Rather win less often, but bigger prizes OR win more often, but much smaller prizes?Reply
Harve$t Moon, If you're talking jackpot games, I'd rather see more jackpots hit because of games having smaller matrixes. This would produce smaller jackpots, but no individual really needs hundreds of millions. In fact, we've just about become numb to anything less than a record jackpot. Casinos, horsetracks, sports books, and lotteries can never buy the kind of publicity that they get from winners, so create more winners.

When To Play The LotteryReply
What do you mean I doubt if California will allow two jackpots in a row ? What can they do about it? If someone has a winning ticket, they have to honor it. I have seen Georgia with 3 jackpots in a row for fantasy 5.

I don't get it either. When you win one of those monstrosity's they take most of it in taxes anyway. You really do have to win hundreds of millions to come away with anything big. 30 million is nothing to sneeze at but I suppose (as you implied with the 100 million jackpots) that people are used to seeing jackpots that high on a regular basis so it doesn't seem anything special. Well,none of it's really special, is it?..........unless you're the one winning it, of course! lol

Listings of Jackpot > odds?Reply
A few years back there was an international group that looked for such jackpots. They played the Virgina lottery and won by attempting to play all of its possible combinations and were featured on the TV show How they do that . They were the only winner and did so by taking over three Seven Eleven store terminals for three days in a an attempt to run cards with all the possible combinations. Afterward, most states changed the rules of their games to limit the length of time a group or indivi

Manual or Quick PickReply
bomatt, This is one of the most frequent topics that comes up on LP. FWIW, I track the Illinois Little Lotto drawing by drawing, since it's played 7 days a week. These are the results thus far for 2009: To date: 120 Jackpots 104 QP 67 PS (PS= players' selection). 86.6 percent of the jackpots have went to QPs. 55.8% to player's selections. (This includes shared jackpots so the combined number of QP and PS is more than the number of jackpots paid. https://ww

Close CallsReply
For several weeks now, I've come close to winning on Daily Derby Lotto Game-CA Lottery but due to my budget, I only play it Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday because it costs $2.00 per play and if I play it all week, it would cut into my other lotto games. So far my timing on the hitting my chosen numbers is terrible and I've missed winning on last Thursday, $554.00, winning only $3.00. This also has happened with QPs as well. SO snip FRUSTRATING--It's enough to want to bang your head agains
