MaxHit, HiLotto, and LoLotto are no longer available as separate programs.
They are now part of "MaxHitPro", a lottery suite for Lotto, Daily, and Keno
games. Following is some brief descriptions from the help file :-

MaxHitPro is a complete tracking and prediction program for Lotto, Daily, and
Keno games. It is distributed FREE AND FULLY FUNCTIONAL, with an option to
add extra systems.

It uses, what I consider to be, the only logically correct approach for
playing these types of games, and users have backed this up by throwing out
much more expensive programs that they've been using for ten years or more.
It is logically correct because it is based on testing hundreds, or even
thousands, of systems on past draws, and only the top 10 are considered for
the next draw. You choose one (or more) of these systems to bet with.

All testing is done in real time, meaning that the resulting graphs will
show what you REALLY would have won in the past. In other words, you can
track a system without actually spending any money: a graph showing 20 past
results is actually showing 20 REAL results, whether you spent any money or
not. This is incredibly important because it shows you the true qualities of
a system: if it looks good, it was good. The same system is used on the next
(still to be published) draw.

Not only can you use the graphs to see real results from the past, but you
can also examine the bet lists that were used, and the individual results
for each bet. You can use one of these bet lists on the next draw.

You can even use the predicted numbers from another program (or from your own
personal experience) and use them in MaxHitPro. Entering these numbers will
force every system to use them in their bet list: if you have a very strong
feeling for a number, then you can also have it included in every bet. The
graphs will show how this would have worked out in the past, and the bet
list for the next (still to be published) draw will also include these
numbers.

There is also an extra money-making opportunity built into MaxHitPro that you
can use free of charge: selling bet lists. Large bet lists can now be
generated (up to 1,000) and the program is set up to allow you to sell these
bets in groups of 10. If a 1,000 bet list contained a first prize, then
anyone who buys one group will have one chance in a hundred of winning it:
similarly, those who bought 10 groups will have one chance in 10: smaller
prizes will also be won, of course. These are unbelievably good odds and will be of great value to both seller and buyer.

You can sell these lists on your web page (providing it's legal, of course)
or to your friends and colleagues: you won't even be buying tickets, only
selling numbers. MaxHitPro can generate up to 10 of the best lists (much
more if you copy a game and use different Run conditions) and you can sell
as many as you want for a particular game. You can also sell lists for as
many games as you want so overall your earning capacity could be huge.

The original MaxHit program searched for systems that generated the highest
wins (a first prize) but this was often at the expense of predictability.
MaxHitPro, on the other hand, gives you a choice. You can set it for a Low,
Med, or High target and this will determine which systems are added to the
Top10 list. 'Low' will target low wins with good consistency; 'High' will
target high wins with poor consistency; a 'Med' target takes the middle
route. Note that starting from v1.00.03 "Max" has been added to the target
choice : this will target the highest possible wins and ignore consistancy
completely.

MaxHitPro can be used by anyone, regardless of their financial situation. The
original distribution contains a limited set of systems and can be used free
of charge. Extra sets of systems can then be added for a small fee.
Initially there will be one extra set of 3,000 systems, and future versions
will include up to four more sets (maximum 15,000 systems).

There is also a feature to update game histories from web pages : this can
save you a great deal of time and effort when you initially need to update
a game. Each game contains an internet address from which game histories can
be downloaded. The program will attempt to convert and add it to the game.

I honestly believe MaxHitPro is the only lottery program you will ever need.
It finds the systems with the best past record, without having to risk any
money; these past records will show what you can expect to win; you can
improve past records by experimenting; you'll be playing with the best
systems from thousands tested; you can add systems at your convenience, for
an incredibly low price; you can pool/sell multiple lists for any game; it
can be used on almost any Lotto, Daily, or Keno game in the world.

How can there be anything better than MaxHitPro?


                         $$$...USERS OPINION...$$$

...
 this is "one hell of a program" ... There is so much you can do with it
 and in so many different ways. If there ever was a reason for lotto players
 to throw away all their other lotto software, then this is it... REALLY,
 nothing else I have ever used, comes close to MaxHit, and now, with full
 Keno options, makes it even better... Any serious lotto player would not be
 without it

...
 This program you made is really facinating. I can't put it down.

...
 It's one of the best programs I have ever seen for the Pick3/Pick4 games!

...
 I am enjoying using the program very much, because it is the first program
 I have seen that shows a meaningful approach to predicting numbers!

