Truck driver stops to fill up his rig, from out of state, and scratches for a $100,000 winning scratch off

Millionaire for Life multi-state lottery game to replace Cash4Life and Lucky for Life in FebruaryReply
I haven't paid any attention to this game nut I just saw it on the NY lottery's home page for the first time. Obviously everybody gets to decide whether or not they want to play, but here are a couple of thoughts. The first is largely about playing this or playing PB (or MM) when the jackpot is still small. Generally, at least 8 to 10 million people (5 to 7 isn't unusual for Monday drawings) spend $2 when the annuity is $20 to $30 million (even if you die before the drawing) and the cash val

Mississippi players could spend $1000 and get a guaranteed $500 win. Most states have limits on the total amount the will pay out, but doesn't change the win for anyone wagering $1000 before the limit was reached. Lo

Idaho Lottery alerts retailers to possible bulk buying attempt over $877,800 Idaho Cash jackpotReply
The difference between Las Vegas casino games and rolling lottery jackpots is that casinos will quickly kick you out for winning too much *house money*. They don't care as much if you win too much *player money*. They still make money on every bet placed on progressive jackpots no matter how big it gets. Lottery rules make it almost impossible to win too much house money. But every single rolling jackpot game has the potential to turn a ticket from a gamble into an investment, and investors

Michigan $733,968 Fantasy 5 jackpot winner wins again, this time a $1M Millionaire Raffle prizeReply
I really liked the odds of the Millionaire Raffle game, so I bought several tickets, the winner explained to the Lottery. I won a $366,984 Fantasy 5 jackpot prize just over a year ago, so when I logged into my Lottery account and saw a notification that I'd won the $1 million Millionaire Raffle prize, I was in total disbelief that I'd won big again!
