Nevada Moving Towards A Lottery

A Lottery System that Works? Or Just Plain Luck? A Strange Story in Colorado

In my Internet meanderings, I came across a report from a Colorado TV station (channel 9) about a repeat winner who claims to play a winning system. Now, we all know that systems don’t work.
