Prediction Forum QuestionReply
posting the number multiple times and having it come out straight will increase your pay out and percentage ratio big time. for instance Daniel CFloridaPlay 4Straight Quad1-1-1-11-1-1-1$5,000 times 50 plays = $250,000 it would potentially drive you to the top of the prediction board. Or a predictor might have a strong feeling that a certain number might come out in their state so they post it multiple times for the reward. Same as if you walked into the store and bough

Vermont could become first state to privatize lotteryReply
If you had aggressive sales growth market penetration then you could get an up front payment of $380 million. Vermont belongs to the Tri-State Lottery and Powerball is a multi-state game so there isn't very much the Vermont lottery can do to increase sales without starting their own games. The Lehman Brothers report says Vermont's lottery is run well. It generates $105 million dollars in annual sales, and has profits of $23 million. All of the profits go to the Education Fund. Reard

Randomness of the lotteryReply
I appreciate you sticking up for me. This is no scam, the pattern is real in its integrity. The pattern does exist, but only the names have been changed to protect the INNOCENT, Truth be told, there has never been a more predictable lottery. In fact to look at the 2nd drawing and compare it to the first and not see the pattern one would have to be blind. To be close minded is a sure way of not seeing the pattern or using it to win or increase ones advantage over others. To come against

Which is the Smarter Bet?Reply
The PTB are the ones expecting. Boise's housing market hasn't been hit as hard as some because we're a growing community. New homes are overbuilt here, but sales continue, and they expect the slack to be taken up by spring. If the house ain't worth $400K at the time they transfer it to the winner, then you'd only pay taxes on the actual value. So if you put it on the market and get offers of only $350K then you take the offer and pay taxes on the $350K. Yeah, your profit would be less,

Most lottery players never see big payoffReply
Didn't this article come out last week in The Daily Obvious? State Rep. John Scott, R-Richland, said people take equally risky chances all the time. It's the same choice you make if you want to use alcoholic beverages - you don't have to do it, Scott said. You've got a 401(k)? You're gambling. Got stocks? You're gambling. Spoken like a true politician, who's either putting a hell of a lot of spin on his position, or doesn't have a clue about reality. Sure, people lose mone

Let's play "What if"...
Not exactly a poll, but what if you made a big score on a lottery game, any game, that isn't your favorite game or a game you usually play? Would you switch to that game, would you only play that game, or would you think that was nice and continue to play your favorite game, even though it's never payed you anything close to this kind of win? Let's say you play your state Pick 6 and the prize is usually between 2 and 10 million, but on a whim you play a Win for Life scratcher, and win $5

Found this surfing the web, Interesting article!!Reply
From the article: V. Conclusion Winning the lottery has the potential of being both a blessing and a curse. Every lottery player needs to consider the ramifications of winning before playing the lottery because the option of electing a lump sum distribution may be foreclosed once the ticket is purchased. Immediately after winning, but before claiming the prize, the lottery winner must decide the most effective way of claiming the prize. After collecting a lump sum payout or beginning t

Cheating scratch-offsReply
The odds of winning anything on a single ticket are decreased if you buy 5 tickets from different games, but you increase your odds of getting two higher tier prizes if you go with different games. For example, if you buy 5 tickets from a single game, your odds of getting TWO or more $25 or greater winners is virtually zero. If you buy 5 tickets from 5 different games, your odds of getting TWO or more $25 or greater tickets are better (although still very poor odds, but better than zero).

Carbon Tax on lottery ticket purchace?Reply
Were already overtaxed as it is. How about this if the states keep taxing us we should charge them a fee for purchasing lottery tickets and other things. We already pay a carbon tax when we buy fuel. Where did you come up with this silly poll. I will never pay another cent more for lottery tickets then what they charge now. If however they increase the payouts or odds i might. But I'm not holding my breath for that to happen. who you calling fools

Texas Lottery to add 'Sum It Up' feature to Pick 3 gameReply
We are pleased with the sales numbers for Daily 4 with Sum It Up so far, said Texas Lottery Commission Executive Director Anthony J. Sadberry. Sum It Up will also enhance Pick 3, providing a fun new way for players to win. I was looking at the Texas Lottery website and they have the front pair, back pair, and middle pair option on their Pick-4. You can access digit and number frequencies and they give the results of test draws too. Mr. Sadberry knows how to run a player friendly lottery!
