Buying More Tickets Does Not Increase Your Odds.Reply
So you believe that the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th lines of numbers have taken the 175,000,000 to 1 odds down to 35,000,000 to 1? Nope and I said there are FIVE 35 million to 1 chances. It means for every 35 million to 1 winning chance, there are 34,999,999 losing chances. Multiple that by five because there are four other 35 million to 1 chances and you'll have the same number of losing chances you began with. It's like in the 500,000 ticket raffle games with four chances to win $1 million

Pennsylvania: 11/1 - 11/30/2011Reply
I agree with your statement about the instants, absolute killing is right. One thing I'd like to add though about fixing...it's more of a controlled fix imo. The test draws/pre-draws/draws they do not reveal - if information was released about those drawings, I think things would be more clear to those interested or suspicious of any wrongdoing. To allow total randomness in drawings, one draw should be used that goes for the rng also. But no, they need to test and retest to remove any s

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
LOL!! LOL!! omiller..that is funny!...can you imagine finding a potentially 'kick up your heels' kind of symbol..and have it lose? I'd be over at headquarters demanding a real payment...wait, they'd probably only pay the ticket price or give a replacement that yielded $0.00. So they win again anyway. There used to be good days...and they were finding $100's - Cash Fever used to be a sure thing almost - bonus areas abundant with either black or red $100's...I haven't seen one of th

Office Pool Lotto QuestionsReply
I've been running a pool in my office for a few years now and I can give you some advice. We buy a mix of Powerball and Lotto tickets with the numbers being a combination of quick picks and members' picks. This gives a pretty good mix of numbers in my opinion. Payday in our office is every 2 weeks, and that is when I collect the money. I charge $4/payday to each member, and I buy multidraw tickets to cover the 4 drawings that will occur over the next 2 weeks. That makes things easier
