I SMELL RIGGING
Sure, they know appromiately how many people are going to win and what their payout going to be, that is the reason they decide the odds and amount of payout before starting a lottery. It amazes me when some pick three player has 30 numbers boxed and hit 1:5 or some of their numbers hit as much as 5-7 times some where in the country's 45 or so drawings, they claim they have a gift for picking numbers, when actually all they have done is matched the odds. Any one that was sell tickets in a multim

Protest Changing the Big Game!
Greg,I also was alarmed when I saw that. The odds are already 70 million to 1. What they are trying to do is create mega jackpots. Why? So one person eventually may win 500+ million dollars...so what? That's one person who becomes overly rich and the rest of the players are losers. They will soon learn the folly of their ways when people just stop playing the game. The higher the odds are in the game, the less the payoff-to-odds ratio. Non-parimutuel Pick 3 is the best game available to the play

Follow along with me just for fun
I have spent two years studing the lottery. Reading articles about Sums, Wheeling tables, propabilities and statistics. Using four computer programs, I have been able to reduce the odds of winning some money in my States lottery to every 1 in 4 games. I have recently tested it and hit once in the last 3 games. While it was only $5.00, the probabilities still held true. Based on the numbers drawn, I have reduced the odds of winning the Big One to 1 in 3,000. Starting Saturday, I will be posting

Traditional lotto games an endangered species?
A few years ago Ohio had a 6/47 lotto game which paid $3 if you matched 3 numbers. Your odds of getting something back was 1:48. They had winners from Indiana, Pennsyvania, Kentucky and one from Washington D.C.,a navy guy who was visiting family. The point is a lot of people from other states liked Ohio's game. But then they improved their game, for a while regardless of the jackpot size, one ticket could only win $20M, then they added 2 more numbers, then they said nobody wanted to be bother wi

Increase your odds dramatically and EARN
The Syndicate Club guarantee a member at least 1 winning number in every weekly Ozlotto and Powerball draw. They do this by giving you 5 numbers, then playing these against EVERY REMAINING NUMBER, giving you a sixth winning number. In Powerball, a member of The Syndicate Club gets the Powerball every week. In this way, a player's odds are increased dramatically. A member can also learn to play AT NO COST and EARN $$$ through a unique multi-level opportunity.Visit http://www.skybusiness.com/roari

Probability of winning with multiple tickets
There is only one set of winning numbers drawn and each set played is an attempt to match that set.
Suppose you only bought one ticket but they drew two sets of numbers? What would that do to the odds?
I didn't say each additional ticket cuts the odds in half.
That's another part of his inability to understand 3rd grade fractions. He seems to think that we're saying that 2/100ths is twice as much as 1/100th (and might even understand that much) but also thinks that we're saying 2 x

Comparing the games MM, PB and some others/what to buy?
The new Mega Millions game will have multipliers that can win up to $10 million but what are the odds?
According to the flyer on the Michigan website these are the odds for the various Megapliers
10 x 32:1
5 x 16:1
4 x 8:1
3 x 3.2:1
The odds of winning second prize are 12,629,232:1
Thus the odds for these prizes are
$10,000,000 12629232*32= 404,135,424:1
$5,000,000 202,067,712:!
$4,000,000 101,033,856:1
$3,000,000 40,413,542:1
The Price of the new

Mega Millions Full Distribution
The best approach is this.
The draw as with any draw follows a fixed set of rules based upon the rules in this case 5/75, these never change, the graphs show this.
What I would do if I were to play this draw is do the math to find when each number should appear.
So graph 1 show ball 1 appears in 1,150,626 combinations of the 17,259,390 different possible combinations found in 5/75
So 17,259,390 / 1,150,626 = 15
So ball one should appear in ticket position one on average once every

What are the odds
We're reposting with a little change for Odds calculation.
Factorial - n! = n (n -1) (n - 2) ... 3 2 1 and 0! = 1
Permutation - P(n, r) = n! / (n - r)!
Combination - C(n, r) = P(n, r) / r!
Probability of Win - Wp(n, r, w) = (C(r, w) C(n - r, r - w)) / C(n, r)
Odds to Win - Wo(n, r, w) is 1 in (1 - Wp(n, r, w)) / Wp(n, r, w)
n - total numbers in lottery pool
r - pick size from the pool of numbers
w - winning drawn numbers in a played combo
