Why Mega Millions And Powerball Have More Winners Regardless Of The Odds To Win
That is right jackpot games such as mega millions and powerball produce more winners than any other games because there is a larger pool of people playing these games. For example, mega millions and powerball produce more winners than new york lotto and sweet million because the pool of players in ny lotto and sweet million is very small compare to mega million and powerball. When the pool of players is large enough in any particular lottery game, a large numbers of the total combinations to win

My digit system for pick-5 or pick-6 lottery
Hello
Somethings to consider using this system
In a 5-39 game if you play ID = 2 the only 3 digits that can make 5 or more numbers are the
digits 1-2-3 There are 3 combos of 2 that can be taken from these digits 1-2, 1,3, 2,3.
However.
choice #1. 1-2 make the numbers 01-02-11-12-21-22.
choice #2. 1-3 make the numbers 01-03-11-13-31-33.
choice #3. 2-3 make the numbers 02-03-22-23-32-33.
In a 5-39 lottery
If ID = 2, only digits 1-2-3 only are capable of producin

What's with NY Sweet Million??
Sweet Millions has only had 5 or 6 Jackpot winners since the games inception back in Sept. 2009. Not too long after this game was introduced New York added PowerBall to its List of lottery games. Hence, the regular NY Lotto59 has been reduced to 500k increases per drawing when no winner is selected as opposed to the 1 Million increase.The pattern is more people play Power/Mega + Take 5 + pick 3 4 and Sweet Million is not quite in the limelight.
Sweet Millions has a nice Jackpot odds of 3,838,

What's with NY Sweet Million??
I just did more research on the odds of winning Mega Millions and NY Lotto. The odds are about 4 million to 1 to win either second prize in Mega Millions ($250,000), second prize in NY Lotto ($181,000, prize amount given out in latest drawing), and the first prize in Sweet Million.
Based on this information, I think NY Lotto and Mega Millions are a better value than Sweet Million (as Thrust posted), because I have a 4 million to 1 chance to win second prize on Lotto and MM while still having

Jackpots are always won with one set of numbers
This is an old argument that I tend to agree with, that your chances don't actually begin to improve to HIT the jackpot until the number of plays start approaching the possible number of combinations.
BUT.............................if you buy 2 tickets you double your chances to hit 1 in 87,500,000 roughly.
if you buy 100 tickets your odds on PBALL drop to 1 in 1,750,000 roughly.
if you but 1000 tickets your odds on PBALL drop to 1 in 175,000 roughly.
if you buy 1,000,000 tickets yo

Combinations
He's only describing odds, which in the case of 18 numbers is 1 in 753.28, period. There are no combinations to have.
For a 6/49 game there are 13,983,816 possible combinations to choose from using all 49 numbers. If you pre-choose 18 numbers and make all of your choices from those 18 numbers there will be 18,564 combinations you can choose from. Those 18,564 combinations are 1/753.28 of the 13,983,816 combinations possible with all 49 numbers. The chances that all 6 winnning numbers will be

Great Discovery: The Dumb & Dumber system for Pick5: If you are desperate & patient
also i said filtering because:
i am not telling you what to play but the odds that it will be for instance: 26,27,28,29,30 where every ending digit is from 6-10 the odds of it happening are so small..
or from: 36-40 again with the ending digits very high are so small...same thing with: 21-25 where all of the ending digits are low or from 30-35 where all of the ending digits are low, the odds of that happening are low...is probably going to be in between...i am sure you can find the pattern

A question about lotto system odds
so 2/6 isnt equal to 1/3 ? its more like 4/6 of losing. i hear you about the not destroying 7 million odd by buying one extra ticket. if only we could always lose 7 mill chance by buying an extra ticket.
so you would rather
2 tickets = 13M-2 out of 13 mill odds of losing
4 tickets = 13M-4 out of 13 mill odds of losing
8 tickets = 13M-8 out of 13 mill odds of losing
etc. sorry mate i prefer my way , it keeps me hopeful
oh and as stack pointed out, it dont hel

If you Plan to Leave LP or Quit gambling...
Theres haters everywhere! It is all about Luck!
That might be true, but when they offer these multi-million dollar games, eventually somebody is going to win a huge jackpot. I doubt very many of the millions of losing players lay awake all night thinking about how unlucky they were. Every time I've bought a MM ticket I knew the odds of me winning the jackpot were 175 million to 1 against me so I never thought how unlucky I was because I didn't win the jackpot. And knowing the fact the odds
