Pennsylvania Cash 5 Fever July PromotionReply
cash 5 will really be jumping with this promo. i got five QP for tonight and didnt get $50 but i rather have the jackpot. its really smart for the Pa lottery to have that CONGRATS statement on the actual cash 5 ticket. i remember a promo back a few years when the machine used to SING when you won $10 instantly. i cant wait for two cracks at the pick3. dont forget to get your raffle tix, cross them fingers. GL all.

Automatic Lottery Machines - safe?Reply
That's tough to say. I'm not sure how they could tie your info with a winning ticket that the machine spits out, but I suppose it's possible. The machine would have to have some sort of hard drive or memory that's pretty large to hold a lot of personal data. Maybe you should e-mail your lottery commission about this. See what they come up with for an answer.

If Quickpicks are random like the Mechanical Lottery Ball MachineReply
Well this is weird, I just got back from buying 3 Hoosier Lotto tickets for Saturday. One was a self pick, the other two are QPs. The funny thing is on the two QPs I have 4 of my self pick numbers appear plus a couple of other shared numbers. So I have 6 numbers across three slips that are repeated once. So what do you guys think? Should I get one more ticket with all the 6 repeated numbers or is the machine really just screwing around with me?

So much for anonymity. Illinois terminalsReply
ttech10: Maybe it's good news the terminals in Texas [at least in Kerrville, Texas] are so tempermental and unreliable anyone who's tried to use them once ignores them and does his ticket buying in the convenience stores as God intended. They could plaster that machine with nekkid pictures, addresses and phone numbers of all the local promiscuous ladies who want company and nobody would notice. I've never seen any information about winners on the rack/cabinets in the convenience stores.

This is why I hate the new PA system. I played a bunch of Cherry Slots since they came out, and I always save the losers. Well I grabbed a handfull from my car to check them in a machine. Turns out I had a bill symbol for $40 in my trash pile. The bill looks too much like the HOT and BAR symbol and totally missed it.. I will never throw away any new ticket without processing it in the machine first.. I agree with the one guy in the other post. We need a smartphone app to scan our tickets. Guess

Arkansas Lottery partners with grocery chain on vending machinesReply
It's several feet away from the counter where customers also can purchase lottery tickets through a sales clerk. They don't have that option at any of my stores....machine only. When those machines first came out I hated them....I've gotten use to them, but still don't like that fact that you can only purchase the ticket..... no megaplier or powerplay option. Lots of time I'll just go to a gas station to buy. BTW, our machines are only in grocery stores that I've been aware of.

The Pick 5 Jackpot Winning Thread--Get Your Numbers!!Reply
That is the problem with playing a FULL BALANCED WHEEL.You will have the winning numbers on your full wheel strings, but can you afford to play the full wheel by yourself.You can create a 5 combination wheel for any lottery game by picking the numbers on your fist line and letting the machine choose the other 4 combination.Some people call it a partial quick pick, but it is a mini wheel to trick the machine to give a winning combination.On june 13, 2010 i won $533.50 on new york take 5 with a mi

I prefer the machines to the slow as hell counter rolls. But its really easy to feed money in and lose track. The best advice is you cant force a big winner from scratch offs. Here I am playing every day and not 1 $500 winner. 6-7 years ago I played 1 time a week and hit $100-$500 even more then I do now lol. I realize all my decent winners have come 1st or 2nd ticket out of the machine, as if its meant to be.
