So intuition is the name of his inside guy or what?
The headline gave me the misimpression that he had won the lottery on six different occasions, which would have put him in a class with Gladstone Gander, >

I think you forgot, >

-He played the lottery, like he had been doing for over 20 years.-
 .000000000001 times it works every time >

Intuition is just as likely as anything else when the results are truly random. >

Didn't all winners use intuition, really? >

The losers did, too. >

We all have so much in common! >

You like money? I like money. We should hang out. >

What stories like this fail to mention is that for the other 20 years he's been playing the lottery he used intuition as well.  
Don't get me wrong I am glad pure blind random chance worked in his favor. >

Why would he use the same numbers on each ticket? Isnt he just splitting the pot with himself? >

In theory maybe it'd get him a bigger share of the pot if anyone else guessed those numbers and bought only one, I guess? >

I guess if you're dead set on a certain set of numbers then it makes sense. >

or he was just really confident and wanted to be bamf to the lottery officials. >

How else does one win the lottery? It's always "I have a hunch these are the random numbers that will win." Nobody ever has a more valid reason for why they choose particular numbers. >

I would have to think there have been some random pick winners >

This is more a wonder of math and probability than his intuition. Not saying intuition doesnt matter but when it comes to predicted outcomes, planned in advance, without him having that knowledge, im more impressed by the probability of that. >

I lost the lottery six times on indecision. >

Nothing against his service but why is he identified as a Vietnam veteran? Surely he’s done other things in his life in the past 50 years. >

Oh yeah? Well if he's so intuitive, why hasn't he won the... oh, wait... >

Maybe now he can afford to buy Bo and Luke a new car
