Statistics around the balance of even/odd and small/big numbersReply
RL CT Why would the lotteries care about anything you mentioned above or for that matter why would anyone. While it is true that most people pick five or six numbers to build each set they play and may include many different digits, odd numbers, even numbers, High numbers, low numbers and any other type of number or information they think may be useful or better in some way verses a quick-pick, I don't see a problem with this. From quite a few discussions on this board, es

7 States I Would Not Live InReply
joker, Some of thiose are hilarious, especially Missippi! This is a wee bit more accurate: Alabam: Bible belt , although they'll probably reach a point where they realize how many 'Bama dollars are going across the border to other states, Miississippi casinos, Tennessee Georgia lotteries, etc.... Alaska: Not sure here, remember the thread about the ex-con in alaska who won a jackpot? Was that in an Alaska lottery? Hawaii: Those who run the gambling that there is (AHEM!) don't

Winning at Lotto : Luck vs. IntelligenceReply
Regarding poker, years ago there was actually a court case in California about if poker was a game of skill or not, and the decision was it was indeed a game of skill. The reasoning was that if a given number of people played continuously for the same number of hours they would have ben dealt an equal number of good and bad hands and it is how they played those hands that decided the winner. But that's poker with sharp players considering the odds against draeing what they need compared to th

What's with NY Sweet Million??Reply
But who wants to pass up a chance at a million for only a dollar and a dream? My complements to Pattyk. She understands that there is no correlation between the frequency of Sweet Millions jackpots being won, and a better chance to win a million dollars. The infrequent JP's that have been won does not negatively impact the over all odds of winning a million dollars. If more SM tickets are sold, (many more than are currently being sold) the frequency of JP winners will increase. As has b

My digit system for pick-5 or pick-6 lotteryReply
RL-RANDOMLOGIC, This is so simple I can't understand why you cannot seethis. Thanks so much for not giving up on me! I can finally see the light (and the colours!) Hallelujah! My only concern is that if too many people have the fog lifted from their eyes as I have, given the parimutuel setup of many of the lotteries, as jackpots dwindle, more and more people might stop playing, which could spell the end of the lotteries as we know them. Tell you what - I pledge to do my part

How Many Tickets Per Draw Are Necessary To Win?Reply
BobP All things considered: In my opinion 250 to 500 combinations per draw would be a sweet playing budget to hasten a jackpot. Well for one thing, anyone who could play that many ticket s per draw probably doesn't need to hit a jackpot and is playing just for grins.At an average of 9 draws a month for MM or PP, and the Megaplier or Powerplay meaning $2 per line, a player would be stuck $9,000 the first month playing 500 combinations per draw, assuming that the most common thing per line

TN Pick 5 ending; New game to replace itReply
Finally they are revealing more detail about the game. if you go to the website the splash page will let you click and more info comes up. I guess they are taking the white ball numbers from 1-39 to 1-35 BUT the Tennessee Ball (or whatever) is 1-5. They dont list the prizes or jackpot amounts exept to say it is para-mutuel and that I think the lowest prize is .... wait for it.... a free ticket. Tennessee loves doing that, especially on their scratch offs. They say it is all abou
