was my first program and I still uses it alot when other patterns fail to come up with some good numbers for me. Incubation period is usually within 4 to 6 draws.
