A Pick 3 Number Comes In Straight Twice Daily In Illinois. That You Haven't Matched Any Of Those In 11 Months Isn't That Strange. The Odds Of A Straight Are 1 In A 1,000 How Many Straight Combinations Do You Play Each Draw?

Would They Pay It? Can They Pay It?Reply
Thanks for rechecking your calculations again. I didn't think to mention that a '0' should always be there for the 2nd prize only ... Cash Balls or 'bonus numbers' have nothing to do with the 2nd prize. It's very simple, pick 5 winning numbers out of 60 and you win $ 1 million cash or weekly checks ... unless you also have the Cash Ball ... then it gets better. I have never seen the 5,461,512 odds posted anywhere at any lottery site ... it's always 7,282,016 ! ...

Worst Lottery Games You have ever played? :/Reply
The worst lottery game was New York Lottery's Sweet Millions game. It ran from 2009 until 2014 and was billed as having the best odds to win a million for a dollar . Players were required to choose six numbers from 1 to 40, either by choosing their own or by asking their store clerk for a Quick Pick. It cost $1 per line, and up to 10 games could be played on a single playcard. Matching 6 of 6 (1 in 3,838,380) won you a $1 mil prize, but if there were no winners, the jackpot did not roll

Cash 4 Life - FloridaReply
If I lived in FL I would probably buy a ticket on draw day - in the state near me we have Lucky for Life - but this FL version has better odds by about 10 million/1. Hopefully that one ticket does not get lost into the FL coffers and some does claim it! Lucky for Life only draws Mondays and Thursday though and its a $2 ticket - does the FL game draw each day?

Would They Pay It? Can They Pay It?Reply
Sometimes I'll play Tx Cash 5 with 2 identical lines. Jackpot is $25K, so payout would be $50K. However, when they started the game they put a cap of $75K. So, should there be 4 winning tickets, they would split that $75K four ways. When I played AoN a lot I liked to play the same (sometimes alternating) numbers up to 5 times. Top prize of $250K would be $1.25 million. Odds were ok, but ticket price of $2 made it expensive. They also made of cap of $20 million, which is highly unlikely to eve

A Probable + EV Game? Need Help Confirming.Reply
I will there's no rush... Vegas lines based on statistics have been extraordinarily accurate over a large sum of games.. if you take 1000 games where Vegas has said the favourite will win 70% of the time... After a 1,000 games it's very close to a 700/300 split. Now I'd like to use that for a Pools Style lottery game where regardless of the odds you just need to pick the winners on a given day night... and you are up against the other players not the house... the adva

24 Bonus Match 5 lottery tickets sold at one Maryland store win top prizeReply
I buy five identical lines on my PowerBall ticket and I add the PowerPlay option as well. Essentially it costs me $15 to play one set of six numbers five times. I do this because I'm not focused on a first place win. I'm more interested in a second place win as the odds are eleven million to one as opposed to 292 million to 1 for first place (the jackpot). Should I ever be so lucky to match the first 5 numbers, then hopefully my ticket could be worth 10 million dollars. I say could be because

WI Badger 5 - 4/28/20Reply
I think you're right but a girl can dream. It seems that the confusion caused to the lottery by Covid has shaken out and now tons more people have settled onto Badger 5 as their game of choice because it's actually win~able. A larger pool of players outweigh the game odds hence more frequent wins. At least that's my crazy theory. I could be wrong.

Mega Millions lottery jackpot rolls to $410 millionReply
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the first time Mississippi hit MM with MP for $2 million? Happy for them and newest state for a lottery. BTW and stop laughing but all my on-line purchases resulted in nothing!! Suzy-Dittlenose, am thinking seriously of scratchers too, much better odds...just have to buy @ the right store, right time. Certainly we all know that drill.
