Mississippi Lottery halts Cash 3 triple payout promotion one week inReply
Apparently the Mississippi Lottery doesn't employ anyone that understands a pick 3 game. Especially when syndicates are spending millions in some states to buy every lotto game combination for a guaranteed jackpot with the only risk of splitting it was other winning tickets. 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

Mississippi Lottery triples all Cash 3 prizes for NovemberReply
i really wonder what their logic was when they came up with this promotion. some ideas: the ms lottery assumes that most players reinvest their winnings into buying more tickets, therefore the free money will just go back into the ecosystem. or... the ms lottery assumes that only a small fraction of players will make playing pick 3 their full time job and that the vast majority will not buy up all straight combinations every draw. i don't think the second one is a safe assumption.

I calculated the odds of this happening... win $300,000 (or more) on the first OR second OR third OR fourth scratch off ticket 1 in 31,250 pick 3 straight is 1 in 1000 So, getting both is 1 in 31.25 million Congrats!

Powerball drawing produces huge number of big winners, including two who split the jackpotReply
Yes, because of the play slip angle that many do. I think I will go vertical on row 5 today some said. Others did row 3, 4 or 6. Some pick numbers that form a W on the slip. Some pick them that form an L on the slip. Some pick the lowest number and the highest number and fill in the rest with other favorite numbers. Some play 1,2,3,4,5. Actually thousands do that so don't do it.

Millionaire for Life multi-state lottery game to replace Cash4Life and Lucky for Life in FebruaryReply
Since FL is not jumping on the $5/ticket bandwagon, I guess I'll just have to miss Cash For Life. Just barely missed two 2 second prizes in Dec 2024. Only game that has reasonable odds to win enough money to be comfortable for a long time. I wouldn't be able to afford the $25 a draw to pick a set of numbers everyday and cover all the Cash Balls like I can do for $8 now, so I might have only played one ticket 3 or 4 times a week. HOWEVER...they could raise the jackpot as they have and le

No, 3-3-3-3 should not be dropped, just stop playing it. I do feel for anyone who has been playing quad 3 for the entire 36 year history of the Virginia Pick 4, that is a is a $24,192 loss.

Virginia Lottery players rake in $7.9 million with 4-4-4-4 in Pick 4Reply
Ontario recently (Feb) went full RNG for pick 2/3/4/KENO and I quit playing shortly after. RNG is fishy, I don't trust it nor 'them' and so I no longer play. Watch that new, free documentary called 'Jackpot: America's Biggest Lotto Scam' on YouTube if you think rigging and inside jobs it don't happen. It will happen (and probably already is) again.
