My first try at Ohio RC5 for 2006Reply
My work-in-progress uses something similar, but my parameters(limits) are different than yours.What stood out the most for me was that you allowed all-odds and all-evens on the list.Most everyone else go out of their way to kick those out.

Record $150 million Euro Millions lottery drawing FridayReply
Shalini, I understand you care about your brother. But, on the other hand, I think your brother would have about 40 times better odds of hitting $150M jackpot than you even though one ticket may win it. Good luck to you and your brother!

Record $150 million Euro Millions lottery drawing FridayReply
200 is a bit much.i hope that wasn't in dollars,lol.you can win on 5 or 10 just as much as you could 200 when the odds are as high as they are.....i did that once with powerball for a while.burned through money like it was going out of style.now if i do buy its 5 bucks worth and not hundreds.i should've been slapped out of my misery for doing that and if i had it to do over again i would have most of the money i blew when powerball fever came to tennessee in the summer of 2004.good luck everyone

Surrendering in blackjackReply
Since I can count cards in my head. I never surrender unless needed.Learn to count cards in your head....some think this is cheating. I don't think so...I use it has a way to narrow my odds down to what the next card will be. I'm not always right either. It's also like predicting lotto #'s for the next draw...I have never seen anyone surrender at a casino when I was playing or watching.PP

does 151 million sound goodReply
If it rolls it would be around 25 mil more, depending on exchange rates. I doubt it will roll since this pot is the record for Euromillions. I would say the odds of a rollover would be under 5%. Guess we will know around 2-4pm tomorrow.

prediction board pollReply
Anything is possible... if so, will they stay a member or disappear?What would you do if you hit? I love it when people talk about the odds and getting hit by lightning, etc...I just look at them and say that the ods are certainly a lot better if you played a ticket than if you didn't

mega millions and powerball jackpot pollReply
A lot of people were aiting and waiting for California to come into MegaMillions.When it did, they added more numbers, top and bottom, and the odds increased from 140,000,000:1 to 176,000,000:1. Whoop tee do. The US should take a hint from Spain's El Gordo and have a lot more winners instead of one mega-winner.

mega millions and powerball jackpot pollReply
I picked maybe. It's all the luck of the draw. It is hard to predict which one will break its previous record first - on the one hand, Powerball generally has the better chance of rolling over on any drawing because of its lower sales to odds ratio, but on the other hand, the Mega Millions jackpot does not have to survive as much drawings to get to a new record.

New Jersyans: What to do with Pick 6.Reply
So what you're saying is there should only be one game that can set you for life, and such a game should be the one that has astronomical odds (as opposed to merely exospheric).

I need an opinion....Reply
The term box is a simple way of calling your bet which represents 6 numbers. Therefore, you are playing 240 numbers.Yes, it equals$40! Way too much. If that was a horse at 1:1 odds, no problem. But not a lottery.
