Rhode Island lottery winner hits jackpot one day after son wins $1,000Reply
stunned? he only won 180,000 not 180 million. do you really think people are going to hunt down a winner looking for a handout for that paltry an amount. it wouldn't be worth the ink to print his name since no one would even care. cletus is more worried about having his name revealed in the unlikely event that he would win that he probably doesn't even play. he is scared of his own scarecrow in his own cornfield. yes, cletus we get it, for the umpteenth time. you are in favor of not revealing wi

Do some number combinations have better odds?Reply
True, and showing up in front of the cameras is a bit different that calling on the phone with a hypothetical question......... I can imagine the scrutiny I would go through in the event that I somehow WON a JP under the circumstances of buying 98,280 tickets at the state office..... lol. lol. lol.

BECAUSE THE BALL ARE NUMBERED the event is not COMPLETELY random Yes, perhaps I shouldn't describe you as confused.

??Forking over EXTRA CASH when Jackpots SKYROCKET??Reply
I only play when the Jackpots are really high, and depending on the game, I'll spend anywhere from $1 to $5-10. On the occasional, rare, maybe once a year event, I'll spend 20 on one draw. My total expenditures through the year on jackpot games is probably around 100 dollars, because I don't specifically budget it out. If I see a big jackpot, and I'm out, I spend a dollar. Otherwise, I usually don't.

Two workers in lottery pool sue over $118 million ticketReply
I think its a very good way to handle pool. Let's say a pool has 15 people and buy 150 tickets for each draw. Then every member should get (10) tickets :) It is not costly, but it might be time consuming. I guess you will have to weight it against the event of a lawsuit :) rather safe than sorry???

Which odds are better?Reply
Before the laws of aerodynamics were discovered I'm sure very few people on the whole entire planet believed a pile of steal and iron could fly through the air. If the balls were unmarked then I would say yes, it is entirely random event and impossible to have a predetermined outcome, but because the balls are numbered, lettered, or whatever, they are identifiable one from another and it can be predicted what the outcome will be. And if it can be predicted, it was predetermined, and if it was pr

Which odds are better?Reply
saying any 5 numbers have an equal chance of any other 5 is like saying you can shuffle a deck of cards and get 4 kings off the top just as easily as 4 random cards. That is pure stupidity. What's pure stupidity and extremely dim-witted is thinking that 4 kings have any more significance in a random event than any other 4 cards. Four kings, when not deliberately selected, are 4 random cards.

$640 MILLION: MEGA MANIA!Reply
I'm thinking 4 people are going to win it all, 80-100 second place prizes sounds about right. If by some outlandish event it rolls again, I expect this JP to get to a billion. All hell will break loose.
