Secrets of a lottery lawyer-Kurt Panouses interviewReply
Omg. He posted less than 24 hours ago that his son worked for Morgan Stanley and now, to cover his error, is giving an excessively detailed story as to why he does not work there 24 hours later. People who are pathological liars tend to give excessive and unneeded details. None of this passes the straight face test.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
I have it, just haven't worked on it much. I've been more focused on PB MM... lots of data to check, double check, error correct and format.

classic questions on lottery forumsReply
1:1 is a ratio of equal proportion, it is standard accepted notaion. 1.:1 (A syntax error in programming languages) is a less used and not standard way of denoting a specific example of a 1 to 1 ratio. I have never encountered any other usage.

DC 5 Lottery needs to be audited immediately. The same thing that happened to Tennessee in 2007Reply
We have confirmed the problem and published an exclusive news story: https://www.lotterypost.com/news/358976 Many thanks to Newkids06 for finding and documenting here, and thanks to all who analyzed and published findings here. The DC Lottery confirmed that Lottery Post was the first to identify the problem, which would have continued if we had not made them aware. Nicely done! The DC Lottery has implemented temporary fixes and will be announcing the error and fixes shortly.

Is there any method or system that can an predict the first digit that will fall in Pick 3Reply
I agree with your second paragraph. The first one still has an error: Two 1 in 146,100,669 chances 2*1/146100669 is 1 in 97,400,446. This is incorrect for 2 tickets (it is correct for 4 tickets). Each ticket has a 1 in 292,201,338 chance of winning, the same as a single ticket. But when you have 2 of them, your overall odds of winning with the two tickets is 2 in 292,201,338.

pareto 80/20Reply
I understand pareto charts, I used them frequently when I worked in machine shops. The most important takeaway was indeed root cause analysis when it provided actionable intel, such as looking at the frequency of offset adjustments to compensate for tool wear and using that information to set a part inspection process to determine exactly how many parts could be made before adjusting those offsets. It is a powerful tool for solvable problems. The pitfall is that this is not a problem with a

Every Lottery Player Think About This For A Second...Reply
Virginia drew 4444 and because it was so popular, they paid out $7.9 million in winnings. I guess Virginia isn't part of the scam? Yes, the lottery makes lots of money, but that money gets spent by the state. It does not go to lottery workers pockets. They don't benefit personally. Unless they're thieves, but that can be anywhere, including lottery retailers where they scam people who have winning tickets by lying to them. That is far more widespread than cheating by lottery workers, and you

Had this type of the odds are debates many times and usually both sides are saying the same thing but expressing it differently. Some divide the number of outcomes by the number of chances and others divide the number chances by the number of outcomes and get a percentage. In the first example 1000 divided by 2 equals 500 to 1. In the second, 2 divided by 1000 equal .002 which is the inverse of 500 to 1. Most standard calculators have a inverse 1/x button. If we put in 500 and hit the 1/x b

PowerballReply
I'm sure that lots of players will spend $390 on PB tickets, but I doubt that many would spend it all at once. There are 13 weeks from 12/1 to the end of February, and 13 divides conveniently into 390 to play $30 per week. At the $2 cost that's 5 tickets for each of the 3 drawings, and I suspect that few players want to but 5 tickets for every drawing. Interestingly, the FL limit for advance play on PB is 52 drawings. That seems like a sensible number for a game with one drawing per week or two
