Help for my 6/49 game,from clever lottery post membersReply
6/49 is a lot of numbers to deal with. Having select 15 from that can also be tough. If you did selected the winning numbers within the 15, your shot is much greater. To increase the odds of winning often you can try implimenting some of these techniques. Take 10 previous draw sums and eliminate those. Often times they don't show up for the next draw. Get the sum from your numbers per line, and if they matched up with any of the previous 10 draws then don't play that line. Reslect the numbers

Changes coming to Powerball multi-state lottery game in JanuaryReply
I thought I had heard it all, They double the price of a ticket, drop the odds down to the mega millions level and tell everyone what a good deal it is. If you buy 2 tickets for Mega millions your odds are only 1 in 87,855,786. Half that of the new PB game. RL

Changes coming to Powerball multi-state lottery game in JanuaryReply
That is a good idea. As for the prize structure, I'd rather see increases - HUGE increases - in the lower tier prizes. I strongly believe that paying out $100 (a fifth of the prize for the Pick-3) for odds of 1 in 19,030 (about twice the Pick 4) for any reason is extremely unethical. I will play only the Pick-3 and Pick-4 because payouts for those games are much more fair (50% of the odds). It is probably the low lower-tier prizes that allow the jackpot to get so high though. BTW Powerbal

What's up with Texas Cash 5?Reply
I quit playing Cash 5 because the odds are way out of line for the jackpot amount. If they would get rid of the $2 payout for 2/5, that would shift more $ for the jackpot, but like you said, they don't even talk about changing anything in the meetings, and like you, I read the minutes of the meetings also. Eventually we will see the Cash 5 just go away. I really hope they would replace it with a game like PA's Quinto. The odds are 100,000 to 1 for $50,000. We shall see.

N.J. casino loses more than $11M to two gamblersReply
The casinos didn't 'lose' that amount in reality, the other players during that time the winnerS was raking it in was maxing out their ATM accounts, stealing money from their wives pocketbooks, selling their jewlery, knocking over old ladies in the parking lots to get a few more bucks to have another 'spin. The casinos are losing money, even the Borgota, my fav hangout. Okay do the math, the odds are against the player depending on which game you play determines how much odds are against you. I

Straight in WC 2Reply
We really got to get 2 odds and an even going again. Its hit a total of 3 times since May 12th. It hit 8 times in May and 9 times in April while 2 evens and an odd hit... 12 times in April and 16 times in May June... 2 Odds and an Even hit 2 times while 2 Evens and an Odd has hit 6 times. Everything should even out over time but this is rediculous already. Unless one just sticks with whats hot... but isn't that when it all changes?

It was volleyball actually. I mostly bet on tennis basketball and soccer but sometimes i get bored and bet on volleyball, handball or darts when nothing else is on lol. good way to lose your money. volleyball is actually very profitable, as major comebacks are rare and the games are usually always close = better odds for both teams. say the score is 23 - 23 you will have both team at 2 to 1. tennis ive made lots of money on too as its an individual sport so favorites can have bad days. most risk

post if you have purchased a roll of scratch-off'sReply
Hey All, I just joined the forum because a friend and I are going halves on a roll next weekend:we're buying a $1000 dollar roll. I can't wait!! It's been 10 years since I've gone in on a roll.... lately I've been on a losing streak. Hit $500 on a Gold Rush (#22 on roll) on April 4, 2011 and have LOST on 90% of tickets since then. So, I'm going to go for it all on one roll with a buddy instead of getting a ticket here or a ticket there, etc... In March, I hit $200 on a Millionaire's Club, $20

Now that PB and MM jackpots are at $20.0M and $15.0M
Now that PB and MM jackpots are at $20.0M and $15.0M, some of the local games are looking more attractive. One of those games is Ohio Classic Lotto with a jackpot of $33.3M and a cash value of $16.65M and odds of 1:14M of winning its jackpot. Games with cash values greater than the odds of winning don't happen often and aren't around very long before someone win them. I'll be buying a ticket for Saturday's drawing and hoping to get lucky as I'm sure others will too.

I agree with everyone and I am officially done for awhile. Yesterday I took my $55 with the plan of 1 Million Dollar Platinum(if it was 018, since I had 016/017 last week), a Pure Gold and 5 20X. Well I scratched the 20X last night and hit $15 and played that today. While I was there yesterday the store owner and I were talking about odds and he ripped Money Money Money and Big Win Spectacular off to check the odds. I said I have to buy them now. Pure Gold -016, BWS 082, MMM-044, MDP 018 all
