Jackpot-fixing investigation expands to more state lotteriesReply
I saw the story, and I don't think ABC did a good job on it. They are being very confusing with the 30 states thing, because 30 states did not use the computerized equipment being discussed. For example, they highlighted Texas as one of the states, even though Texas uses no computerized drawings.

HOT LOTTO DRAWING CHEAT CHARGED WITH RIGGING MORE JACKPOTSReply
Edessa_Knight, There were a bunch of bars in Vegas back in the late 1980s that were all part of a progressive Royal flush jackpot on video poker machines.

So what would the "Holy Grail" of Pick 3 playing be?Reply
Well, of course, the computerized drawings are not truly random. The algorithm is a pseudorandom number generator(PRNG). But, you can ,probably, forget about anyone figuring it out. This is only wishful thinking. Anyway, what exactly makes you believe that they tinkered with the algorithm and ,also, for the purpose of frustrating players? Even if they did, there are other possible reasons for doing so. For example, to either fix an issue or ,simply, make it better. Just fyi, there have been