...
 Maxhit is the only lotto program anyone ever needs. Ease of use and no
 pouring over mountains of stats for hour after hour. PLUS, Maxhit brings in
 the results more consistently than ANYTHING else I have ever used.

...
 Just recently registered Maxhit and am completely delighted with your
 program! I've been testing many of it's wonderful features and have spent
 many hour's enjoying calculating it's many options.

...
 you've got a super program working for you!

...
 MaxHit produces more wins than anything else I have used and without
 anywhere near the hassle or time involved.

...
 First off, id like to say that this look like the most promising app I've
 seen so far.

...
 It is "bar none", the easiest lotto software I have ever worked with. I
 think MaxHit is a realistic way to look at lotto betting and odds. 

...
 Based on what I have seen so far, I am ordering the program tommorow. I
 have never seen anything even close to this before

...
 Thanks again for a great program...... 

...
 After trying other programs in the past, I think this one is the best yet.
 I have recommended it to several friends.

...
 This method is far superior than other programs because it is all done
 automatically.

...
 I am fully convinced that MaxHit is the only logical approach to winning
 lottery jackpots. MaxHit is unique and has potential that the others
 wouldn't even understand

...
 I would like to inform you that I use your HiLotto 2.0 for about 4 months
 and I am very satisfied with it. My results in finding winning numbers are
 much better than before.

...
 has so much potential that it is difficult to imagine where it could go.


                         $$$...PHILOSOPHY...$$$


MaxHitPro finds the best systems for each individual game and does not assume
that one system is good for all. Each games' characteristics are therefore
taken into account.

In order to find the best match for a game, MaxHitPro uses thousands of
systems, each with different characteristics. These systems are tested on
past draws so that their REAL results can be observed. The systems that end
up in the Top10 list are based on these results and, since they were tested
on a range of past draws, they give a fair representation of what a system
is capable of achieving. The Top10 systems are therefore the best match for
the game being tested.

When playing a lottery-type game you are faced with the following example
questions :-

1...When playing 6 out of 49, how many numbers should you concentrate on?
Every game has "hot" numbers, so it is very inefficient to try and pick 6
from all 49 : better to pick 6 from say, 20 probable numbers (this alone
will reduce the odds by a huge amount).

2...When deciding which numbers will be probable winners, how far back in
the game history do you base your calculations? Will the winning numbers in
the last 10 draws give enough information? Or should you go back 50 draws?

3...How many bets should you actually use on a game? Too few means fighting
against huge odds; too many might be inneficient.

4...In a pick 6 game is it a good idea to use 6 number bets? Or will the
extra combinations of 7 (8, 9, or 10) give you more leverage?

5...When you have decided on which numbers to play, how do you combine them?
There are many methods available, which ones really are effective?

6...When using a lottery program, how do you know what you can realistically
expect to win from it? Do you have to bet actual money over an extended
period of time before you can make a judgement? Do you have to spend money
learning your mistakes?

MaxHitPro answers all of these questions without risking one cent. This is
why there are so many systems; it finds the best answer to '1' above by
providing systems that use different number groups; it finds the answer to
'2' above by providing systems that use different draw ranges to pick
numbers from; etc.

The drawback to MaxHitPro is that thorough testing can take a long time.
There are two considerations to take into account here :-

1...You're playing for big money so the time involved is worthwhile. Also,
since the program does everything for you, it can be run while you are
watching a movie or some other activity. You can even set it up to run over
night when you sleep.

2...The testing does not need to be done before every drawing. In fact, this
is a bad idea, because the graphs do not predict for the next draw. They
show what a system is capable of winning and if this is what you want, then
play with it for some time.


                         $$$...SYSTEMS...$$$


There are thousands of systems in MaxHitPro, each different in a small way.
They are tested over several past draws so this small difference will help
to fine-tune the selection of systems to the game being run.

The differences between systems is however, very important. They answer
questions that would be impossible to answer without spending a huge fortune
on many possible combinations.

When you seriously play a lottery game, you take into account various
factors, but the truth is you don't really know until after the fact (spent
money) whether you chose correctly. If you are playing a 6 out of 49 game for
example, you may believe that playing 6 out of 20 probable numbers is the
best way to go, but you don't know for sure unless you also try 6 out of 18,
6 out of 22, etc.

