Which STATE offers the best GAME?Reply
The Florida Fantasy 5/36 is a very good game and I play it regular mainly because the 6/53 odds are so hard to beat. Even so I prefer a Pick-6 game because the wheels cover so much more.I did forget to mention when lower odds games have rollovers they can suddenly have a major game prize at small game odds. It is kind of a shame PlayLot only offers the larger games, I guess that's because it takes a big jackpot to attract players from other states. We could wait years for the WV 6/25 to get u

Which STATE offers the best GAME?Reply

A game with lower odds has a smaller prize that kind of thing. The only difference is how well the prize is funded based on the population and how often they play. More money,

What's the most you've spent on a ticket?Reply
Quote: Originally posted by Bradly_60 on November 09, 2004The most I have ever spent was the last time Michigan had a WinFall. The odds of matching three are 1 in 53. The prize I believe was almost $50. I had 3 $20 bills on me so I plopped those down. Unfortunately the odds didn't work in my favor that time and I didn't win squat. But I didn't care. It was fun and about $21 went to public schools in Michigan. I matched three of six and four of six on the same drawing back in January for a

My Idea for a New Scratch GameReply
I've seen people buy 20 scratch-off tickets and never bother to check any of them, but ask a clerk to scan them for winners. I think the lotteries offer all those worthless game instructions to give the loser a feeling of some control before learning he has won nothing. Think about it, when the published odds of winning something is 1:5 and many of the prizes are a free ticket with the same odds of winning, then the odds of actually winning some real money are much higher and spending $10 or $

anyone know about wheeling?Reply
28 lines is right. The formula is simple for any group/subgroup. In this case, the number of lines for choosing 6 numbers out of 8 is: 8! 6! * (8-6)! = 28You can get the odds of the game the same way...permutationwise... 48! 6! * (48-6)! = 12,271,512So the odds are 1:12,271,512If you do a full 8:6 wheel...28 tickets, you effectively reduce the odds of winning the jackpot to 1:438,268. Best of luck, pick good numbers!

anyone use MDIEditor and Lotto WE for PB?Reply
Quote: Originally posted by willl3 on September 26, 2004Does anyone use it and if so have they been successful?When you say been successful , I assume you mean won a jackpot. Most everyone here use software or some type of system to pick their numbers and no one has reported winning a jackpot yet. If you don't mean winning a jackpot, then you have to define successful. The odds of winning a jackpot is usually 1:20M or worst and there are only 3000+ members here, so the odds are if there are a

Which method of play is better?Reply
are they 100% right, or is it the fact they have sold you a dream of false outcomes. the only one who has any way of keeping inventory on what is played is the one who has all the plays of the game logged. I think that it is still fair if I am to believe what I am seeing. The odds are great, but lets face it people do win big from time to time, I want to believe that the system is legitimate and honest, and also worth the chance, after all. in this society what else do we have, hard work, and gr

Has anyone tried this?Reply
NBey6 - That's true, but I think the secret may be in finding the sweet spot where you bid little enough to make a profit on as few wins as possible, but enough to make the odds worth playing.At $50 a game the odds are 50 in 1000 or 5 in 100 (unless someone is going to tell me my math is screwed up and I can't reduce that way). The difference between 5 in 100 ($50) and 1 in 10 ($100) is HUGE! On the other hand, going to $200 per game only takes the odds to 200 in 1000 or 2 in 10. Going from
