It's time the lottery needs to stop releasing a person name and picture when a big win is won!Reply
It's the winner's life that is at stake. Statistics show you're being overly dramatic.

Until then, however, it's nothing more than hyperbole. After this thread was started, I've done a lot of reading and research on lottery winners killed ; I came up with these

Player sues Oregon Lottery, charging video poker game riggedNews Story
The Oregon State Lottery's rigged video poker games have cost players $134 million, a man claims in a class action lawsuit. Lead plaintiff Justin Curzi claims the video poker machines' auto-hold feature misleads players about how to increase their odds of winning a hand. The auto-hold feature recommends playing strategies, and allows players to automatically discard and draw new cards with a single button, according to the complaint. Thus, relying on the auto-hold feature is the easies

Math Police for State's using Computer DrawsReply
COMPUTER DRAWINGS.... WIN D et al, Gentlemen, your enlightened discussion of this topic serves to highlight the concerns players have concerning this matter.

But let's separate your two different analysis: 1. location of top prize tickets 2. identification of winning tickets within a pack 1. As far as locating where top prize tickets are, does the kno

Do you sign your tickets?Reply
What is scary is how many people believe their photocopies will be accepted by the lottery as proof they own it in the event something happens to their ticket. If i had a large winning ticket i would still make a copy, but i would in no way expect my photocopy without the original to serve as validation in order to claim the prize or serve as proof that i am the rightful owner of the ticket because of the following Hoosier Lottery states: A ticket is the only valid proof for play and the o

How interested are you REALLY?Reply
Getting back on topic. Can we keep all responses and topics relevant to the OP question? RIP B2B I read the results of the poll wrong. Only 9 people read the book. One person does not like it. That was probably you serge. There were 39 actual VOTES. 2 people are hallucinating and think the Golden Lady is not real. Yes the book has publicity for the software. But it worked because I bought it. AND i USE it. And I like it. I do push the envelope using excel also, but A+ is a great
