Did I say I won 6000 Baht?

Did I quote you! It was in regards to the article.

The so called law of averages, often known as the "gambler's fallacy", is a false belief.  It is deduced from the law of large numbers.  The law of averages is a false idea that probability occurs with a small number of consecutive experiments so they will certainly have to be accepted as normal, i.e. average, sooner rather than later.

 

However, probability theory is the formula of absolute probability is a basic statute relating marginal probabilities to conditional probabilities.  It expresses the total probability of an outcome which can be realised by way of several events—hence the name.  In psychological statistics, we use it to calculate the likelihood that an event will occur, and is expressed as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes in the set of outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.

Mistakes happen.  You should have bought the other number, 81, sorry that should be 18.

Again drivel and rubbish and you trying to defend the actions shows what type of person you are.

Hokus Pokus claptrap by incentive people who believe in anything.

Sounds like there could be a few underground lottery folk from Ban Chang running for the hills........

Loosen up, laughing gravy - what a joke that is, you must be the life of any party you attend. As for what type of person I am you wouldn't have a clue. 

I bought two '58' tickets and won 4,000 baht. Go figure!

So, what were the large sums?  If it’s anything comparable to the police fines, it’s probably exaggerated

Many people were unable to buy 58 because it was 'not available '. Funny old thing and the winning number was 58. Is this lucky numbers game fixed , I ask ?

OMG, I bought 85!

So did my broke bil because 58 was sold out, ฿500 down the drain.

I really can't understand the fascination with the 2 digit lottery.

The underground lottery in the village I'm currently staying in pays 65/1.

Given that the real odds are 99/1 there are only two real winners; the organisers and the police they pay-off!

The attraction is very easy to understand when you consider that you are in a country where staff in shops use a calculator to work out the change from 100B for a 62B purchase, and don't understand why a customer would give them 102B for such a purchase.

Add to that the lure of easy money and you have understood everything.

Now she spends many hours online listening to 'prophets' spouting garbage about numbers and how to win, and also has taken to filling up copious pages of a notebook with potential winning numbers.

How many UK ex pats remember Radio Luxembourg and Horace Batchelor from Keynsham, "spelt K-E-Y-N-S-H-A-M" with his famous "infallible" Pools prediction system! I always wondered why he just didn't use it himself and make millions instead of selling his "infallible" system to others. What a fake. So Thai people aren't the only gullible people in the world, although that was nearly 60 years ago. :-)

My wife and M-i-L both prayed to a golden eel  that F-in-L caught for inspiration in the lottery. Five wins in all over 3 months! They just netted it once a month and the shape of the eel's body would look like a number, do two times and you have the winner ...... SO superstition works.

No, there is no need at all for any rethinking. The only thing that needs to be added to the two words in "lucky" to make the expression complete.

But very unlucky for the suckers who "produce" the numbers.
