Ohio man has the "best day of his life" after winning the lottery twice in one dayReply
Lotterologist nails it, starting with that $250 Pick 3 win from a 50-cent midday bet, which gave him the nudge for the $300K scratcher later, turning impulse into a massive payday. Three layers of luck in one day like that is the stuff of legends, especially since Pick 3 top prizes are straight plays matching all three digits in order. Guy from Chardon must still be pinching himself.

Oooh...you noticing those daily games too. I thought I was the only one seeing those anomolies in the games here in Ontario. Surprise, surprise. Glad you're seeing it too! Quick back story: I do a lot of paper betting and practicing for the Pick 2 games. Decided to do a back testing w/o tracking to see how often double digits (ex 11 55 88) hit over a specific period of time vs single digit pairs. And to my surprise/not surprise, for a consecutive 40 draws - 20 days [March 11,

Idaho man wins the lottery for the 18th time over 30 yearsReply
Most of those are Pick 3. He must spend an enormous amount of money on the lottery. If he's ahead, it's not by much.

Millionaire for Life multi-state lottery game to replace Cash4Life and Lucky for Life in FebruaryReply
It's probably because of their pari-mutuel law. It would be silly to offer a game called millionaire for life if it never pays a million dollars a year. Even the simple game of Pick 3 doesn't pay $500 for a $1 straight bet (it could, by chance). It's more than $500 if fewer than average tickets hit and less than $500 if more than average tickets hit it.

Don't play trips or quads. Say you bet on 5-5-5 for pick 3, the only way to win is 5-5-5 since it's the same forwards or backwards.
