Why use PimpMyLuck to determine my Powerball numbers ?

PimpMyLuck is based on a mathematical algorithm that generates a sequence of 5 Powerball numbers (1 to 69) and 1 lucky number (1 to 26). Unlike most generators that are random, PimpMyLuck is deterministic based on your birth dates and those of a close person. This means that the Powerball numbers played depend on these dates and are therefore unique to you (unless someone else shares the same birth date as you and the linked person). Additionally, PimpMyLuck incorporates a time variable that allows your personalized Powerball numbers to vary each week. Instead of playing randomly, play your personalized PimpMyLuck numbers.
