Do the people who win a lot on scratch tickets spend a lot of money to get those winnings?Reply
To me it's obvious they spend a lot to get more wins. Most people like to brag about the big wins but don't tell you how much they spent. And If they do tell you that they only spend a few bucks a week on scratchers and win 500 bucks every two weeks or so, they're either the luckiest people on Earth or lying. I prefer to believe the latter. There may be times when you'll get into a lucky streak and win 3 or 4 times out of 8 or so, but that luck will eventually run out. There are obviously les

Do some number combinations have better odds?Reply
Hey ronnie, I was curious, how many $100 wheels can you play consecutively in a losing fashion before you start to worry and it starts to sting? Also ronnie you may want to do a three number power number wheel, to cut down cost and improve odds. And I would recommend your number string be filtered by skips.

Do some number combinations have better odds?Reply
I'm now fully convinced that ANY method is BETTER than NO method when it comes to choosing winning lottery numbers......... And the use of a system has proven to be of great benefit to any method........ In LESS THAN 39 MM draws (around 33 to be exact) 5 out of 6 people have hit 5 of 5 multiple times. There is no question, using a method and a system gives the lottery player BETTER ODDS.

Are QPs randomly generated numbers?Reply
This is the best answer on the block...especially the part about targeting combinations that haven't been picked. In my opinion, a truly random draw is to go from one single draw to the very next without any pre-tests. But, this idea directly supports the odds (likelihood) of a particular thing NOT occurring again although those same numbers/combinations are in the barrel. Those officials fully understand that all these games are based on systematically eliminating certain things according to hi

Are QPs randomly generated numbers?Reply
The odds of matching MM's bonus number is 75 to 1 so theoretically there should be 75 five number matches to expect a jackpot winner or $293 million in QP ticket sales. If they do in fact systematically sell combinations, it would be the five number combos because they all probably get a random bonus number. A way to determine that would be to divide the total ticket sales for a drawing by 3.9 million and see if the number of five number matches is about the same. The total sales includes sel

Iowa couple claims $202.1M Powerball jackpotReply
I hate to be the bearer of bad NYews, but DE won last night. After this IA win, I had predicted I'LL A WIDE would be next winners, so we can scratch the DE off and look to IL, LA, and WI for the next winners. I am going to boost my premonition odds by playing both in WI and IL! That couple sounds just like me, but I can assure LP world that my press conference will indeed be newsworthy. Now I just have to win for you all to find out why people will be talking about that for weeks to come!

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Was at Publix this morning and decided to try out the new $5 ticket Wild 7's - I like the way the ticket looks so I bought 5 from two bins. Got a hundred smackers on two !!!! One of the others paid $5 ----------------- think I might head around to a few different stores and pick up a few at each place . Top prize is $250K - the Fl Lot never mentions anyone winning $250K ...... I VERY seldom buy $5 tickets but I could be missing out - looking at how much I spend on $20 ticks - could get 4 of thes
