Georgia Lottery Scratch Offs
Ok, so I studied them all briefly. Looks like GA sent out some more Madness games. A $1, $2 and a $5 one. Top prizes in order are $150, $300 and $600. $5 one looks cool to me, and the odds aren't that great, but its the best out of all the low tier Madness tickets. I can at least feel confident in winning $10 on it if I'm lucky I'll find the $50 winner in each roll. Cashword is just Cashword, but I'll try it when I need to do something for 5 minutes. Plus it has decent odds to win $10,

CA Lottery - California Love - CA Lottery Scratchers
After I posted my comment, I looked at the differences between the two. It's about a 4% extra return on average for lower tier prizes. I used 100 tickets as a basis, but in reality one needs to play, on average, a few hundred tickets to achieve the 4%. I would rather see the CA Lottery achieve better lower tier prize payouts by increasing the payout rate, not by redistributing the prize fund by doubling the odds of top prizes. They could increase the payout rate a few percentage points, add m

Double your Double Odds Pleasure!
A prime example of going after the smaller( less likely) group for the NEXT double. The smaller 38% group hit .......and it was based on the previous double types. The 62% double group took a back seat to the 38% group based not on the odds but on the over whelming......Probability of Dependent .....not independent EVENTS. In simple terms not using a basic formula............we were asking the advance probability of a ( a ONE event contest... requiring or containing a 12 event occurrence)

Are correct probability calculation?
1) Close, but you don't add. You multiply and get probability = 4.82829E-10 2) Divide 1/probability found in #1 = 2,071,126,800 3) Find 5! (factorial 5, or 5*4*3*2*1) since you can choose the 5 numbers in any order = 120 4) Divide #2 by #3 = 17,259,390 5) For MM, multiply #4 by 15 since there are 15 different Mega balls = 258,890,850 Those are the odds. You can divide 1 by 258,890,850 to get the probability in decimal form. Note that if you compare #4 to the odds for 2nd prize in

pick 5 play regular group for ga fantasy 5 or maybe another pick 5 game.
I play the Georgia fantasy 5/39, I am using a 7 number wheel that has 21 tickets that has a 5 out of 5 guarantee. As you know wheels are good and picking a wheel with 5 out of 5 guarantee is better and picking the most amount of numbers is the key but very pricey but the odds are better. I am using lotto pro it, I notice it has a 12 number wheel with 5 out of 5 guarantee total tickets 792. It also has a filter option which will reduce the amount of tickets. I tested my wheel that I normal

Help for Pick 3 players - Gaining an edge
Good question. You have to do a sensible ,and systematic, breakdown of the numbers. This is a breakdown that would not be based on hot/cold/overdue or anything like this. Let me explain something. We know that any ,one, number has odds of 1000:1. This is the case whether the number is a single, double, or triple. This all has to do with Probability Theory. A specific double would have the same odds as a specific single. This should tell you something. It means that you don't want to stick wit

Mega Millions lottery game's redesign aims at bigger jackpots, better overall odds
Increasing the jackpot odds by an astonishing 83 million from 175,711,536 to 258,890,850? LOL Everyone we know plays for the jackpot not the lower tier prizes, so it doesn t matter what the overall odds will be. Before these changes the jackpot odds were already ridiculously long. We seldom played the game and we've never won anything. Now with the odds being 83 million longer, it doesn t matter how big the jackpots get. They can keep it because we absolutely will not play. Greed has g

Mega Millions Lottery
The odds of winning the jackpot are reduced to 1 in 258.9 million; however, odds of winning any prize will increase to 1 in 14. Somebody should edit the Wikipedia article because the jackpot odds are increased and the bonus number odds are decreased. It looks like MUSL was trying to find a way to create a $1 million secondary prize without raising the price of a ticket and give their players who never win anything a chance of winning something. The decision of paying $1 for matching the
