Discovery - New PA Raffle Game ChangeReply
Overall payback is the percentage of the sales proceeds paid out in prizes. Alone, it can be deceiving depending on the payout table (ie. lots of large prizes with little in between), but should always be kept in mind when choosing games to play and sizes of wagers. Example, PA Pick 3 odds is 1 in 1000 and pays 500 to 1. On average, for every $1000 taken in, $500 is paid out. $500/$1000 = 50% overall payout. Most lottery numbers games, including Mega Millions and Powerball, are around 50%

jlg69 Since the line generator is RNG based it's possible that the same settings can produce very different results. Example, lets say that everything is set correctly for a jp hit. There may be 10K or more lines that can pass the 13 conditions. If we don't see some sort of hit in 100 lines then the user might be led to believe the program is not working any better than a QP. The Idea behind the slider was to offer a higher quality QP generator without any analysis. Some are

Virginia Lottery's new in-state game awards $1 million, taxes paidNews Story
$1,000,000 Money Ball game being retired Wouldn't it be nice if you won some money, and you received a bonus to pay the taxes on your windfall?

The top prize amount is calculated so that winners actually receive $1 million after the federal and state tax-withholdings. In other words, winners get to actually bank a

Has anybody noticed? (Tx 2Step)Reply
You're right. We could spend hours posting ideas and never come to a definitive answer. All lotteries are like a game of Family Feud. We asked 100 people to name their favorite drink. Top five answers are on the board. BING Why is there never a consensus 100% answer? Because people have their own opinions, ideas, thoughts, and preferences. Same with anything. If we asked 100 people how to cook a steak, we'd get 85 different answers. Some would use a streak rub. Some would marinade it.

Playing the Lottery Like a Roulette Table
Would like to hear thoughts from others about playing all the high paying jackpot games in their state ... or just picking only one jackpot game and hitting it hard with all your lottery dollars. OK ... for example let's say you have a lottery budget of $200 for the month ... I imagine most people don't spend that much but some do ... so for now, let's work with the $200 figure. In PA the 6/49 game cost $2 a ticket but you get 3 plays or lines to win the jackpot, there are also other ways
