Buying More Tickets Does Not Increase Your Odds.Reply
THE LOTTERY IS A ZERO SUM GAME WITH A SUNK COST AND AN OPPORTUNITY COST. Lottery tickets reduce your net worth unlike stocks. You only receive .50 cents back on every dollar you spend on lottery games in the USA. I have to agree that most players win the lottery by buying more than 1 lottery ticket, but they also lose a lot of money in the short run in opportunity cost. They should raise the price of Mega Millions and Powerball to $5 per ticket and lets see how it feels to buy multip

In European: Odds, match 0 with 1 combination 5/39 = 0,483 287 220 129 325 1:2,069 162 929 Last digits: 0-9 0 = underweighted You are not helping a beginner. I also suggest that you write out your letters, LD = last digit ... .

Florida Fantasy5 discussion. Who is in??Reply
Thank you CDanaT , but i played 4 and 18 ,a free useless ticket. I was going to play something like this last night : 6 18 21 28 35 =( ........ but did not. The odds of 18 28 repeating again are big , so i am going to give it a shot . The best of luck! Maybe Mr 3 shows up tonight.

When Mega Millions Goes To $2/TicketReply
as there are 46 balls in the barrel , the odds of 36 coming up next time are 1 in 46. , same as every other number. there's no magnet in ther repulsing 36, well at least i hope not. now if you want 2 in a row, you mean whats the chance for the next 2 Mega balls to drop 36? that would be 1 in 2116 ;ie 1/46 x 1/46. you cant use the resuult form before of 36 as anything other than 1 as its a certainty, you know the chance of it being 36 is 100% because its already happened, and the chance

The Thrifty Way To Winning A Lottery Jackpot With A Lottery Stop Loss Limit And 3 Playing MethodsReply
Have you bought 2 quick pick tickets for mega millions or powerball to find out that the first digit on line A is repeated on line B? This has happened to me almost every time that I buy two quick pick tickets for mega millions or powerball. What do you think? Here is an example A) 14, 16, 23, 30, 45 B) 14, 19, 28, 40, 51 It has been so frustrating that I have decided buy A SINGLE LINE regardless of the jackpot size for mega millions or powerball. I know the only solution is to pi

Need some help on KenoReply
Look on youtube for Keno Odd Even , there is one video giving some insight. It is mine by the way. One keno isn't the other! They differ in sizes and payouts. You might progress by starting to calculate the odds and compare to the payments. Generally a good keno has 70 numbers, 20 are drawn and you can play pick 2 to pick 10. I believe that I saw one where you could play a pick 1! I never heard of a winning system, and I do it my way with my programs. When I started, I quickly dropped

I use to play these on a regular basis but the past 8 months has been either highly unlucky for me or there is funny business going on at the Ohio lottery. ( I believe the latter honestly) This game has been going on for close to 3years. I wonder how long they can drag it out and hook more people on it. Last I checked roughly 50% or more of it's Top prizes are still not hit. In the past I would at a minimum hit $50 out of a $100 week (several times multi 100's and including 2-$500's and 2
