EXCLUSIVE: Weeks-long computerized draw error prevented many DC Lottery tickets from winning a prizeReply
I have a bit of sympathy about that response that players were getting from the lottery, mainly because the lotteries all get accused by angry gamblers daily of being rigged. So the handful of messages they might have received as a result of this drawing error were likely dwarfed by the daily onslaught of similar messages that do not have a shred of proof. You really can't expect a customer service rep to sort all that out, and the result is a canned response, because most of the time what they

Long-time Kentucky lottery player wins $25,000 a year for life Lucky for Life prizeReply
His dedication extends all the way back to when sales first began for Lucky for Life on March 22, 2015. He consistently plays the same two sets of numbers Notes : On July 19, 2021 Lucky for Life changed from a twice-weekly game (Mon., Thu.) to daily drawings, and the drawings were changed from traditional lottery ball drawings conducted by the Connecticut Lottery to computerized drawings conducted by MUSL in Iowa. Maybe not, but considering how much he's spent over the years at $2 each

same Ga. Cash 3 number hitting straight 3 days in a row all midday?
so on 9/17/25 239 dropped midday and on 9/18/25 239 dropped midday and on 9/19/25 239 dropped midday What are the odds on that? welp they are 1 in 1,000,000 Why? once a number hits on Day 1, the chance it repeats exactly on Day 2 is 1/1000, and repeats again on Day 3 is another 1/1000. Multiply 1/1000 x 1/1000 = 1 /1,000,000 Rule-of-thumb: you d expect a three-day identical run about once every 2,700 2,800 years of daily midday draws Research it for yours

With regard to the last paragraph, I remember watching the DC Lottery drawings when they used balls. It was much more entertaining the first time I saw the computerized drawing on TV, I stopped watching the drawings on TV. Even though I live in a RNG lottery state, I go onto the Texas Lottery website every once in a while to watch their live drawings.

Interesting! But when this happens with a computerized draw, we have people screaming that the state needs to go back to ball drawings because they must be cheating with the RNG. Humans are very good at spotting patterns. It takes far more data (or physical evidence) to imply an unfair drawing.
