True about the computerized drawings. However there are some notable exceptions. Canada seems to have the best record here.

Here is a listing of all the state and provincial lotteries that have a 5 Card Cash/Poker game, and the drawing type:

Arizona - 5 Card Cash - Computerized British Columbia - Poker Lotto - Computerized Connecticut - 5 Card Cash - REAL BALL DRAWING Indiana - Poker Lotto - Computerized Kentucky - 5 Card Cash - Computerized Maryland - 5 Card Cash - Computerized Michigan

The prizes are a little small on the lower end but to chances to win on the same ticket is a plus.
