$291 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot enters top 25 listReply
I couldn't help not to burst out laughing when I saw a headline story on Philly.com Mega Million jackpot 2nd biggest in 2 years thanks to lousier odds'. The sub headline of the story validates MM strategy is working. Recent changes seem to be helping the lottery game compete with powerball . Usually it's MM which is the after thought, now it's PB. I think at the end of the day, players really don't care about the crazier odds then before with MM, al lthey care about is

$291 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot enters top 25 listReply
Interesting. The odds for the top prizes are steep enough that if the number of winners is even slightly off from what probability suggests, that using those numbers for a simple calculation of how many tickets were sold can be wildly inaccurate. I'm surprised that the number of 0+1 winners results in such alarge error. For some reason, 3 must have been an unpopular choice this time around.

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Just bought a bunch of each ticket and the Chocoate Covered 7s actually smell like chocolate! Good luck on the new games. Theyre pretty fun. I just hit a 1 in 1600 odds $30 win on the $3 Diamond Payout. You get to play 3 games in 1 ticket on that game. Its probably has the most entertainment value out of the tickets that debuted today.

Do you feel like you even have a chance anymore?Reply
I hear ya on that one. That old saying, You've got to be in it to win it. But I am just looking at it from a standpoint of trying to pick your own numbers and eliminate as many as possible to increase your chances. Theres always the jackpot odds of 1 in 258,890,850. Good luck tonight!

How much would you wager on A 1 Billion dollar Jackpot at one Time ?Reply
I agree. I don't wager based on Jackpots. It's the odds. I'd wager the same amount on a Billion Dollar Jackpot as I do on the Starting Jackpot. Based on the odds. Since a bigger Jackpot doesn't make it any more likely for me to win, why would I bet more?

North Carolina: 12/1 - 12/31/2013Reply
well said and I agree again, playing online is the only chance you have of making the odds better and work in your favor. playing in the store is almost a waste of time unless you know the one pair and play it for $40...I am not one of those play 40 numbers for only $40 type of people.

I remember when MM jp rose to $650M in 2011. I spent $34 and won nothing. And that was when the jackpot odds was sensible. I wouldn't buy more than 2 lines if any at all.

Which multi-state Jackpot game Will Be Played More Often ?
Though the Mega Ball odds are much harder... the pot size will out pace power ball in size .

$257 MILLION: Mega Millions jackpot expandsReply
Lottery games like Mega Millions and Powerball are worth playing when the jackpot is worth more than $100 Millions. The odds of winning are too high to play for less.

Keno method and strategiesReply
This is a good test for any Keno game if the numbers are trully random. For every 22 numbers expect from 0-10 numbers at most!!! I am always trying to reduce the odds somehow in order to increase the winnings to 12-14 numbers. Very diffucult though!!! Any recommendation are welcome...It doen't have to be on the next draw, consider it for the next 15-20 draws with the 22 pool of the same numbers... I believe this is a method to crack the thing...
