$10M Mega Millions Win!Reply
There are no guarantees in gambling. No you are not going to have a one in 58 million chance, you are going to have reduced the possible combinations by five that's all. Since you still believe in an additional ticket cuts the odds in half just keep buying tickets until the odds are in your favor guaranteed some kind of win.Oh wait, that's not possible.

The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
That's awesome. Congratulations on your ticket. And good luck! I had basically the same experience at the local gas station by me. When buying. Then I explained the odds to her. And told her it was pretty good odds. I think she bought a ticket or two.

Is there any method or system that can an predict the first digit that will fall in Pick 3Reply
Why would they express the odds of winning? Since you mention it though and since you've worked in casinos for a long time what is the only table games bet that pays true odds?

Pure baloney. If playing a second ticket cuts the odds in half why stop with the second ticket, why not keep buying more tickets until you are pretty sure of a win. MM and PB odds can only be reduced by half if you play half of all the combinations.

Multi state gamesReply
The Florida Lotto odds is for one ticket. If you buy three of them, assuming the numbers are different, your odds of winning $3.2 million go up to about 1 in 7 million.

classic questions on lottery forumsReply
There is a difference in that odds are supposed to be expressed as the ratio of [event A] to [event B], which is equivalent to probability being [event A]/([event A]+[event B]), where A and B are mutually exclusive and exhaustive. But in the lottery, people refer to odds in the same way as probability. So on this board, they are the same for all practical purposes. Your voodoo math and conspiracy theories are irrelevant to their distinction. For example, with the Colorado Lottery's $250,

Agreed. People often equate odds and probability even though technically they are not exactly the same. Odds is just easier because it's one syllable. Probability has more letters and five syllables. So, with Pick 3, the traditional way to describe odds of winning with a single ticket is 1:999, and with a second ticket, it is 2:998. You can reduce 2:998 to 1:499.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
both tickets are still up against odds of more than 292.2 million to one. No, each ticket is up against odds of 292 million to one. Both tickets are up against odds of 146.1 million to one. Besides, ... Those who refuse to lay out $5 for a ticket that could win millions are outrageous.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
If the Mega Millions jackpot rolls four more times, it will break the 36 roll record for Mega Millions. The odds the jackpot is won in the next draw is about 3.3%. Lets say the odds for each of the next fours draws averages out to 3.5%, then the odds the jackpot rolls at least 4 more times is about 87%. The Powerball record is 41 rolls.

Considering 189,977,424 $5.00 MM combos won't match one number or the bonus number, playing games like Lucky for Life, Cash Ball 225 and Texas Two Step gives more chances to actually win something. For the same $5 the 10,000 to 1 odds of winning $25,000 playing pick 4 is much better than the 893,761 to 1 MM odds of matching 4 + 1 to win at least $10,000 depending on what the multiplier is. Granted the prize could be $100,000 but that doesn't change the odds. It should be obvious why MUSL bel
