$1 million Mega Millions prize won in Iowa will expire in two weeksReply
.......but playing them every drawing rain or shine is equivalent to flushing money down the toilet. I am tempted to say the same thing for smokers and drinkers - but I will just let them enjoy their preferred pass time When am playing jackpot games, I have my eyes fixed on the lower tier prizes, like 5K, 10K, 50K etc because the odds of winning are better - but not solely the jackpot. I think people who play Just the jackpot in states that allow that, perfectly for the flushing mo

New York man claims state's biggest Mega Millions prize at $476 millionReply
That's all true, but note that I said IF you have a fixed AMOUNT to spend on the lotto (and I should have added for clarity, you want to maximize your EXPECTED return, which includes winning the jackpot), then it makes sense to buy more $2 plays than a less number of $3 plays, because the jackpot gets so high that it contributes more to the expected return than the non-jackpot wins. This can be proved mathematically. I understand that since the odds are so low to win the jackpot, you might

Powerball/Mega Millions Winner Combination for the next Draw.Reply
Your observation point is very interesting. I will take your suggestion into account. The reason for my question was due to the mathematical interpretation that Stefan Mandel gave to his strategies on how to choose the correct combinations or patterns to ensure within them the following winning numbers. Below I leave you a journalistic quote from that time about what he said. If a player picked 6 numbers in a 49-ball lottery, their odds of winning were 1 in 13,983,816. If they picked

How exactly are lottery scratchers numbered in CAReply
No, I was referring to multiplying the book number by 30. If the first number is the book number you would multiply by 30 because in your example there were 30 tickets per book. In Michigan and a lot of other states the numbers on the bottom are xxx-xxxxxxxx-xxx with the first set being the game number and the second set being the book number and the third set is the ticket number in that particular book. So in a lot of states You multiply the overall odds by the overall number of prize

Asked ChatGPT How To Win the LotteryReply
When asked how to win the lottery, ChatGPT said, Buy more tickets: The more tickets you buy, the greater your chances of winning. and Join a lottery pool: Joining a group of people who buy tickets together can increase your chances of winning. And then CMoore was told they were 100% wrong after saying Joining a group and buying more tickets doesn't necessarily mean your chances are better. From there it went to assuming the tickets are all different , but if one ticket is bought, to im

Asked ChatGPT How To Win the LotteryReply
Coin Toss, it's all semantics as Stack said. I don't think anyone disagrees each set has a 1/292 million chance. And only one set is going to be drawn. Apparently this pool is telling players they have a 1/292 million + 1/292 million + 1/292 million + 1/292 million + 1/292 million + 1/292 million, etc. Then they are adding all the ones and reducing the fraction. Mathematically reducing the fraction doesn't change or eliminate any of the 292 million sets. It sounds good, but the
