7 points and the special draw want enough for area 7, for me or my dad. It's frustrating!!!!

Wow, that's really disheartening to a guy just starting out. Almost seems like it's not worth it to even get in this game.

7 points in the special was about 50% draw. You should be a lock to draw next year. Remember when you are studying drawing odds that the popular areas are typically gaining .5 to 1 full point a year on average to draw. Looking at area 7, it is gaining about .5 points or so each year in the special. Next year should be close to 100% for 8 points to draw. Of course there are no guarantees as there are a gob of people with points waiting for whatever reason to apply. Many people wait with points and never apply until they feel they have enough- therefore their stats don't show up on individual areas as unsuccessful for previous years.

UH, literally every swinging d*** I work with puts in for 124 now. Drives me nuts. I swear back when I put in for 32, everybody was putting in there. What magazine did the special on 124?
Has a been a blue chip here for years. Unfortunately a lot of locals have drawn there and killed big Bulls. Lots of local popularity for that reason.
