Pennsylvania Lottery launches new Fast Play GamesReply
This is such a great step, I'm glad they have finally done it. I've been saying state lotteries need a game like this for years. Some scratch games have gotten way off the rails with lengthy, complicated steps needed to see if you're a winner. When the states added scanners (both in the store and now in mobile apps), players started scratching just the scan codes and checking if they had a winner. I think the lotteries may have finally gotten the hint to the lotteries that nobody wants all th

Well I did some research and it turns out they have codes all the way up to 5 million and the loser codes are always a combo of P,B,Z and D. Here's a link Scratch off codes VA. I'll look over all my cards though. Just in case.

This was long overdue as it has been requested by players all over their twitter feeds (probably Facebook too) for a while. It might have been very useful when 2nd Chance was at its peak 2009-2012, when there was no limit at the time. Now there is a 500 ticket limit, it does not take much effort to punch in the codes anymore and to reach the limit (I used to exceed 500 in the past, now I put in 10 a month at most). Now when you look at the Results and Winners page, the drawings for each game

1 million dollars a year for life 1 winner leftReply
I agree that the destroyed tickets should not be destroyed. I think that when a business goes out of business or however it changes for tickets to b sent back, that the lottery should make provisions or they should sell them at their locations. This way they are always in play. With that said, I cannot think of another game that has gone on for as long as this one has. Let me put it to you this way it is so old that it was printed before they put bar codes on the tickets. It is the only scratch

My day was decent. I had $50 worth of winners from the past day or two. I took them to work. There were 3-$20 1Mil super Cash. All 3 lost. Owing him $10 I took $40 from the ATM. I played that out. I saw the other bin of Super Cash had 5 left. I always scratch the codes and hand it back telling him how much I won(as a guessing game). The first one I said won $20, it lost. I told him the 2nd lost and it did. I told him the 3rd one hit $100, so we break even. Well it hit $250. turns out to have the

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Tickets are terrible here. I have just about given up. A lot of the regulars around here have either quit or play very little anymore. The UPS guy (who used to buy $1K+ a week) now plays maybe $100 a week. Saw him today and he told me he just walks right past the machine when he makes his rounds at Publix. His wife is pregnant and I imagine he is quite a bit in debt too. Also never see this woman buying anymore. She was a maid at some high end hotel and you could count on seeing her everytime yo

How To Determine Winning Scratch-Off Lotto Tickets – TexasReply
Ok, I wanted to post my entire 'how to' on this, but basically, the edge here is the ability to tell (by calculation) IF a ticket is a winner or not. It is an exact formula? Process? But, all I know is this - in designing this 'random' game, the only random thing is which packs get delivered to which stores. Am I saying that the Lotto folks KNOW where the jackpots are? YES, without a doubt. Because, if you examine the jackpot winners, ALL the winners have packet numbers (even various) that add u

I am going to post a few tickets later. No wins All losses. My grandmom passed away last night. If you guys think I gamble alot, she makes me look like I spend pennies a year. We were going through stuff and she had tons and tons of old tickets in case she had to claim. There were tickets from 1979/1980 in the attic. I didn't know they had scratchoffs back then. Also found a tons of tickets through the 90's(when they still had the parenthesis codes). I am going to check the odds on the older tic

I also wouldn't be surprised due to its very low ticket count that some JP tickets are simply thrown away, skewing the real top prize remaining percentage. We, of course, will never know. Just in the last several weeks, I found four $10 tickets with matching numbers thrown away without prizes scratched off because the player thought they were losers. I'm still amazed at people that only take a sliver of latex coating off and try to match numbers that way without scanning the 2D codes for veri

NY deli owners stole $1M lottery ticket, cops sayReply
I'm originally from LI ,this is a sad story and I'm glad they got caught too! I never had a win even close to that but I had $500 win and other similiar wins on scratch off and had been told they were NOT A WINNER BC the scanner in the store was broke and the clerk had to scan it. Mind you this was when I first started playing and had no clue of the codes, so I was part to blame. But I feel the clerk was dishonest to keep my money and do that to me. When I was told what the certain codes meant b
