The WA Unlucky for Life is about to be replaced with a $5 scratch game. The new version will offer a $750,000 cash option for the 1k/week (paid yearly) top prize.The PA (and OR) online life games need cash options or be scrapped.

Even if NY pulls out of Mega Millions, MM still will be much better than Unlucky for Life.

Which game is a bigger joke: this or NY Lotto 6/59

What's with the big increase in each of the prize categories

there's a problem right there. it isn't so much the fact that there weren't any top prize winners. the fact that the odds are actually pretty good, but there are still not enough winners of lower prizes.

Only nine second prizes 1/29/2005.

Or 1/22 for that matter.

Once again (1/19), no lifetime loser.

At least the new $2 game in Delaware won't have a lifetime prize AFAIK.

I was right with my earlier prediction. I said it would be between 20,000 - 21,000 this week. There were 20,225 instant winners in Lucky for Life Lotto this week. Next week we will see the end of the 20,000 instant winners. How low will we go? Well, I don't have to worry about that this week. I am in San Antonio, Texas through Sunday and have been enjoying new lottery games. Texas Two Step, and by the way, Mega Millions is awesome down here with the Megaplier feature. I love the lottery down her... [ More ]

Nah, I'm only 18... I'm still new at this lottery thing. But anyway, how many drawings have there been of Lucky for Life Lotto? Wow, I see it dipping below 20,000 VERY SOON....

Mars:You probably don't remember that New Jersey had a game called Lucky 7 (modeled after the PA Super 7) that lasted only 5 drawings.

JMorenoMars — Tue, 21 Dec 2004 04:46:07 GMT

Down to 22,000... How low can you go? This time next week I see it at 20,000 - 21,000.. Then finally dipping to 18,000 - 20,000 the following week. Considering the amount of people that live in PHILADELPHIA ALONE .. This definetly is NOT a good thing. This game will be played off as a promotional game or just cancelled. I wouldn't be surprised if PA LOTTERY started saying LUCKY FOR LIFE LOTTO - FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY. I don't see Lucky for Life making it to the summer months.

I bet it will drop below 20,000 by the week of January 2.

JMorenoMars — Mon, 20 Dec 2004 03:59:37 GMT

I think two more weeks around 22-24,000 then it will dip below 20,000. We'll have to see...

I hate to break it to you, but PA seems like they're waiting for Lucky for Life to grow on people, which may never happen. So I think we're gonna have it for a while. A long while. I mean the game must have huge profit margins because not only is the top payout sucky (36 grand a year is a bad prize, I'm sorry), but no one ever wins it. In fact, only one person ever has won it.

With only two winners since it's first game, I don't see the Lucky for Lotto staying even through first quarter 2005. We'll have to see how it goes. 2 and a half months with only 2 winners. Instant Winners are down to 24,000 per WEEK! That's just a little over 3,000 per day STATEWIDE! That's ridiculous. Lucky for Life = Discontinued by March 15, 2005.

i don't think hearts and diamonds was promotional, but i know the original mid-day daily number and big 4 drawings at noon were promotional.

NY has had several promotional games in recent years, most notably $2 Millennium Millions.

Was Hearts Diamonds a promotional game (even that one was better).

i'd give it a few more months. i could see PA trying to play it off as a promotional game.
