There are millions of Pick 3 and Pick 4 Lottery players in the United States and Canada. They play these two lottery games because they can win with them. The Pick 3 Lottery has odds of 1,000 to 1 to capture a Straight Win. The Pick 4 Lottery with that added digit has odds of 10,000 to 1.

Compared to the highly advertised Mega Millions, Powerball, and State Lotteries with their very enticing multimillion dollar jackpots and หวยงวดนี้ odds ranging from 125 million to 1 to 195 million to 1 that very few people can win without some major help from Lady Luck, Pick 3 and Pick 4 lotteries are the choice of all these smart lottery players.

Their relatively small comparative jackpots of $500 for the Pick 3 Lottery and $5000 for the Pick 4 Lottery with the same $1 investment can keep players playing and having fun at the same time. These millions of lottery players play their chosen numbers each day, and then go off to their daily routines of work, family responsibilities, and leisure time activities before retiring for their nightly slumber.

The following morning they begin their day by openning up the USA Today or local newspaper in hopes of starting their day reading that their chosen Pick 3 or Pick 4 numbers made them a winner overnight. There is a certain thrill when a lottery player begins his/her day proclaiming one’s self to all the world as “a winner”.

A winner is a winner is a winner

This is not to overlook the fact they are slightly richer than the day before by $500 or $5000 with a Straight Win respectively. Even a smaller Box Win ranging from $40 to $600 can provide the same kind of thrill. A winner is a winner is a winner. And it is always fun deciding what to do with this new extra free money when the players cash their winning tickets.

But as players run their fingers down the list of winning Pick 3 and Pick 4 results from the different State and Provincial Lotteries in the USA Today newspaper or their local newspaper, they make an amazing discovery about some of these winning lottery numbers.

Both the Pick 3 and Pick 4 Lotteries have drawn the same three or four digits. They may not be in the same order, but sometimes they are. Sometimes they appear on the same day and sometimes they appear the next day or even a few days later.

On May 1, 2011 Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont Pick 3 lotteries drew 353 in the Tri-State midday drawing. On the following day the midday drawing in the New Jersey Pick 3 drew the same Pick 3 number, 353. May 2, 2011 also recorded the Tennessee Cash 3 midday drawing of 353. Later that day, in the evening drawing of the California Daily 3 on May 2, 2011 335 was the winning Pick 3 number.

The 274 began as back to back winners repeating itself in both the midday and evening drawings on May 10, 2011 in the South Carolina Pick 3 Lottery. On May 12, 2011 Virginia Pick 3 drew 742. Minnesota Pick 3, in their evening drawing that same day drew 247. In the single draw States with only evening drawings, the next day, May 13, 2011 Washington State Daily Game Lottery drew 274, and on May 14, 2011 the Kansas Pick 3 Lottery drew 472.

These are known as “traveling numbers”. Some Pick 3 and Pick 4 players are not aware of their existence. Some players had seen these occurrences, but didn’t know what to make of them or what to call it. Pick 3 and/or Pick 4 numbers that contain the same digits and are drawn and redrawn in different State or Provincial Lotteries over a short period of time are known as “traveling numbers”.

The Indiana Daily 4 midday drawn number was 8926.

Pick 4 players find similar occurrences as they looked for their winning numbers. On May 8, 2011 the Michigan Daily 4 evening number was 8269. The next day on May 9, 2011 the Indiana Daily 4 midday drawn number was 8926. These Pick 4 digits put their traveling shoes on again, and on May 12, 2011 in the evening drawing arrived in the Maryland Pick 4 Lottery as 2869. The next day, May 13, 2011 these four digits appeared in the New Jersey Pick 4 midday drawing as 8629 before returning to the Michigan Daily 4 that same evening as 9286.

The neighboring Pick 4 number, 3968, started its travels on May 10, 2011 in the Michigan Daily 4 in the evening drawing. On May 12, 2011 in the Ohio Pick 4 Lottery midday drawing it appeared as 8963. On May 15, 2011 in the midday drawing in the Virginia Pick 4 it was drawn as 8639. Later that same evening in the Delaware Play 4 it came in as 3986.

Just as players see above, these traveling numbers like to visit neighboring States. In the Illinois and Iowa Pick 4 evening drawing on May 8, 2011 the 2798 was drawn. In the very next evening drawing on May 9, 2011 the Missouri Pick 4 Lottery drew the SAME PICK 4 NUMBER, 2798, in the EXACT SAME ORDER.
