Illinois picks right week to start selling tickets online
But online sales still dwarfed by retailer sales
With a record $540 million Mega Millions jackpot in play, Illinois picked the right week to become the first state in the nation to sell lottery tickets online. Others are watching closely to see if the new approach pays off and whether the state takes the next big step: launching online poker, blackjack and other casino games.
It took only three minutes for the first online lottery ticket to sell once the system went live at 7 a.m. Sunday.

Welfare & Jackpot Lottery Winners
...food stamps, welfare, and housing assistance are a mere 3.8% of GDP. And that's down from 2000. Since the introduction of welfare, the percentage compared to GDP has usually been on the decline.
Actually, Chaosx, your numbers are just a little off.
It's not 3.8% of the GDP, it's actually 12% of the GDP. -- http://www.usgovernmentspending.com/fed_spending_2012USrn
And it hasn't been in decline since 2000, it's been on the increase and in fact, since 2008 it's been skyrocketing.

Cash Vs Annuity Payments
I am perplexed too see how many people have voted against choosing annuity option, which I see clearly a better choice.
Some arguments (as in February 2012)
1. choosing cash option means big reduction of starting capital, cash option is undervalued by 5-10% than it should, it depends on jackpot amount.
1.1 choosing annuity means lottery will need to allocate more capital for payment of increasing annuities, in time total amount of money gets bigger easier than with cash.
1.2 the valu

9 in Play Strategy for Pick 4 All States Players
I'm the first to admit that I have never played all states online -- except on paper here at LP -- so I don't know what the payouts are, and just what it takes to turn a profit each week. But I do know it's about half the cost of playing online as it is to play your one state lottery.
Ok...So what if you are a new Pick 4 All States online player and want to get some hits each week. And what if you played 9 numbers for 7 days, e

Illinois Lottery hopes to sell tickets online in '3 to 4 months'
Illinois Lottery Superintendent Michael Jones said Monday that he hopes the state will begin selling lottery tickets online in the next three to four months.
Officials have long wanted to take the lottery to the web, and the path was cleared Friday with the release of a U.S. Department of Justice legal opinion that supports state-regulated online gambling.
(See Ruling by Justice Dept. opens a door on online gambling, Lottery Post, Dec. 25, 2011.)
State lawmakers in 2009 approved a massi
