Playing the lottery is more of a mystery. Nobody knows if or when they will win it. Right place, right time and some luck are equally important as the winning numbers.

l think that one has to be realistic when it comes to winning the jackpot, any jackpot. It's like someone once said you have to be in it, to win it . It's the luck of the draw, no way else to explain it. It's very much like Death,winning the lottery is not a respecter of persons, you never know when it's gonna happen or to whom. I read this piece yesterday about child molesters winning jackpots and people end up saying . Well dammit, these people are downright evil yet they coming away with mill... [ More ]

I've been playing one ticket per draw for Cash 5, PB and MM. Now SC has added Lucky or Life. I'm thinking about focusing more on Cash 5 and cutting out MM and PB. Will probably try LFL for a month or so and see what happens.

I agree with you about being hard to win anything ... the Match 6 even with all those extra numbers for example, I can go four or five drawings in a row and win nothing.

Lost even more earlier in the month on all the games ... but I have tickets and hope, n... [ More ]

I think about how much to spend all the time. I play Texas 2 Step, Lotto, and MM without fail every week. I also buy tics for a pool at work. What I have learned over the years is that it doesn't matter if you spend $10 at a time on one game or $1 at a time on one game. It's hard to win anything. Obviously, the more tics you buy the better your chances, but the odds on jackpot games are so high that buying more tics just make hardly any dent. Remember the pro basketball player that bought $10000... [ More ]

Would like to hear thoughts from others about playing all the high paying jackpot games in their state ... or just picking only one jackpot game and hitting it hard with all your lottery dollars.

OK ... for example let's say you have a lottery budget of $200 for the month ... I imagine most people don't spend that much but some do ... so for now, let's work with the $200 figure.

In PA the 6/49 game cost $2 a ticket but you get 3 plays or lines to win the jackpot, there are also other ways... [ More ]
