If you hang around Lottery Post long enough, you'll see a lot of old ideas get recycled as something new to people who never heard of them. RJOh

Thanks for the info, did not realize it was around for that long. Sounds like it will take along time to fill the positions. Playing the lotto as a pool of people is not illegal. It is a lot of money and plays a huge risk, kind of like the stockmarket. They may never get it up and going if it has been that long, it just seemed like an interesting way of playing.

Actually the Ohio lottery website has a list of 428 numbers that contains all the previous winners in Ohio649 SuperLotto, but playing that list is no guarantee that you will win anything. I use the list as a guide to what not to play as combinations of fours and greater seldom repeat. Coming up with a list of 500 lines to play that match at least five 30% of the time would really be a new way of playing the lottery. That's my idea, but anyone is free to run with it if they want.RJOh

It wasn't a pyramid scheme. They had about three hundred thousand lines they think will contain the jackpot winning combination about one time in three and if they could scratch together enough to play three draws in a row they felt a win was possible. Problem is they won't show the lines and even if they would the lines could be liberally salted with previous wins from around the world, so only the complete list against future draws would be a possible indicator of anything valuable.

I looked into their scheme a couple of years ago. The statistics on their web site had several errors. When I pointed out the errors to them, they replied that they did not have the time to correct them. But they had no problem finding the time to continue to solicit members to contribute $10,000 per person to join their scheme.I do not trust them and would advise everyone to avoid them.Good luck,Jake
