What Does It Take To Win (Mathematically Speaking?)
jimmy Only if you ignore the psychology behind why one would consider BJ a acceptable game of chance with such a large total of possible outcomes. Anyone who gambles against odds greater then 50/50 should expect to lose more then they win. Enough said.

North Carolina: 2/1 - 2/28/2011
I said this morning whats the odds of 208 or 128 coming out on 2/8/11. If it was that easy I'd be in rich by now.Stayed only with my base numbers, but will go with that hunch from now on.Scared money don't make money!

So 1-2-3-4-5 has never came up in a lottery draw?
Perhaps not a ball draw game, but Pennsylvania's Treasure hunt did come up with this combination of numbers in December. I was scrolling through the numbers to see if a certain wheel would be viable in that game because of the better odds - and came across this... http://www.palottery.state.pa.us/payout.aspx?id=436 drawId=37293 49 people split the jacpot, each recieving 1266 dollars.

Need a new strategy and motivation
Wow great info here guys ! Some eye-opening stuff. From now on I will cut back on chasing winners. I will also cut back on anything under $10 as I find my loose bills going towards these scratchers with horrible odds. Gonna also cut back on the games I truely hate - FMC, $200 Million Spectacular, LFL $200K. I figured if I hate playing them then why waste money on them ? I love $3 Million Monopoly for example. And its good motivation to find the symbols in that game. Cash Bonanza is anothe

For those with money and if you know the bonus ball...PB possibly a PICK3/20
you can do a 15 x 15 = $225 then it will be a Pick3/30 but then, but then E/O in the two 15s...SHOULD CUT IT IN HALF... and the Pick3/30 if you pick all odds or all even PLUS HOT/COLD IT SHOULD REDUCE IT TO LIKE A pICK3/15 or pick3/8....

2nd chance drawings...
I agree with you 100%. To me the scratchers are getting worse all the time. Since Florida is a major state we should have major prizes like those offered by New York Lottery. Florida also is a heavy tourist state which means that folks who come here to visit buy tickets and in some cases they win. Also, looks like a lot of people are turning to Fantasy 5. Best odds of winning anything significant. But seeing the jackpot often being split. And recent split 24 times twice! Which kinda sucks, bu

New York, NAILING THE PICK 4 !!
I win from speedometer readings, phone bills, etc. etc. random as they come, it doesn't surprise me about your license plate incident. Seeing the 1110 in Fla and 1100 in Mass. leads me to belive a low sum will travel to NY, three reasons 1) Just because, 2) It's like playing craps, when a 5 rolls, I play the 9 and 80% of the time it comes out, maybe because it's the same odds as the 5 rolling, same goes for 4 10, and 6 8. So, being the second to the highest sum came out in the 9989, and it ca
