Answer Me This...Reply
One more 'one more thing'...... I firmly believe that The Florida Lottery knew well in advance of implementing the midday drawing that ticket sales would go down. By how much they'd go down was probably the only question they had on their minds. They also were very likely aware (probably advised by an advertising/marketing firm) that tampering with something that works very well could have very negative consequences in terms of ticket sales. (Like happened to Coca-Cola when they changed

Answer Me This...Reply
I realize that from a Florida Fantasy5 players perspective going to two draws per day flat out stinks, and that me posting all of the hidden benefits for the Florida Lottery doesn't make it any better for players. However there is one more thing I'd like to say and then I'll stop my long winded rants. I think in 2020 (not sure if that's the correct year or not, but if it's not 2020 then it's close to 2020) The New York Lottery implemented two drawings per day for their Pick5 game, Take5. Tak

PowerballReply
As hard as I might try to disguise the fact that just one player won five times (10 million dollars) by buying five separate one line tickets at five different stores located in three different county's, I have to believe The Fla Lottery would suspect something was up if it actually happened. First of all, FIVE two million dollar winning tickets sold in Florida in a single PB drawing??? That doesn't happen much if it's ever even happened at all in the past, which I doubt. There was one winne

Florida and Claiming a Jackpot AnonymouslyReply
You could always ask them what their policy is. The NY page doesn't always have pictures, but I'm not sure if they have an entry for every player that wins at least $1 million or a lifetime prize. I don't know how far back it goes, but you can keep adding older stories to the NY age for a while. If Florida only shows a dozen recent winners they're definitely not showing every million dollar winner, but I don't see any obvious reason that recent has to mean in the last month or two. They're basic

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
[Again] After millions of people threw away $5 on the new game format, I wonder how many of them will come back for more punishment Including the sales forecast for Tuesday's drawing MM is reporting revenue of a hair over $72 million for the first 3 drawings of the current run. That's 12.5% more than the $64 million in revenue for the first 3 drawings of the last run. That said, it may not be indicative of what we'll see after another few drawings because whenever the jackpot gets to about

Scratch off'sReply
I just googledmy state. This is what ai said....., Maryland scratch-off prizes are paid in a lump sum, not an annuity . Annuity payments, which distribute winnings in installments over many years, are an option only for large jackpot prizes from specific drawing games like Powerball, Mega Millions, and Multi-Match.

You Can't Lose If You Don't PlayReply
Any set of n combinations out of 1,000 can be expected to hit at the rate of n/1000 per drawing. This is basic probability theory. Lotterology is just like scientology... complete hogwash.

I once received a $100 check on a second chance drawing from the Louisiana Lottery and it came in a window envelope with the logo and address like the one in the picture.

Does Lottery Software work?Reply
No, it doesn't work. Nothing can predict random numbers in a fair drawing. The balls have no memory and have no preference for being drawn more frequently or less frequently than expected.
