It can be shown statistically, if last year is typical for the occurance of starting jackpots, that one would expect a starting jackpot to be won about every two years. However last year is not representative, since the odds have been changed. I would expect that it would t

quick pick or your own numbersReply
The Main reason that Quick-Picks work has nothing to do with Luck if you read the back of the playslips for the Odds ( for example here in the FL Fantasy 5 the Odds are 1 in 376,992 ) and compare it too the City population which is obviously greater than the odds your definitely going to have a winner.In most cases several winners in fact in a 1 month period there were an average of 2-3 winners in our Fantasy 5.So since our population is much greater than 376,992 you will almost always have wi

Probability of a Rollover in Powerball.Reply
These figures are determined by a Poisson distribution which is well known to model random distributions of finite, if large numbers, of spaces. This distribution is appropriate since there is a finite probability that someone will buy a ticket number that has already been purchased. As more tickets are purchased, the probability of buying the same set of numbers as one that is already covered becomes increasingly higher.In my figures I report only those probabilities that are greater than
