PA Raffle Countdown to 500,000 ...Reply
Idaho's Raffle has nine more days to go as well and has 80,984 tickets left. I bought one just to be in it. I'm wondering if they will sell out this year.

States pull the plug on Monopoly Millionaires' ClubReply
Wow that was quick! How about the EuroMillions Millionaire Maker Raffle? They have a Mega Friday next week and 10 people will win 1 million each.

Texas Lottery suspends sales of Monopoly Millionaires' Club gameReply
I would think that the other states set to join in 2015 just slammed on the brakes! I did my own very unscientific research by simply asking anyone I knew (who played the lottery) if they knew how the game worked. Nobody had a clue about anything! Nobody understood the fact that it's a raffle triggered by some one winning the jackpot. Absolutely nobody understood the concept that the potential number of Millionaires Club winners of a million dollars keeps increasing even though the jackpot ha

Input Playing the Various 6-49 GamesReply
To me personally, the odds are where it's at. IMHO, playing the lottery is a sucker bet. It's incredibly hard to win a life changing amount of money. That's why when I play PB or MM, I'm really playing for second place. Because of that, whenever I play, I always buy the Megaplier or Power Play. I also used to play two identical lines on my Sweet Million tickets because the first 5 winners of a JP were NOT pari-mutuel. So if I had all six numbers on both of those lines, I'd have won two millio

Thank you for restating the info, and explaining the indexing aspect. Makes sense, and is reassuring, especially for players in low sales jurisdictions; they have an equal chance of winning the millionaire club raffle.

LottoMetro, I've followed your postings on the MMC game since you seem like you are keeping informed of the details of the game. With regard to the show, has your profitability analysis considered the possibility that whatever network picking up the TV show may have paid for the TV rights which would offset the costs of the show? Also, I wanted to get your thoughts on a second issue....it seems like everyone wants to hold out until the $25MM cap is hit and the number of possible millionair

Interesting observation. Brings into question whether many players understand the $1 million raffle part of the game - if many don't, the MMC game is already doomed, since the raffle is an important aspect of the game to make it standout from other large jackpot (aka top prize ) games that sell at lower price-points. As for unclaimed winners. Will MMC participating states with winners will aggressively seek them out?... On the one hand, not doing so could yield the MUSL and participating stat

Weekly Multi-State RaffleReply
I see that the PA millionaire raffle is back. You going for it Chris? How hard? I'm thinking I'll get 2 tickets when I go there for thanksgiving. That's equivalent of 40 MM lines

True, there have been some unusual occurrences in the lottery. Off the top of my head I recall a few cases where consecutive jackpots were won, a skip, and then another won. People may identify it as hot, cold, streaks, whatever but in the grand scheme of the game they are just short-term fluctuations that average out. I should point out that although the odds were 1 in 60,000ish (I don't have sales yet but thinking circa 900,000), or 1 in 15,000 in the case of 4 tickets for this particular d
