I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN.

It hurts to think about.

One time a few years back I forgot to buy my ticket with my numbers for PB - I made the effort to purposefully NOT see what the draw numbers were for that day - haha.

No way I could handle 4 draws a day of those games in my state - I don't want to spend that much haha

If I did play lucky daily that would be $60 a month - sheesh

I wonder if they pushed for daily because there have not been that many jackpot winners.

The thing is if my chosen set of numbers were drawn on a day I hadn't bought a ticket I would be very upset, putting it mildly.

Better to not play it at all. I will instead use the money I would have spent on LFL on my states lotto 47 game as extra plays.

I really have no data to back it up, but my wild guess is that Pick3 and Pick 4 games are way more popular than jackpot games.

On a unrelated side note scratchers are by far the biggest sellers for state lotteries.

So, Now with L4L going daily like C4L...

Will SC reverse its decision to end L4L

OR...will they jump to C4L..

OR...do they figure pumping up their new features on their pick 3 and 4 games more will offset the loss of L4L?

Any guesses

Or you could just keep playing twice a week. You don't have to play every drawing just because you can.

AWFUL DECISION! I currently play - twice a week every drawing. But since I can not afford to buy tickets if this game goes daily, I will completely stop buying tickets. Instead I will use the money I would have spent on Lucky For Life in my states lotto 47 game.

Actually the Lucky for Life payouts are twice as good as Cash for Life. The only one that Cash for Life beats is 3 numbers on a line for $25 vs: $20. The overall odds are better for Cash for Life because of only 4 bonus balls, but there are 12 more white balls to contend with if one is hoping for the jackpot and I expect fewer of those lower prizes are being won compared to Lucky. The odds of getting just the white balls right for the 5/5 are 7 million to 1 for Cash for Life vs: 1.8 million for

Well, if you choose to play every day, at $2 a ticket it most certainly will hurt your wallet.

And yes, it will give players more opportunities to win $1000 a day for life. With the odds that game has, it will most certainly give the lottery more opportunities to make more $$$.

That is why Texas has 4 draws a day for Pick 3, Daily 4, and All or Nothing. They ain't stupid.

Lucky for life is 1 and 30 million chance to win the Jackpot where Cash 4 Life is 1 and 21 million.

It's like six and one half dozen of the other with LFL vs C4L. I like that the cashball #on C4L goes from 1-4 and better prize payouts over all. Memory says the odds are harder with Cash 4 Life, so take it or leave it.
