[QUOTE="Leinster Fan, post: 1011891, member: 76349"] I'll be that guy and find the actual answer, (5×4×3×2×1)÷(50×49×48×47×46×20) is one in 42 million or so for that exact set of numbers. But that's true for every lottery draw they'd do, every outcome has that chance and one has to come out. But the the actual question is the chances of getting a sequence like the one they did, which is 15 times that, because there are 15 possible different sequences. So the real answer (the chance of getting a sequence like thay one) is roughly 1 in 2.8 million on sny given day. Doubt it's a fix, surely if you were trying to rig the lottery you'd try to be a bit more subtle than that. [/QUOTE]
