I'll never win any JackpotReply
This is something I can actually agree with you on. I play a couple of computerized games and I feel my chances to win something is just as hard as when I play PB even though the odds are better.

Superstitions?Reply
I just know that the games I win on are the smaller ones. Jackpots like PB or MM have such high odds, but I have still won in the hundreds in those games. I wish they would shut up though. But once a clerk gave me a tip about the raffle game and said that winners were going to be in the southern part of the state mostly, definitely not in the pan handle and he was right!

Lightning struck twice, twice.Reply
For some people it is a big deal though. I tend to only pay jackpot games and it makes me happy to win something since the odds are so huge.

New Florida Lotto playslips a bother to someReply
No kidding. Especially since I didn't scan anything in there saying that the extra buck or two would increase any lower tier prize that you could win. It just increases the jackpot, which already has extremely high odds. You'd be better off spending the money on another ticket.

Lane's End Stakes - 3/22Reply
Hawthorne's 7th Race looks so strong for # 3 Sole Of The City.... I'm having a hard time figuring out who has a remote chance to beat her. It's a must-bet regardless of odds.

Format for the Ideal Lottery PoolReply
1. 120 million 2. 5-10 3. $2 4. No, and no quick picks. 5. Too little for a pole= 1 Too many= 11 or more I think most of the people in the MY pole believe, that when you were born it was known right there your fate. No matter how big or how small the adventure would be, its going to come. I mean statiscally you can give yourself better odds at hitting, but the odds are already so tremendous. If you are relying on dumb luck, then you better hope one of those people in your grou

what are the odds on this 1?? unreal!!Reply
yes you're right the overall odds are same...what makes it a bit unusual in predicting smth like that is that the expectations for 5 balls to be in one decade and to have 3 repeats + 2 repeats are quite a low % of total combos...low % means it will come out very rarely (the game is performing about the statistical expectations its just that we don't see it too often that we say its unreal)

Pick 5 games easy or not?Reply
Ohio Rolling Cash5 (5/39) overall odds of winning are 1:9, so buying $10 worth of tickets will most likely win something (a match 2 pays $1). Winning something every time he spends $10 can make a player thinks it's easy to match 3 for $10 and at worst break even. The state knows every player want to win something and it's happy to exchange $10 or $1.
