New NC LotteryReply
I think TN and NC should have their own instate game. SC can go lotto south. Lotto South is being hit often now which could mean a lot more players or very lucky players. Anyway, I see lotto south changing their matrix in the next few years.

Day or Night??
Do you have more hits on days or night's??? Is the play more aggressive day or night..???? Do you play same numbers or adjust each drawing??? I like playing more aggressive, by changing or rearranging numbers each drawing...Numbers react to each other=meaning they have their favorites-beside or across from each other....Works for me!!!! The real game is straight picks-played-multi. times...Love STATE MONEY!!!!

Powerball is on a winners streak again!Reply
True. I only play the game which currently has the higher jackpot (although with MM recently changing its matrix, its annuity jackpot has to be at least 20% higher than Powerball's), but MM's pots have gone over $100 million so many times it's boring. I wish their jackpots would get hit below $100 million as well. It doesn't seem quite right that it only happens to Powerball, especially since they have a lower player:odds ratio.

The matrix of the game is changing. Because they are going form 5/52+1/52 to 5/56+1/46, they will need to change the software.

Pick Or Stick?Reply
Tso-gali-IIf all of you would use the Bell-Curve you could see the numbers changing all the time. And yes, there are times certain numbers will hit' again and even again at times. two times in a row is not unusual. Three times very seldom. But the Bell-Curve lets you see where the numbers are going, so you can see within a certain frame of what numbers will hit' the next game. The Powerball works in the same manner.Chief

Too many players winning Powerball, lottery saysReply
I agree with prof McCullough. We might have 20 jackpot wins this year. Yet, changing the matrix might not be necessary. A random game like Powerball, with it's current matrix, might begin a record setting jackpot run at any time. Conversely, it might have a series of frequent jackpot hits as we have recently been experiencing. It's all random and this summer we might also be discussing the Powerball record breaking jackpot that has just been set.

Too many players winning Powerball, lottery saysNews Story
The agency running the Powerball lottery might decrease the odds of winning the multimillion-dollar jackpot to stem a record-setting run of winners that is keeping jackpots small and, the agency says, causing ticket sales to plunge. To some extent, you try to ride it out. But I think we'll need to make some changes to the game pretty soon, said Chuck Strutt, executive director of the Urbandale, Iowa-based Multi-State Lottery Association, which runs the game. We'll lose more than $400 milli
