Do You Give Advice About The Lottery?Reply
I only explain to others the probabilities and odds of the game, and stress the importances of studying and analyzing the game. Making an informed and intelligent decision as one would do in other areas of their life before spending any metal on this game.

If I reduce the MM or PB number pool by half and play 3o2e/3e2o...(?)Reply
A lot of people think a winning lottery combination won't be drawn again. When Florida had a 5/26 game all one had to do to be a jackpot winner was to play all the previously drawn combinations in each draw. There were something like 7 jackpot combinations that repeated within this time frame before it became unprofitable. When one applies the birthday paradox to lottery the odds of a winning combination ever repeating is better then you'd think. When it comes to Powerball the odds a

changes you would like to make to existing gamesReply
Higher second and third prizes in our state Lotto. Getting 4 out of 6 and winning $60 is ridiculous. It will never happen, but I liked the 6/49 game before it changed to 6/53, so I wish they'd bring it back. I realize more rollovers mean larger jackpots, but I'd rather have the better odds.

staying with or changing your numbersReply
I wish I could say that I've won enough to pay for my tickets. The game I am referring to has 1:23M odds (6/53 Lotto) so the most I've won is $75 getting 4/6. I think I've won about $300 in over a decade, although I've played other games. Who knows? Maybe I've won millions but remain clueless because my numbers were drawn during one of those pre-tests!

Saving vs PlayingReply
I'm not sure about the assumption that everyone spends a lot of money. I think a lot of people who don't play think that many (most?) of us don't really understand the odds. I see a lot of posts saying overly optimistic things. For most of them I figure people are simply being positive about their chances, but I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who don't really have a clue just how steep the odds are. As far as how much of a difference it would make to invest the money we spend on

What are the Odds: 3 Contractors win 3 of 6 biggest PB & MM Jackpot...Reply
Anyone who has ever won a lottery jackpot has beat those odds better than me, but it doesn't bother me because they probably didn't enjoy playing more than me. I don't mind paying to play, if I did I wouldn't play.

Wisconsin Lottery to hold raffle draw May 1News Story
Raffle-mania speads to Wisconsin as tickets are selling at a rapid pace The Wisconsin Lottery is rolling the dice on a new lottery game called Million Dollar Draw, but with so many states profitting handsomely from the popular style of game, it is hardly a risk at all. It's a big-ticket game with what state lotteries call the best chance to win a million dollars because the odds of winning the jackpot are much better than traditional lotto games like Mega Millions or Powerball. The lo

Little store is a Lotto hot spotReply
That is strange, but I guess lightning can hit the same spot more than once. I know someone who won about 15 mil in the early 90s. They've since gambled most of it away, but I always told myself that I'd never win because the odds of a friend of a lotto winner winning is even slimmer to none, but maybe I have hope. I think I'll win the next big mega millions or powerball