In other words, you have many choices to make before placing your bet and,
once made, you don't know how your other choices would have worked out.
MaxHitPro solves this by providing thousands of systems each set up with
different possible choices. They are tested live on past draws, calculating
REAL results just as if you had used each one of them. You will end up with
a Top10 list of money-makers without having spent a cent. The graphs will
show what these systems are realistically capable of winning so you will
know in advance what you can expect to win from them.

Many of the possible choices that you will have to make are covered by the
systems themselves but other, more personal choices, are available for
selection in the RUN module. For example, "Bet Length" and "Bet Width" are
personal choices which depend on your own financial status, and you can set
them up accordingly.

A "Run" will therefore test many possible combinations including your own
personal choices. Only the best are added to the Top10 list so you will end
up with the 10 systems most suitable for your choice of play.


                         $$$...TOP10...$$$


The whole idea of the program is to test thousands of systems on past draws
and use REAL results to build a Top10 list. You can then examine these 10
systems and choose one to bet with on the next draw.

You can test systems in blocks of 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000, or 3,000. For
example, if you test systems 1...100 you will end up with the 10 best
systems from this block. If you then test systems 101...200, you will end
up with the 10 best systems from both blocks (200). Testing systems can take
some time so the choice of block sizes can be used according to your time
schedule.

The main display allows you to examine the Top10 systems so that you can
decide on one (or more) to use on the next draw. The left toolbar is used to
select a Top10 system, and the right toolbar is used to examine it.

The systems that end up in the Top10 list are chosen according to the TARGET
set in "Run". A "Low" target will add low-win systems which pay out
regularly. A "Max" target will add max-win systems which pay out
occasionally.

The best way to build a Top10 list is to first decide on how much money you
are willing to play with on every draw. This will tell you the "Bet Length"
and "Bet Width" to use. Then decide on a "Test Size" and "Target", and run
all systems. This can take some time but it doesn't need to be done before
every drawing. It is only necessary to find a suitable system and use it for
some time in the future.

In other words, once you have found a system, all you will be doing from
drawing to drawing is filling out game tickets, and adding in draw numbers
to check results (adding in draw numbers automatically generates results for
the current draw, and bet lists for the next draw).

Since there is nothing to do between drawings you can make a copy of the play
game and experiment with it. You can then decide at your leasure whether to
change betting systems.

It is important to note that a systems' graph does NOT predict for the next
draw. A graph shows what a system is capable of and should be chosen for
this reason. If it shows that it is capable of winning a 5-number prize,
then you would use this system with the expectation of winning a 5-number
prize within a reasonable time scale (not the next draw).

Note that entering draw numbers will re-run the Top10 list in order to keep
it up to date with current results and next bets. You should be using one
of these systems draw after draw so the same Top10 systems will be
repeatedly updated.


                         $$$...TOP50...$$$


A Top10 list is built up at a particular period of time and should be used
into the future. The predictive qualities shown by the graphs will therefore
be given a chance to work. When used this way, the SAME Top10 list is
repeated draw after draw.

The Top50 list however, is ALWAYS updated and therefore shows the best
systems you have ever tested. It is not an extended Top10 list.

This list is therefore updated every time you use "Run" or "Draws" and
will include systems with ANY "run" conditions. There could be systems with
different targets, bet lengths, etc. If a system produces good results, it
will be added to this list irrespective of sizes.

You can examine this list by selecting "Run" then "Change Top10". If you do
a lot of experimenting then it may contain systems with sizes that are no
longer important to you. You can delete them individually or clear the whole
list (in this case it will start updating again with "Run" and "Draws").

Note that although this list is meant to show historical records of high win
systems, it can also be used for specific purposes. You can clear the list
and do a "Run", then do another "Run" with different sizes. Both results
will appear in the Top50 list so you will be able to compare them and decide
which to use.


                         $$$...FUTURE...$$$


MaxHitPro uses thousands of systems, each with different characteristics.
There are many possible variations and the idea is to find the best possible
combination for your game.

You may have your own personal preferences as to what methods to use when
betting but the only way you would know for sure is to compare methods. This
would cost a fortune. MaxHitPro solves this problem by supplying systems
with a whole range of characteristics, and testing them for real without
paying any money.

The first batch of systems available for MaxHitPro were based on one method
for predicting numbers, several variations of this method, and many other
characteristics. More batches will be offered in the future, each using a
different prediction method. No two systems will ever be the same.

All batches of systems can be tested alongside each other so in the end you
will have a Top10 list that will be unbeatable, and a Top50 list to back it
up.
