Does the size and quantity of numbers drawn in a lottery influence the bias of studiesReply
You can't argue with someone who would show up at lottery headquarters dressed as a Georgia peach wearing a T-shirt reading LOs haterz me with a jock strap on his face and expect a discussion that makes sense.

Florida residents can now play online!Reply
I believe smaller wins are just credited back to you, and for any win of a prize requiring a trip to lottery headquarters, you would be handed the winning ticket by a representative and you'd claim the prize yourself in person. So it would be much easier than in-person purchases because you'd never need to visit the store for small wins.

Ohio husband's lottery luck leads to wife's $300,000 winReply
Strange story. He spent 20.00 of his 150.00 for 4 5.00 Cash Words for her and I will go out on a limb here and say he probably was familiar with the game and it's prize structure. She is happy as a clam to get the 4 tickets and scratched them in front of her friends when they were out doing something else that I guess wasn't too exciting. She downloaded the app and was fairly confident she won 300k. She tried calling him to no avail so instead of going home she stayed with her friends which was

Mega Millions is dead in the water. They shot themselves in the foot with this increase. OK, Friday nights numbers were impossible but no one cares because no one is playing it anymore. It is only going up 10 million next Tuesday. watch it only go up 7 million. Players will see that and say I wasn't going to play it anymore anyway because of the 5.00 a line but now for sure I am not playing it with this slow jackpot crawl. There is wholesale panic at Mega Millions lottery headquarters. Heads wil

South Dakota launches mobile lottery ticket cashing for some prizes of up to $5,000Reply
The phone scanner on the KY app is about the same as the scanners in stores. They're function is whether a ticket loses or wins and if so for how much. Online winnings under $601 can be withdrawn from your Fun Club account and deposited directly into your bank account usually in a couple of days. They will mail you winnings or over $601 or you can collect at lottery headquarters. Interesting how lotteries seem to be going in different directions; some want online sales, others don't and som
