How does scratch off lottery work?
The advantage of scratch off lottery over mega million type jackpot lottery is, in mega million lottery, for the top few high dollar value prizes you have to match 5 or 4 numbers from the 6 winning numbers meaning if your numbers are weird then chances of winning other prizes are not there. In nutshell, if you don't have six winning numbers, it's very less likely that you will have 5 winning numbers. Usually you are lucky to even match 3 numbers.
Whereas in instant lottery, for e.g. 2nd

"Green Hornet" New $5.00 Scratch-Off (Florida Lottery)
I tried a Miami heat ticket and lost. Its kinda tough paying $5 for the chance to win $100,000 when there are other $5 scratchers with the chance to win $200K.
I think the FL lottery just creates these tickets for quick revenue as the games usually dont last that long. Another thing Im skeptical about regarding the Miami Orlando tickets is when they first came out lats week, the FL Lottery site said these tickets will be available in select areas ...Makes me wonder if the Top Prizes are in se

Losing NJ Lottery tickets may soon be lucrative
Sounds nice. I'm about to join the VIP club just because I do have a few losing scratch offs, and hey, you never know.
I mean, how many people would go through the trouble of doing it, and then looking at how many winners there are, it could be better odds than playing the lottery anyway.
IF, for example, you did win one of the quarterly draws for $250, then you'd have a 15/400 chance of winning 10000-1 million. My dad was telling me that back in the day, he bought a (Pick 6?) ti

I've been a bit busy. Actually I've been playing some of Jack's numbers lately, so there isn't much of a reason for me to post (not much input right now - I'm trying to work out a new method )
Also, I'm trying to see if I can work something out to at least raise odds for Cash 5 and Pick 6 games.
Crow, if you're around please keep posting the UCDs. They are really, really helpful.

Florida: 1/1 - 1/31/2011
wow, so by picking a number for all states basically gives you 50 chances you are saying?
**edit** just checked that thread...wait a sec, you picked 70+ #s in that thread saying they are good in all states. Ericka, thats pretty much a gauranteed hit in one of the states! Congrats I guess
Should mean fantastic odds in your favor

Statistics around the balance of even/odd and small/big numbers
From quite a few discussions on this board, especially in Systems and Mathematics, quite a few people care greatly about these things. My point is knowing odds or evens, highs or lows, etc... ad nauseam doesn't tell you what specific numbers are going to hit. And that's what jackpots pay off on, five for five, six for six, five for five on the top matrix and the right Mega or Powerball number on the bottom matrix.
EXACTLY!
Don would agree too!
