Powerball changing in October to generate bigger jackpotsReply
This will backfire, most players are after the JP and couldn't care less about the lower prizes. How many times do you hear about 2nd prize winners that didn't play the MP ? And some don't even know there are lower prizes... the casual players that only buy when the JP is outsize, isn't that who they're trying to attract ? I was only playing when I could go to Delaware for tix. after the change when I do that it will be MM only. MM having slightly better odds for half the pri

Take5 NYReply
Very sound advice Butch...very sound and thanks for posting here. I too have my limit. I can afford to play more lines/games than I actually do. To me, the lottery is a sucker bet. I play it because I enjoy tracking NY Take5 numbers and trying to come up with a strategy that might win me some money. As for PB MM, I'm in a pool at work, but we don't play either MM or PB unless one or the other has a jackpot above 200 million. Even then, we play one drawing per week, usually the Friday nigh

Looking for someone with their Masters Degree in ExcelReply
Haven't checked on the tutorials. I read his T-lex thread some time ago, the program has a lot more enhancements than the old one. His videos would be a good start. I need to reread that thread. Download it and see how much of it has changed. The daunting task is understanding what lexicons are, what they are used for, and why they are needed. Never got around to figuring those out. The idea of omitting numbers 1 thru 4 got me thinking. Combinations that start with 1 thru 4 in Texas Two St

Florida man out $92,000 after losing winning lottery ticketsReply
I was thinking along those lines as I was reading the story and then I read your post ... being that he sells lottery tickets and if he has a clean record with the lottery, they might have worked with him ... and still might. However, they probably must have the tickets to keep it proper and fair to other players ... but there are exceptions made at times. He might have some luck in that regard. If none of the tickets are ever cashed ... what are the odds that no one would ever cash all th

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
In some respect, it is a little comforting to know that at least one more million dollar prize was floating around. The lotto website shows six $1M prizes remaining. But their press release today on the winner was silent on the number of prizes. The release simply said: The $25 game, 100X THE CASH, offers top prizes of $1 million and $5 million. The game's overall odds of winning are one-in-2.86. I think they know that there are not six $1M prizes floating around. At this point,maybe the

Re: Mid-Keys - 9,4,5 Just looking at my Base 5 (Mirror) data base. You have probably noticed that 4 and 9 have been a feature of a lot of draws lately. In fact, Mirror 4 (4,9) has hit 9 times in a row. This is a rare event, only happening 8 times in 3 years. Of those 8, 66% (5 runs) ended at 9 in a row, 2 more ended at 10 in a row and the final one ran all the way to 13 times in a row! I'm thinking that the odds are that we are finished with the 4,9 set today, if not at Midday then at

My guess with them pulling the 100X tix back is that with the remaining unclaimed winners and the overall odds, the chances of winning a prize was reduced from 2.86, and well, the lottery just can't have that. Anyway I stopped at Micanopy Chevron to see if the roll I had played (and lost on early) was still there or had been picked up. It was still there and on number 20 so they hadn't sold too many since I was there a few weeks ago. The ATM was out of cash. I tried to take $100, but only

Camelot to change UK Lottery from 6/49 draw to 6/59 draw!
I could not believe my eyes when I read the changes planned by UK operators Camelot, which will take place in October. Camelot plan to increase the ballset by TEN numbers, from the current 49 to 59 numbers, increasing the odds against the player from the current 14-million-to-one to *45-million to one*! Yet Camelot have the audacity/gall to clearly state that players will have *more* chances of becoming a millionaire when the changes take place. To justify this wild claim, Came
