Florida shopkeeper accused of taking tourist's lottery winningsReply
The article reads: Farah told him the ticket was worth $600. ''When he looked, nothing came up on the machine,'' said the victim. ''But he printed out this piece of paper that said I had won $600.'' I wonder what date AND time was listed on this 'receipt' for $600 [does anyone have a photo of it that they can upload for us?] I wonder why the vacationing winner didn't also take a photo of this piece of paper before leaving the store for the final time that day. I wonder if the Farahs

What's with NY Sweet Million??Reply
Now I know how you guys felt when I was constantly winning something on SM week after week awhile back, and hardly no one here was winning ANYTHING, not even $3.00. Now I am in the same boat, I have not won anything with my SM QP's for at least a month, it's very frustrating! Today I sent Mom out for my SM QP's, she has been luckier than me with lottery winnings this year so maybe she will come home with a winning SM ticket tonight. I can't wrap my head around how doing a partial pick and let

Winning at NY Take 5Reply
Tomorrow's Thanksgiving, so my wife asked me to pick up a few things at the grocery store today. I decided to take along my big plastic bag full of empty bottles and aluminum cans and cash them in. I'm at the soda can return machine shoving soda cans into it, but it acts up. It spits out soda cans that I bought in that very store, and says cant be redeemed here , it swallows some cans but doesnt give me credit for them, and it printed out a receipt, but it didnt come all the way out of the sl

What's with NY Sweet Million??Reply
Occasionally I wll put ten bucks on PICK4 straight number, the odds are 1 out of 10,000 that I can win $50,000 with a $10.00 bet, I bet that beats the odds of winning $50,000 on a slot machine, and a slot player spends much more money than $10.00 trying to win the big jackpot on the slots. I didn't know that the SM winner also won a lotto jackpot, isn't that something? A long time ago I posted that my one of my neighbor's relatives won a lotto jackpot twice, once in the Bronx, and once in Mah

Well Jacal, you're a tad late..... Ya see, I was in Geneseo Friday morning where I cashed in the SM ticket I bought on Thursday (in Corning NY) and then hit the Geneseo Wegman's for $5 of Take5. Then it was on to Syracuse where I stopped at another Wegman's for five more bucks of Take5. Headed east on the Thruway and stopped in Albany for dinner. We checked out the NY Football Giants training camp at U Albany, and then put the hammer down for The Hudson Valley. Until last Thursday, I was n

Attention State Lottery Officials - Here's What The Players WantReply
For Arizona: No pre-draws $1 per ticket cost not $2 for some games with small jackpots No computer RNG draws. Ridiculous. Use a ball drop machine Get rid of half the scratcher games. Way too many of them

Controlling The Lottery Balls With Your MindReply
It's been years since I've visited the site/posted. I have to get in on this convo. I believe in positive thinking. I'm presently emersed in The Magic of Believing, The Secret and The Tenth Insight. Each relate in a sense. All deal with the mind and visualization. The poster that said you have to get into the machine (or something like that) may have a point. I do believe in the power of positive thinking. Tonight, when I go to bed (which is the only time I have time to practice visualization),

Lotto TexasReply
All Texas games use mechanical ball machines. Lotto Texas uses solid balls that drop and the other games use hollow balls that rise to the top of the machine. The jackpot rolled again, for the 54th time, extending the record run. Cash value is more than twice the odds. The odds are 1:25,827,165. I checked the latest estimated jackpot calculation document and it shows that the sales per draw have been in the range of 3 to 3.4 million, usually higher for the Saturday draws. Given those numbers

Indiana man says store cost him $11.5M lottery jackpotReply
Amazed at the number of people that have never procrastinated or had other events get in the way of their doing something. I have missed lottery draws a few times myself by waiting too late. I'd remember to buy early for a while afterwards, but I still sometimes remember I haven't gotten that ticket yet late on a drawing night. Some even failed to comprehend that the gentlemean had been lied to about the machine being down. A respectable business will post their lottery operating hours
