Quote: Definition and Concept are not different in this case because what you described was Handicapping not Gambling Handicapping is a method used in Gambling .The concept if you insist is playing games of chance so adding the money part would be the definition playing games of chance for money but there still basically the same.Like I said, that's just a difference of opinion on semantics. Everybody in the world knows what gambling is. It's what you do when you go to Las Vegas.Quote

Powerball... off-the-wall theories...Reply
there would be many variables to consider in a multi-dimensional approach to the reverse engineering of each draw and the numbers it ultimately produced at a specific moment in time. since we are dealing with mechanical machines and 53 or 42 celluloid or rubber balls in each...we might be dealing with such variables as estimated humidity in iowa within the studio (the drawing site) at the moment of the draw date. what can affect the tides would certainly be suspect as affecting the statistical o

NY Lotto: 25 years of ripping off winnersReply
Tables are based on total possibilities of the draw, not on actual ticket sales. In a 6/48 game there are 12,271,512 different 6-number combinations possible. If one of each possible ticket is sold, one ticket will hit the jackpot, which pays $500,000, representing 4.07% of the amount bet. There will be 252 tickets hitting 5 of 6, each paying $957 (on average - these are pari-mutuel payouts, but the numbers come as averages from the Indiana Lottery Commission) giving a total payout of $241,164,
