Can a lottery cheat using balls and machines?
Yes, they could but I don’t think Texas does. Is the Quick Pick selection random? No, I don’t think it is. It is my educated opinion that’s it’s pseudo-random. I recently asked Bobby Heith (communications) if G-Tech’s software was RNG or pRNG and if the software was “certified.” His first response was that he was forwarding my question to open records. He called about 2 weeks later and said that open records told him to tell me to call G-Tech with that question. I asked him to reply in writing but he has apparently refused. Open records did not respond either. Also, I recently suggested to the Commissioners that Dr. Eubanks review the Quick Pick combinations sold for past drawings to see if he thinks their random. I tried to obtain the combinations sold for some draws but the TLC “claimed” they didn’t have it. The reason I say “claimed” is because I know that we have 6 months to claim a ticket therefore, the combinations are still in the computer. They could have copied the combination
