The mathematics department at a major university had a raffle. The price of the tickets was a bit spendy at $10 a piece but the prize was tantalizing: an infinite amount of money paid to the winner for an infinite amount of time. With such a prize on the line, the tickets sold like hotcakes, and the department soon raised thousands of dollars. When the winner was announced, he gleefully came down to the department office to claim his prize. He found the department head, presented his winning

What does everyone think about private raffles?Reply
I personally don't care for them. Much rather take that chunk of money for one raffle ticket and play a bunch of pick 3's instead.

Oregon Lottery to start new raffle gameReply
Glad to see Oregon giving a raffle a try. You can see how the lower ticket price affects the number of $1 million prizes offered. However, the odds are similar to other raffles: someone buying $20 worth of tickets will have a 1 in 125,000 shot at winning $1 million.

What does everyone think about private raffles?
I have learned about a private raffle where I can win a house with odds that give me an 87% higher chance of winning the house than $10,000 from my local lottery. What does everyone think about private raffles? What kind of experience does or has everyone had with private raffles? It seems like an awesome game but i wanted to check you guys take on it.

Pennsylvania Lottery Millionaire Raffle resultsReply
Sorry, it just doesn't make sense to me. AFAIK, you've never won a million dollars, playing any game. If you don't want to risk $20 to have the best odds of winning a million dollars, I don't see how it makes a raffle a bad game. Don't play it then.

PA Lotto Millionaire RaffleReply
i tried this raffle in december and not getting into it again...the $20 per ticket is not cheap...they say that this game offers the best odds at $1 mill (1:125,000).. well it does but it does so at $20 per ticket...and personally i dont like computer games and games that you cannot pick your own numbers...but i'm willing to bet that it will sell out again

PA Lotto Millionaire RaffleReply
That would be awesome to have it everyday, problem is they can barely get the tickets to sell out since other states run this style of raffle. Granted, I'll buy a few, knowing FULL well I wont get nuthin. Its been consistent that its some first time player or a guy rushing in to a gas station that gets these tickets. The true wishers of such wins are left holding a dud.
