Steve Player is the name of a company that specializes in creating paper pen lottery systems for Pick 3/4, 5/6, PB/MM. The website is Steve player dot com.

Lots of lottery systems to choose from, but some are quite expensive.

Was thinking the same thing. Who is this guy? The old guard needs to enlighten us 'newbies'.

A lot is mentioned about Steve Players, is he a regular here on LP? I haven't noticed any post by him yet unless he goes by an alias.

Congratulations to this jackpot winning ticket in New Hampshire. This is the 2nd time in the year 2016 that the Powerball jackpot winning ticket was a California Super Lotto Plus pick.

I walked right under a ladder at work the other day.

Thought it might bring me good luck instead of bad luck.

about half the people here actually believe that they have to travel to a lucky state to purchase tickets because they live in a state that hardly ever produces one. if they can't they believe that specific stores are luckier than others when of course they are located on state borders which sell more tickets thus producing more winners. these same people also believe you shouldn't walk under ladders or if you see a black cat you are in for some bad luck. they have trouble understanding if a cer...

It doesn't matter what state a person lives in, whether it's a small or large, the odds are always the same, when a lottery ticket is purchased.

Since we have been told that we live in a Cannot Lose State that means sooner or later a majority of the playing public in California will win the jackpot. Parachute or not.

You know how I feel about it! If you ever look up the Mass. lottery website and see when they have their semi-annual on MM/PB. You get seven weeks free during sale time. Downside no Powerplay or Megaplier, but no para-mutuel. Might be worth the trip for you.

Just received my Powerball Season ticket today

what kind of luck will he or she need. used up a lifetime of luck to hit it in the first place. won't need any more luck from here on in. they don't have to be lucky to avoid squandering it all. just smart. financial advisors are licking their chops to get their hands on this. they will be the lucky ones. insidious to wish someone luck after winning 484m. maybe before but not after.

(It wasn't me - I bought 5 tickets at home in MA then bought 2 more while on a day trip to ME so I can almost say I missed it by *that* much.

California's lottery is broken because of this stupid peri mutuel law it sucks. If I ever won a 5/6 powerball or mega millions ticket that's worth less than a million I'd donate it charity Then cash it in. Sometimes I wish I could move to Arizona and play lottery there.

The company Steve Player [headquartered in New Hampshire] could have won the PB Jackpot with a Quick Pick

Kingofearth — Mon, 01 Aug 2016 03:43:21 GMT

But if there was only 1 winner, that winner would get 170,000+ and (s)he wouldn't even need to put in the extra dollar for powerplay. 2+1 to 4+1 tends to have big prize pools so if you manage to be the only one (or a handful) then you could make quite a lot. 5+0 though almost always sucks regardless of the amount of winners.

Here's the lucky store that sold the solo winning ticket:

It's a small town with a population of 10K people and 29 sq miles. The town was incorporated in 1764. It's quaint, old school and beautiful. Will the new millionaires pack up and move to Florida

141 tickets matched four white numbers plus the Powerball and won $50,000. Of those tickets, 20 were purchased with the Power Play option, increasing the prize to $100,000, and 19 of the tickets were sold in California, where the prize was worth $9,028 this drawing.

What a rip of for Californians.

Huge congrats to the winners! Quick! While everyone's attention is on NH, win the $40-90 Mil PB / MM jackpot

TheMeatman2005 — Mon, 01 Aug 2016 01:26:06 GMT

How about those 19 California 4 + 1 winners that will get only $9,028 instead of $50,000?

All I can say about that is.... WOW

Mr./Ms. WinWinChicDin,

Thank you, and that is truly my thinking.

I congratulate the 15 winners as well (if they all came forward, so far).

But doggone it, 1 jackpot winner, again.

Probably won by a 60 something grandmother. Your new found wealth.

I think it unlikely that Player won. I haven't seen Steve's name in the NH lottery monthly winners list for anything for quite some time now. Anyways I always love to see a massive jackpot won by a small state, and even more so when it's MY small state. Way to go! Live free or die.

Congratulations to the winner in New Hampshire!

I am grateful that Power Ball starts at $40,000,000.00

Not too far away from the Massachusetts border, maybe a homie won it. Frequently winners play and win in Mass. from New Hampshire. Am hoping it is someone from NH that won though.

WinWinChicDin — Sun, 31 Jul 2016 22:47:49 GMT

Congrats to the lucky winners.

If this is not a true case of just how random the lottery is then I really don't know. Some draws we get no jackpot and no 2 prize winners

Then this draw we have a total of 16 tickets that matched the first 5 numbers alone...I wonder how many duplicate tickets are out there with each draw that never hits the jackpot.

It just shows that it could anyone of us and any darn time...just keep at it and it may be your lucky day
