New England's 'Lucky for Life' game to gain second lifetime prizeReply
sure, the 2nd prize will now have some appeal. however they greedily expanded the field from 40-43 and the lucky number from 21-43 which pretty much eliminates any chance of winning it. that along with hefty 2.00 price tag further makes this a bad play for anyone over the age of 40. you would be better off trying to snag the 2nd place prize in powerball than this. without substantiated proof it seems most players who play these types of games are over 40. this game has not caught on at all in th

Poll: Michigan Mega Millions
With the in-state Michigan game rolling over for more than 6 months and not even reaching $20,000,000 , too much money is leaving Michigan through the multi-state game. Before Michigan got into the Mega Millions game it would take less than 10 draws to get the 6/xx Michigan games up to 20 Million. Since the Big Game/Mega Millions started, it has doubled the number of states that participate and skyrocketed the odds. Yes, the jackpots are bigger and they grow faster but with so many sta

National lottery, or 3d major game?
From time to time, there has been talk of a national lottery. This subject has just been brought up again. Whether it would supplement or replace Mega Millions and Powerball is anyone's guess. I would prefer that California, NY, and Texas break away from MM and form the country's third major lottery jackpot game. Once Florida finally approves a multi-state game, it should go with MM (even though players in south Florida would still have to travel hundreds of miles to play PB).

Sorry Boss, but I've got to respectfully disagree with ya on this one! Lotto South has had the opportunity to prove itself, but it doesn't seem to be doing well. Consider the following information: REPORT OF THE AUDIT OF THE KENTUCKY LOTTERY CORPORATIONhttp://www.kylottery.com/annual_report/2005-2004KYLotteryaudit.pdfIn September 2001, the KLC introduced Lotto South as a replacement game for Lotto Kentucky.

Mastering ...Caution: Touchy subjectReply
First of all, pick3forSC (hope the spelling's right), thank you for an excellent post...these are concrete things people can play around with and we appreciate the time you took to make that post.Secondly, I just thought of an idea about 'multi state' bettors and this thread about making money as a group.Trying to create a magic system combining all systems of such a large group of players is nearly impossible. But if you know that, for example, MemberX has been extremely hot in the state of IL

In this particular case, someone did look at the sales figures but

question about new power and mega changesReply
I sort of agree with that thought, but the way I look at it, the job of the big multi-state games is not to make lots of people rich, it's to create enormous jackpots. In my opinion, the role of individual state Pick 6 lotto games is to make several people rich, not MM or PB. If a state is too small to consistently generate $1 million+ jackpots, then a few states should band together, and LOTTO South is the perfect example of that.This is also the reason that I firmly believe every state shoul
