Guarding Your Tickets
So many times we read about unclaimed tickets. I assume that many people throw them away in error or perhaps they lose a ticket after purchasing it. Do you have a special place where you always keep your lottery ticket or do you simply stick it in the pocket of your jeans after the clerk hands it to you? I have a plastic lottery sleeve in which I place my tickets, but then I put that on my desk next to my computer. 99% of the time I check the numbers that evening anyway.

New lawsuit claims Indiana Lottery did not award all prizesReply
Rick G....I agree with you that many people base their scratch-off plays on how many larger-tier prizes are still out there. That is what it appears the two guys in Indiana were doing. Do you feel the lottery purposefully did this or it was human error? In either case they should make some ammends to those who puchased tickets, whether 1 or 4000, as the tickets were purchased under flalse pretenses. I know the Indiana Lottery has had probelms in the past. To me it seems like they need

Maddogs Powerball Challenge 12/30Reply
Thanks everyone Not the same as xsmega 5+0 call, but hitting something is better than nothing. I am glad I am not playing with real money, otherwise, I'd be deep in the hole. I think the new format will make it tough for anyone to win unless they are spot on with no margin for error or covering one's tracks. If a 5/15 call only nets xsmega twenty something in winnings, it seems like the real format would need to be 8/3 to actually win money. And everyone will have to start looking for

kandi44, i am working on across the board (atb) numbers at the moment, i can't say that 252 is coming in Kansas, i don't know, some states have taken presidence to other states as SC and NY, based on the tracs, read through the thread and perhaps u may get a better understanding. if you are looking 4 a particular state, go to the p3 forum, there are soooooo many great posters here doing specific states, right now, i just can't, maybe later, but i'm really trying to pin down these vtracs for

Calif. Lottery misprint leaves 'winners' with nothingReply
Whiny cry babies? Nobodies whining or crying. Merely pointing out that CSL seems to be an extremely unprofessional operation. Im sorry but 11,000 misprinted tickets is WELL beyond any sort of reasonable printing error rate. Heck, they didn't even compensate the lady for her travel time or gas money to get to the claim center. Ya know why? Because all the lottery really cares about in the end is taking your stupid money. PS Hope it dont happen to you, but ya never know.

Mike Thank you for your response. You are spot-on with this one. This is also why they ask you to sign the back of them, because like checks, lottery tickets ALSO are legal tender in that if it is not signed, anyone can turn it in. They should be compensated far beyond a free ticket. And yes, the printer should be liable. If a handful get out, that is reasonable error rate, and those also should be compensated, but *gasp* FOUR THOUSAND of them? Inexcusable, and they should hang on the line

Mike I know there are some shady online operators, but the big boys give very little trouble to the average gambler. This whole situation regarding CA is downright reprehensible. I agree...anybody can come up with the old printer error situation...that shouldn't be our problem as players as if they go on sale to the public, then they should be good to go.

The California Lottery is very sorry that this error has occurred and will reimburse any player who purchased a misprinted ticket for the cost of the ticket. The Lottery will continue to pay the prize for any winning tickets. This is posted on the Ca Lottery website. I wonder if this means they will pay all the winners even on the misprinted ones or just real winners? Brian
