Duplicate ticket winners - same store - Texas 2 StepReply
I see this occasionally with Cash 5. A player plays the same numbers multiple times so if the jackpot is split between players they get a larger amount. I don't remember someone doing this with Texas 2 Step before though. This is a funny game. I play every draw, and last year I won $5 for the whole year. $5. I'm doing better this year but man, for the odds this game has, it's not too easy to win.

is anyone making an income from lotteryReply
Jimmy read a book about number statistics with opinions about lottery players and now believes he's an expert on lottery play. We could tell him another thousand time the odds against winning lottery prizes are on the back of play slips and on state lottery websites and he'll ignore that another thousand times. There are thousands of example of how lottery players play lottery games on this website, but he still can't comprehend why some players might pay a buck for the picks of another player t

is anyone making an income from lotteryReply
I said the jackpot is a fixed $25,000 with an aggregate of $250,000 and the WVA player won four or five jackpots and had multiple tickets on the winning combo each time. Didn't you know players can wager on the same combo multiple times and win up to $250,000 in each drawing? But of course you will tell us the most likely way this WVA player won multiple lotteries was by designing a winning system. He won his prizes playing the same game in one year. Just based on the fact he had more th

Sweet Million or MM or PB?Reply
What's even more unique about it is this; Of the two drawings when there were multiple top prize Sweet Million winners, in one of those drawings, one player played the same line TWICE, and therefore won 2 million dollars. Funny thing is, they bought one ticket in one store, and a second ticket in a different store located on the very same street. Even though it happened about 50 miles from the town I live in, I've never been able to find out if the person did that on purpose, or if it was simply

Do tickets bought for consecutive drawings ever win the top two prizes, in Mega Millions or PowerbalReply
Some state lotteries have a page where they show some of the winners holding the large check with the amount they won and I saw a MM check written for $250,003 and a PB check for $1,000,007. Saw a few lesser prize checks with amounts that indicated either there was more than one winning line on the same ticket or it was a multi-draw that had matched 2 + 1, 1 + 1, or 0 +1 in a previous drawing. Since the jackpot checks are the amount of the annuity or the cash amount, we wouldn't notice if tha

Is there any real way to play these scratch offs? New Roll or what?Reply
$20 tickets are your best bet. I have consistently won the most from them. As far as buying whole rolls, I would not do it too often. I have never gotten more than $240 back from a $300 roll, and the least was $120. I also got $135 and $180. I have won $75 and $150 on single $5 tickets, numerous $100 winners on $20 tickets, as well as $250, $300 twice, and the biggest so far was $500. Those were all single ticket purchases. As a new lottery player, look around on this site. There is much helpful

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
I must have bought about 30 of those $2 Clubs since they came out. Have not won a single cent off of any of them.... That ticket is very deceiving too, there have been many times where the player cards have repeats. Makes the person scratching it think that they won something, only to find out, none of those repeated cards match the Your numbers so you don't win anything ....Any other game out there, if you see multiple #'s or symbols, etc etc you win somehting. That one tricks the playe

7 people from WV winning $2M powerballReply
It could have been one person buying seven tickets trying to hit the winning PB number but covered his bets with Power Play just in case he didn't pick the right PB#. I've never understood it but when there are only 5 numbers to pick, some players are so sure they can get all five that they often play them multiple times. I heard of several cases of players doing that and winning less than they hoped for. It happened several times with the local pick5 game in my state before it was changed t

Gold Rush TriplerReply
James, From what I've seen, I think this Krueger guy, along with Marsh and Massengale, are the only multiple winners. The 2 big winners from Fruitland Park were different people, and the same for Kissimmee--the Kissimmee winners were from a 7-11 and Publix right next door, but as far as I know they weren't won by the same person. But either way---it's CRAZY that there have been multiple winners! I mean, Marsh wins 11 million on 2 different BDB's, Massengale with 2 multiple million dollar wins

Millions in Pick 3Reply
Pick-3 is still the most played online game and is second only to scratch-off tickets in sales. It would take a $2000 bet to win $1 million and the bets have been made many times but I don't recall reading where any of them won. Five figure payoffs are more common than we think because a $20 bet will get you that. Six figure wins are more common in pick-4 games but people have won over $100,000 playing the pick-3 too. It's possible a winner could cash in the tickets at multiple locations befo
