Michigan Lottery selling scratch games after top prize goneNews Story
It's called The Golden Pack, a Michigan Lottery game that costs you $10 to play, with the promise that you can walk away a millionaire. But in truth, you can't come anywhere near the top prize -- it was won long ago.Only two Golden Pack tickets were truly golden, but the rest are still for sale.What's left is a maximum prize of $10,000, but lottery officials say they're not deceiving anyone.

When you are in a slump/losing streak how do you change things up?Reply
Scratchers are indeed very dangerous and potentially addictive, and you can lose a lot more playing them. It's their deceptive nature of having easy wins, high payouts and instant feedback that sets them apart from draw games, where you may have to wait a few days for feedback, and you know your wins are few and far between. But I don't play them like most people, hardly ever scratch them in store, and set a stop loss limit. I also track and analyze them in great detail. There's a lot more
