Changes coming to Powerball multi-state lottery game in JanuaryReply
You have to ask yourself, Why do I play Powerball? If the answer is because its costs $1 , then you probably should quit. If the answer is for a shot at really big jackpots , then you might want to wait to see what happens to the game. If the answer is for a shot at a really big jackpots and the chance to win a million while I'm waiting , then, you might want to check out the new game. The scratch games moved to higher prices long ago. Sales of $1 scratch tickets are in decline while sales o

Good Investment Or Not- Playing Every CombinationReply
$3 million profit is nice any day, but something tells me that if a person or group somehow overcame the logistics and successfully pulled it off, some rule would be changed to try to prevent a repeat. With rules and frequencies of the drawings now, there would be so many people involved that no one but themselves would know about it unless they talked about it publicly. We assume it isn't happening now because no one has talked publicly about doing it since that Australian group did it in th

Why does New York always win MM & PB?Reply
I did a little looking and found on the PB web site that Flordia has the most winners(in the last drawing)... total of 74,192 this past draw for PB... NY was second with 38,623.. Now this is total winners not jackpot... I couldn't find stats on MB site... This would say Flordia bought the most tickets by a lot NY 2nd .. NY has won some good jackpots lately so these stats dont really speak to that... Just who or what state is buying most tickets I would guess. Remember I couldnt find stats fo

NY Scratch-off DiscussionReply
hey brotha sorry to hear about that big loss, I've had a few days like that myself. Except I bought most of my tickets at once and brought them home and make only about half or so back and then re-invest that money and continually lose my $$. I pretty much only hunt for jackpots or 5k+ wins which is why I buy a lot and bring them home. Should probably stop doing that soon Lol. Do you remember what # the few $50 wins you had were? If you were buying a roll I'd suggest the newer 3,000,000 riche

Playing the Extra Dollar on the Jackpot GamesReply
Thought I'd fire this topic up again ... yes, I like the multipliers also ... but when you go through 4 or 5 months of no hits then I begin to wonder if I would have been better off buying an extra ticket. I have been fine tuning my lottery strategy again. I've decided to hold at $100 a month (+ or-) in my lottery spending ... that's $1200 a year plus $40 on two $20 raffle tickets twice a year. However, I have changed my PB and MM playing ... I decided I would drop back from $10 a draw to $5 and

Small Jackpots vs Big JackpotsReply
It's more like Small jackpots AND big jackpots I'm focusing on Wis Megabucks right now @ 1,200,000 after taxes.. BUT I just can't ignore 73,000,000 after taxes on Meg Millions so I will play PB much lighter...

Gail Howard's Charts, how to reference?Reply
Thanks for the quick reply. I am just playing 5/42. Going for something like 4/90 is too much luck involved as the odds go up drammatically. Jackpots rarely exceed 1/2 a million euros here but for me are enough. To be honest if i ever win my biggest wish is to escape office hours hehe (assuming i ll survive the shock) Anyway its only a drawing per week (a wednesday). So its not that much. I know in the States drawing are more frequent and the jackpots reach Biblical proportions.
