Do you believe every combination has the same probability?Reply
What is the best bet after let's say 3 flips land on one side (heads) in your opinion? Do you believe the coin is fair? If so, heads always has the same chance as tails and there is no best bet, regardless of what has happened in the past. 3 heads in a row is a fairy high probability event and will occur fairly frequently, and it's easy enough to demonstrate things yourself. Sit down for a relatively short period of time and flip a coin 100 times and record the results. Better still take a

Mississippi Gov. says he's open to discussing state lotteryNews Story
Creating a lottery has been mostly just a sidebar debate in Mississippi and the Legislature for decades oft discussed, but never gonna happen. Ever since former Gov. Ray Mabus' ill-fated push for one in 1990 helped get him un-elected, any effort to create a lottery has faced a certain gubernatorial veto and was, therefore, moot. That appears to have changed. As recently as January, Gov. Phil Bryant called the idea of a lottery a silly notion, and more directly said, I am not for it.

How a retired NC potter won the lottery 111 timesNews Story
One of the most prolific winners in North Carolina lottery history wants you to know two things: he doesn't cheat and he understands the games better than anyone. Through late last year, no one had more big wins than retired potter Phil Morgan, who won 111 times and collected more than $500,000, an Observer data analysis found. But that record comes with an asterisk. Most wins were for the Pick 4 game. If you play the same number combination multiple times on one drawing, and it hits, each

CT Lottery aware of security problems before shutting down gameNews Story
Months before Connecticut Lottery's 5 Card Cash game was suspended, lottery officials knew there was a security issue that eventually allowed the game to be rigged, according to a four-month investigation. 5 Card Cash, a combination instant-win/evening-draw game, was suspended on November 14, 2015 after it was discovered that retailers were using a flaw in the computer system to rig the game to buy only winning tickets.

Why are American lotteries rigged?Reply
I'm not sure what the odds of any of the games you listed are compared to ours but PB MM odds are huge. The bigwigs in charge like it that way. Personally, I would like to see more winners split a jackpot rather than have one person win more money than they'll ever spend. The attraction is an enormous pot that has each player thinking it could be me! That thought is fueled by an aggressive and highly effective ad campaign everytime the pot reaches record amounts. It only takes
