Enough with this idiotism!
There are no such things as linking quick-pick numbers to something else, so you can win it all. Get over it!I'll tell you more! Faking a winning ticket, that ezmoney has been showing everyone on this site is so easy, you don't even know!How can one person be fooling so many people at the same time! I wonder! You should supposedly be smart people, who use systems to beat the odds.And yet, every night I come here I get to read EzMoney's hallucinations, and your wowS and jeez's as if you belie

Anybody find out the Powerball changes?
Hello All,I think MUSL will shoot themselves in the foot if this goes forward.. If the added money (because of the 25 M cap) is added to the second or third tier prizes than it will be nice, if you hit, but who are we kidding.. in this society everyone playing (ok maybe one ot two percent don't) are shooting for the grand prize.What does this do to games like Hot Lotto? If I can win 2 million as a second prize with lower odds than winning 1 million in Hot Lotto than why buy Hot Lotto?The Mass lo

Anybody find out the Powerball changes?
yeah maybe it is worse varying from customer to customer. BUT i was trying to get the point to vegas PAYOUT. for example some slot machines payout 97%. so im saying if $1,000,000 is bet on a slot machine the casino makes something like 3% on a million dollars and pays out 97% in the long run. but if theres a million bet on the lotto only $500k is paid out. but like the lotto winning big in vegas the odds are against you. you just got to be lucky to win big money.

Anybody find out the Powerball changes?
EZMoney: I want to apologize because I thought you knew the details but perhaps reluctant to share your findings. Anyway, my understanding of the excess jackpot money is that it will be added to each SECOND PRIZE, whatever the base amount for 5/5 is (tentatively called Power Surge .) Second prizes, if the PowerPlay option is exercised, could run in the million$ automatically paid in LUMP SUM. My take is that MUSL believes the BG-MM group set the jackpot odds too high with the maximum second pri

Wanted! Someone who wins consistantly on Pick 4
No one wins consistantly on pick 4....or pick 3. Well...someone may beat the odds repeatedly by 5%, but that is all. Another words, they will still lose money big time. Considering the pathetic payouts with direct hits, you would be better off playing $1 scratch tickets. Well, there are several people on this site that claim their 'program' is a winner. Winner? Loosing 5% less money then they would on 'random' numbers? Unless someone can prove he/she 'broke even', I will never play those games.

PA Super 6 really is dead
If Pennsylvania really wants to supercharge its Super Six lotto, then it should follow Delaware's lead and make it a 6/35 or 6/38 game. Their 6/38 game is fun to play, it's three nights a week (M/W/F)and the money is good for the odds. 69 numbers is too large a number field-- everyone recognizes this and thus goes elsewhere. PA has brought the low revenues upon themselves. A little greed is NOT a good thing in the final analysis. Change the game, Pennsylvania, and we'll follow. For now, I'm pl

idea
Well there are currently 12 states that don't have lotteries although NC, AL, and TN are considering adding them. Of the 39 jurisdictions that do have lotteries, 32 currently participate in Powerball or Mega Millions with SC and WA to be added in the fall respectively. That brings the total to 34 of 39. I think it would probably take another 10 years or so before Powerball and MM merged. But you did bring up an interesting point. And that is, what kind of lottery game would you like to see? I th

MUSL "Hot Lotto" $3.4 million ($1.9 million CASH) Wed 7/3
CASH Only,Why do you feel Super 6 Lotto in PA is dying? Maybe you are privy to sales numbers that I am not, but it still seems pretty steady to me. I imagine now that Powerball is here that people will tend to shift their lottery money to Powerball. As far as Hot Lotto goes, if they replaced Super 6 with it I would not play it. Yes I know it has better odds than Super 6 or Powerball, but to me, it is just a Powerball clone. The MUSL could have cooked up something more exciting. Also Hot Lotto is

Powerball PowerPicks for June 29
Anyone interested can recheck my figures. My figures show overall odds of having a winning ticket in PowerBall (5/49 + 1/42) is 1:34.7 which means one would expect to have 7-8 winning combinations out of 260 combinations.
