Powerball Lottery States Vote to Change GameReply
I have to believe that there are a lot of people out there who know the odds are very long at 120m-to-1 and this will push them away from the powerball. I doubt that I am much different than any other person as I set a budget for the lottery and try buy my plays toward the back end (after the pot has been built up a bit). If those pots are 50 million dollars or 200 million makes very little difference to the average guy. I am not going to go take out a bank loan just because the lottery has g

The Pigskin Challenge: 4-6-05Reply
pigskin,We Challengers have been covering the numbers pretty well lately. Maybe there are lurkers on the site who've been harvesting our number selections. JAG331 pointed out a few weeks ago that the PowerBall jackpot started getting hit quite regularly right about the same time that The Pigskin Challenge started. Even when our numbers haven't been so good, at least we've been showing people which numbers not to play. I just wish that one of us could strike it rich.I really doubt that we've stri

However, if I ever hear of them not paying off a sizeable bet, or too many small bets..I'm finished with them.And if NC gets a lottery soon, I'm finished with them anyway. At least my betting money will be helping my state.Well we have a lottery in my state, but I stopped playing it because the payout struc

When I play online, if I'm doing a lot of numbers at one time, I just play box. It there is a triple in the group of numbers and I win, it pays like a straight anyway. We often talk about 3-way numbers (n

Just wait ! No fuss No muss Ga. Eve.Reply
Playing with this group ....the opposite group tonight. The reason is obvious... because of all the recent hits the other way. The last 4or 5 nights would have at the least all been Box hits for theZero/One group. So swithching to group B down there for tonight seems like a good bet. We will see ....if not .....it was a good odds bet anyway. Dare we play them straight ? Only 1in 24 chance of hitting a straight.....nah...lets not tonight. If this B group hits tonight..... its already a

Old Pick 3 method reviewed.Reply
For simple answers do as good old Vision Dude does and just by a quick pick or quick pick it yourself out of your head, that is as simple as it gets, since they say that the lottery is random then if they are right it would be just as good as anything else.Another simple system would be Buy all possible combos , you would not make a profit and be in the red, but you would win all of the time and it's as simple as it gets.I don't say that you can win often with only 1 combo, compromises have to

I'm BORED with Powerball & MegaMillionsReply
Greg,You know, in all the news stories I've ever read, not a single jackpot winner has ever complained about the game he won being too boring. Maybe it's winning and the pursuit of winning that makes all the difference. I think every player has to find his own happiness in a game that suits his individual temperament.I've never been anywhere that Keno was just drawn once or twice a day. At one time, they almost implemented a proposed Keno game in my state, but they scrapped the game at the last
