Creating a Line at the Convient StoreReply
Sometimes when one feels the need to play additional numbers after tickets have been filled out, its better Karma to leave the line pay for what was scanned by previous filled out tickets and fill out new ones with the numbers,( U might actually think twice and that has worked in my favor also BY NOT PLAYING) Quick Picks in additional to another order are okay no sweat for the clerk but sometimes it is IN-Conconvient to the purpose of other people in line..If theres no one around and its u and t

Bar codes at the bottom of lottery ticketsReply
Every lottery in every state uses codes on the tickets. When you puchase your ticket, the numbers you chose (or the quick pick generated by the lottery terminal) are transmitted to a central computer, which records the numbers and creates a unique ID number. That ID number is transmitted right back the the lottery terminal, and the lottery ticket is then printed, including both the numbers you chose and the ID generated by the central computer. All of that happens in maybe an eighth of a sec

what are the odds
If I play random numbers on pick3, quick picks for example, for a $500 prize: what are the odds if I pick 10 numbers to play day and night for 14 days? 1 in 3.57? If I play 10#s the odds are 1:100 , correct? and then by letting the machine roll out 28 numbers against my set of 10 does that mean divide 100/28=3.57 or 1 in 3.57 ? (if my 10#'s are the same throughout the 2 week period)

Pick-Quickpick QuestionReply
Hi JKING Although Texas uses a centralized computer to generate quick picks, ball machines are used to generate winning combinations. However, there is some evidence (meeting transcripts) that GTECH has capability to analyze quick pick combinations. I don't know exactly what the data is used for. They can't know in advance what the winning combinations will be, so, I don't know if their studies impact on the drawings and payouts. As for computer drawings. suggest you run a search. You

Pick-Quickpick QuestionReply
There are really not all that many manufacturers around the world of online lotto machines. Just a handful. I've heard it called an incestuous industry by those on the inside, for that reason. Things are certainly a lot different from the 70s and 80s, when lotto machines first made their appearances, but back when they were first created there was no such thing as a Quick Pick. The back-end systems for the lottery industry are mainly accounting-type systems, not systems that run the front-

A big difference in the two types of pools is that with the office pool you can pick your own numbers and play as many sets as you like. The lottery pool of 10 sets are the same as Quick Picks. It's like the famous 'box of chocolates,' you never know what you will get. Getting a tenth of whatever the lottery pool ticket wins might not be all that great. If you won $150, you would have to split it 10 ways, or $15 each. But, swapping $1 for $15 isn't all that bad. I don't know exact

New Powerball / Mega Millions SurveyReply
Interesting idea, but I would have a number of questions, such as: Is this an actual 'pool' created by the lottery with you and another 9 entrants, who all have the same set of 10 tickets? If so, what if you were to receive a set of 10 tickets only distributed to 4 other people, does 50% of the prize remain unclaimed and get put back into the lottery? Say you were the last one to purchase lottery tickets before the sales closed. They're rarely going to have ticket sales be a perfect multiple
