Massachusetts Senate weighing plan to give Lottery 'broad mandate' for online gamesNews Story
If the Massachusetts State Lottery is to continue to thrive and return hundreds of millions of dollars to cities and towns, it must have the ability to move online in some fashion, its executive director said, but it first needs permission from the Legislature to test the World Wide Web's waters. It's critical to the Lottery's future ability to produce revenue that we're allowed to engage clearly changing technology and, to me, what is a very strong change in the commerce pattern that consum

pick-4 testReply
Adobea78 I posted these for their straight hits but from winsums post they don't show advantage when applied to several states as some had no hits at all. I generated another list of 576 lines which does around 3x better overall but I can't see any real value in a list that size for a pick-4 game. The program is part of a pre-draw tool I had hoped would reduce any matrix down to a fraction of it's original size and still maintain a large percentage of prizes which it seems to do q

The secret to winning lottery with Scratch off'sReply
I have some input on the theories posted here First of all, I do not believe winning the lottery is fate. You can't play if you don't win and if you buy more tickets you stand more of a chance to win. It can only take $1 but if you play more your odds are better.

That means some will win, but many more will lose and more money wi

No $50K bonus for Washington retailer who sold winning lottery ticketNews Story
If you're Nirbhai Singh, 36, who started out delivering for Pizza Hut and now owns a couple of 7-Elevens, what else can you do but be philosophical about losing out on $50,000? It was his West Seattle store at 9200 35th Ave. S.W. that sold the winning $157 million ticket in Tuesday's Mega Millions jackpot. The winner has yet to come forward.
