wrong thats only if you had to match the sequence of the balls coming out of the machine I.E...

6,3,5,5,2,1 comes out in that order of coruse u would only have needed to pick 1-6 and NOT the sequence also.. that would be 10 billion to 1.

I dunno how to really put it but heres another way.. obviously all the below are the same but it is how it would work for the 10billion to 1.
1,2,3,4,5,6
6,5,4,3,2,1
1,3,2,4,5,6
2,3,4,5,6,1

etc etc.. all the above are the same on a lotto ticket and you need only match the six numbers and not any sequence.. hope this sort of makes sense? no? didnt think so..
