Florida Holiday Millionaire Raffle 2016
I guess that even with the failure to sell out last year's Raffle tickets, the Florida Lottery turned enough of a profit to offer a raffle again this year. What's the same: Sales capped at 750,000 tickets 7 top prizes of $1,000,000 (at odds of 1/ 107,143.) Five weekly drawings with two $10,000 winners per draw. What's changed: Longer sales period-- last year the Raffle ran from Nov. 15th to Dec. 30th. This year it runs from Oct. 31st to Jan. 2nd. The first wee

Virginia man tossed winning $10 million lottery ticket on floorNews Story
If he'd known he was holding a ticket worth $10 million, George Coffroad might have been a bit more careful with it. When the Alexandria man went to his car with Virginia Lottery Scratcher tickets he'd just bought, he tossed them on the floor of the car. It wasn't until later at home, when he scratched his 100x the Money ticket, that he discovered he'd won the game's $10 million top prize. The prize is the largest ever offered by a Virginia Lottery Scratcher game. Since he's the first play

Is it easier to win pick 3 or pick 4 in your own experience?Reply
236 347 125 458 781 569 014 892 670 903 As for coming up with the numbers, if any pick-3 game has a single (three different digits) drawn, one of these lines will match two digits. That also means the odds of one these lines matching all three digits is 7 to 1. A $1 box on each line costs $10 and pays at least $80. But those odds don't include the 28% chance a double or triple will be drawn. I'm pretty sure a 3 digit match in pick-4 games can be guaranteed on 18

Do you believe every combination has the same probability?Reply
Floyd, I don't think we've said anything different. In my view, we're using different words. I would imagine there is several dozen ways to say........ The odds of the same exact order set hitting in back to back draws is 1 in 1 million. (I used 000 because that was the rabbit out of the hat when I started the sentence.) It is interesting the way we both agree that probability affects random. However, you stop short of saying probability adversely affects random. Your use of the term incr

Hit 4 of 5 numbers, what would you do?Reply
I have studied odds. and odds don't tell the whole story. if that were the case then pic three players would only hit on average of once every 1000 predictions. to my knowlege (a study done) no lottery with a 6 number draw has ever repeated! with that being said, 4 numbers have, three numbers happen more often than you might think. there called triads. I would first off enjoy the win. go take in a movie, dinner whatever with a smile. I would change my numbers up and run e

Hey Zebekyia, Glad to hear you're doing well so far here in FL. Are you looking to play scarcer tickets with potentially higher likelihood of hitting a jackpot? If you email any of the district offices at the link below, you can tell them the game name/number, and ask them to send you store locations within the specific area of the state you're staying at (response time normally within 24-48 hrs via email): http://flalottery.com/lotteryOffices * Call stores in adva

HOT DIGIT ?? or something more?Reply
Wisconsin....I did go over the draws again and marked them for what they were. I chose to focus on first and second draws as that is what is most likely in both designated pairs category. Here's what I found: Random next draw.....33 Consecutive or mirror pair.....29 Random two draws....22 Consecutive or mirror pair.....18 So the totals become Random.......55 55 draws that are based on random, not knowing what could be there. Consecutive or mirror.......47 47 draws that are based on

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I finished the Super Millions book I bought the rest of. I would've been ahead $100 if I hadn't on that game for today, but the possibilities with it being book #725k made it hard to resist. That book had 4 $100 winners in the first half. Tickets #3, 4, 8, and 14 = $400 Then had winners: 16- $30 17- $20 20-$50 21- $20 23-$40 28-$20 29- $20 Total 11 winners: Odds - 1 in 2.72 (better than posted game's odds) Book return: $600 (literally,

Pick 3 Pokemon Brand New System Win Win WinReply
Why did WinD leave LP?? Personally, I believe Win D woke up one morning and realized that trying to win Pick 3 using the percentage methods he was pushing was a waste of time and money. Instead of owning up to his errors, he decided to just quietly drop out of sight. Or, his methods were correct and he is worn out making trips to his bank to deposit pockets full of cash and lottery checks. We all have a day of discovery. I accept the fact that there are folks who can analyze a gam
