317 Pick 3 Strategy

The 317 rundown is one of the most popular and successful strategies for Pick 3 games. This strategy provides a week’s worth of numbers and works best when playing midday to midday draws or evening to evening draws. This example uses Florida’s midday draw of 427 on 9/6/17.

The first step is to set up 317 with the previous winning draw below it, which gives you 3 columns. You then add each column until you get back to the number you started with, in this case 427. For the first column, you will add 3 + 4 = 7. Then 7 + 3 = 10 (use lottery math and drop the 1 and just use the 0). You continue adding 3 all the way down the first column. Then do the same thing with the 1 and 7 columns.

Once you’ve done the rundown you can narrow down your choice of numbers by highlighting the hit and date sums. To get the date sum you add the month and day together. In this example, the date was 9/6/17 so you add 9 + 6 = 15. You drop the 1 and 5 is your date sum. You get the hit sum by adding the numbers from the previous draw. In this case it would be 4 + 2 + 7 = 13. Again, you drop the 1 and 3 is your hit sum. You then look for combinations of three numbers to play that are around the highlighted numbers. In this example, there was a hit almost every day in the week following 9/6/17 from this rundown.
