Anyone remember dollar scratch off tickets sold in packs of six for five bucks?
I remember New York had these a few years ago. Six one dollar scratch off tickets sold in packs for five dollars (one free). Can't recall if they were sold during the holidays. Does anyone remember these tickets? Another question I have is the number sequence on the tickets. Were they sold as 000 - 005 in all packs? I wonder what the odds of winning were if that was the case.

What is a lottery system? What distinguishes a lottery system from guesses, dreams and quick picks?Reply
It's unlikely if anyone accepted visiondude's challenge it would prove anything. For several years I've played PB and MM along with the local 649 Classic Lotto with odds of winning a jackpot at least twelve times better but my winnings results don't show that. It unlikely a system or strategy even if it gives a player an edge would show any difference results in the short term from those of an equal amount of randomly picked combinations. That's the reason players who buy two lottery tickets

Expecting to win?Reply
Visualization works in sports (ask any golfer, basketballer, etc), business (goals, look of business, etc) and sex (just ask any guy or even girl). But I have have visualized myself winning the big jackpot for over 20 years now and I have not won so much as $35. So I would say visualization does not work for winning the lottery despite the fact that 1 woman in California won that states lotto and says she employs power of positive thinking or the few people who say they expected to win. I think

Why youre losing at pick3Reply
Excel programs for tracking structures are ineffective and always will be and Ive yet to see people use them to even level the odds at playing pick anything .... Think of this : WHAT good does it do to have an excel program when there are tons of missing data? Could you predict weather patterns with missing data? My program deals with Quantum Entanglement/theory and its relationship to digits.

Florida Lottery Black EditionReply
For what it's worth, at least you guys arent paying $10 for this ticket (or werent I should say). TN's jackpot for Lottery Black was $250,000 at $10 a piece; I think GA is also a $10 game but the top prize is 500k or 750k; SC also has it as a $10 game but a top prize of just 200k. I did hit $100 on this one a few days ago (we still have about 2 prizes remaining here), but I did think to myself as I put the money in the slot that it is the worst odds of all the $10 games, last I checked. De

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Thanks omiller. Later that day I tried more scratch offs and did the best I have ever done on them. I didnt win a ton or anything, but it just felt good that I hit on EVERY ticket I bought -- with the exception of one. The $100 win was still the highest of the day with a $15 win coming in second (on a $2 Jumbo ticket) but hey, I will take any win over a loss anyday. Yes I am pretty sure TN stops sales after large prizes are hit. They dont have that dreadful phrase on their scratchoffs like

There is something telling me, you are hoping someone will post a system, that really does work, so you can use it. I think we all have self interest as an incentive for posting at LP, why should VD and Jimmy be any different? While I do believe one can establish a system of playing that may improve their odds of winning something, that doesn't come close to a system that guarantees a win or profit every times one plays which is what VD and Jimmy are looking for. Since less than 3% of lottery

Florida Jackpot WinnersReply
If Gold Rush has 2 prizes added, I wonder if they pull all Gold Rush tickets and replace with the newly printed set and new lot number. If not, then it would stand to reason to watch out for the newest lot number you can find which likely carries the jackpot. Although, Since I've been tracking Lot numbers, I believe they skip around and do not print sequentially, this means that they could add rolls and you couldn't tell anything of value by the Lot number. However, the Gold Rush jackpot o

NY Scratch-off DiscussionReply
WOW @ the million !! I would of been so distraught lol. Im curious to know what are the odds of hitting $500 or $1,000 on a $10 or $20 scratch off in NY ? Do you guys have set payouts on rolls or is it random ? In Florida you can get multiple big winners or have a roll that will pay back 20% only.
