Bill banning lottery courier services passes Indiana House and SenateReply
these blanket bans. They really disenfranchise people like the elderly, the homebound, people in rural areas, A simple solution would be for the lottery to offer online sales themselves. That would also allow them to limit sales to request that originate within the state if they have concerns about selling across state lines. They could even set up an in-house courier service and take the orders and print the actual tickets on behalf of players. As a bonus, players who have trouble playing

will you play the new $5 mega millions?Reply
Here is a breakdown of the changes, which may cause some of you to reconsider (especially if you haven't read the Lottery Post article): Mega Ball 24 - 25 will be removed, making either 24 or 23 total. KRCA says 24. Current odds are 1 in 302 million. The new odds are 1 in 278.369 million according to Lottery Post's article (23 Mega Balls?). KRCA says ~290 million (24 Mega Balls?). For reference, Powerball odds are currently 1 in 292.201 million. The new Mega Millions will be easier to win th

Gaming the lottery was this couple's retirement planReply
watch as they are illegally arrested for doing nothing wrong. They haven't played the MA game for 6 years. It should be incredibly obvious that they're not going to be arrested, or even bothered. As for doing nothing wrong, did you read the article and understand it? They deliberately and knowingly violated the lottery's rules by printing tickets outside of the businesses' normal operation hours. Lucky for them that's just a violation of the retailer's contract rather than a crime, and it s

Man in Iraq wins $6.4 million Oregon Lottery jackpotReply
I'm sorry, but if you're too lazy and too afraid of admitting you're wrong to simply look up ALL the facts I've already given you, that's on you. If you want to be a person who is okay basking in the glory of their own ignorance, again, that's on you. It's obvious you have no actual knowledge of the UK and it's tax laws. It's also obvious that you would prefer to THINK you are right than to actually BE right. In which case there is no hope for you. To those who actually want to know

Has Gail Howard done it again?Reply
Thank you for your reply. I can understand your skepticism. However one of the Jackpot definitions in the dictionary is a TOP PRIZE , and its a top prize. I am curious why the odds for a pick 4 is just a bit worse for a pick 20. I did go and buy the magazine, with a cringe as I opened my wallet and handed over the money. If winning a pick 4 is 1:10000 to make 5,000 Then I assume winning a pick 7 keno is mor diffficult, but after buying cringing face the article I realized h

Can math and logic improve chances of winning a jackpot?Reply
Quoting that number as the number of [present tense] Is common sense a foreign word to you? Regardless, comparing LP to CasinoCityTimes is absurd. The majority established your opinions are useless, Jimmy. Which part of nobody cares what you think, don't you understand? I can send emails to Don Catlin, and probably look him up in Vegas. 711cat@comcast.net You apparently believe that since there are people posting at LP who discount Lustig, we can assume they are more exp

Lottery Code has already been brokenReply
To continue my commentary: You admitted above that you were taught in school that the Big Bang Theory suggests it was not a Ball of energy, but rather a Point of energy. Then you say, how do you know this all is one energy ? I'll just respond by asking you, what does a Point of Energy mean to you? Isn't a point just one source, one field of energy? And when the 'Bang' occurred and the energy differentiated into planets and other matter, is it not still, One rather large Field of Energy? I'll

Eliminators - The workup hit men.Reply
Thanks for the link Jimmy. It was a good article and the comments at the end are noteworthy. The last comment given seems a bit simplistic on the face of it, but I'll give it a fair turnover. The article reminded me of member Thoths' good LP thread entitled Benford's Law and the Lottery . His thread was inspired by WIN D's posting about Benford's Law. The thread focused on analyzing skips and hits. Here it is: https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/148025 Traditional probability theory and comput
