The number 658 will come soon to Florida. I'm hoping based on some really strange coincidental events that transpired today. Earlier today I was trying to find a VA hospital nearby. I even mentioned it to a close friend of mine earlier this week. Eventually my search turned out nicely. In fact, The street the clinic was on was two blocks away. lol (new to the area) Here's the strange part: Just a few minutes ago a friend calls me who lives close by. I proceed to tell her the good news abou

Billion dollar lottery in March
http://www.forbes.com/sites/kellyphillipserb/2014/01/21/warren-buffett-offers-1-billion-for-perfect-march-madness-bracket/ Today, Warren Buffett had tongues wagging about basketball. The billionaire, who ranks 4th on Forbes list of top billionaires, with an estimated worth of $53 billion, wants to make you an offer: he ll give you $1 billion for a perfect March Madness bracket. Nope, that s not a typo. Buffett, together with his company, Berkshire Hathaway, are offering $1 billion to an

How is powerball changing?Reply
It seems that those who run the lotteries nationwide are just coming up with ways to squeeze an extra $1 out of the players. Since Northstar took over the Illinois lottery I don't think there's a draw game that hasn't been affected. Here's a prime example, Lucky Dy Lotto (Pick 5, 5/39) has an option for EZ Match........another dollar gets you another set of five numbers........if your firdst set matches any of them you win $1 to $500. The catch? The odds against winning $500 are 210,000 to

$297 MILLION: Mega Millions jackpot raised again before tonight's drawingReply
rcbbuckeye's post (https://www.lotterypost.com/news/269858/3416408) brought this back to my mind. Unless things have changed, the new $5 game I know of has been in development since 2011 (possibly sooner). Hybrid game format - instant scratch off (retailer) with draw game component (online only) It will feature a base 65% payout (some states have higher) Proposed $1 million prize odds of 1 in 905,000 (either online draw or game show where random audience steps on money squares on a pyrami

Was wondering how many MM or SLP ticket do you guys get if you guys pplay? I know the odds improvement for draw games diminishes after 20 tickets, where 1 additional ticket will improve your odds of winning by less than 1%. After 100 tickets, you are stuck at 99% and goes fractional. Currently using Scratcher budget to play these draw games with resounding jackpots. Last night I went the extra mile to buy 10 Diamond Millionaires, did not turn out good. #18 - 27 3 out of 10 were winne

Was that the official concession speech from Mega Millions?Reply
Do the math.. A $2 PB ticket is odds of 1:175mil A $2 MM ticket is odds of 1:258mil/2=1:129mil BOTH are Virtually Impossible. State lottery is about $1,300,000 after taxes with 1:7milor 1:3.5mil for a $2 ticket. It's the first Mil that counts the most. Buy me a piece of land, buy me a house, buy me a car and I'm set with the extra cash. I will be in all of them though.

$257 MILLION: Mega Millions jackpot expandsReply
Doesn't sound like you have a lot of experience with scratch games. Most scratch games have odds of 1-in-3 to 1-in-4 and even the $1 games (which I never play) have odds of 1-in-5. But these basic stats are not the whole story. Scratch games are different from all other lotto/draw games. They do not follow the same rules of probability and randomness that you would expect. Scratch game prizes are not random, they are a predetermined pseudo-random schedule. Do you know what minimum pack val

$257 MILLION: Mega Millions jackpot expandsReply
Any advantage for store clerks is virtually meaningless, and the biggest advantage is in games that concentrate payouts in small prizes. Games that offer bigger prizes offer lower oddds of winning the modest prizes that, on average, occur frequently enough to offer any predictability. I've hardly done an extensive search, but in NY the scratch games with the best chances of winning may have odds of about 1 in 8 to win $1. That means that, on average, you can expect 12 winners in each pack of
