Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
We've had that game and it can be, like, 20 tickets (accumulatively, but probably consecutively too) to hit just $50. And it demoralizes more than usual because there's no prospect for a life changing sum. Anyway, ours is 1-in-10/47, and I bet that 1-in-12/36/1000 odds can be vexing. A $10 ticket with almost 1:9 overall odds will set you back significantly if you do not overcome at least the lowest-ranking tier.

The new $10 game seems to be selling like candy. Alot of people like the 1 in 8.88 odds, considering they can turn $10 into $50 fairly easily. This game was sold out at the Publix I visited... Examining the game's odds (1/12 = $50 winner), there should be about 5 $50 winners per book and with odds of (1/35) at winning $100 there should be at least a $100 winner in each book. These are averages, so some books may have 2 or more $100 winners and some may have 0. I would also like to see wh

North Carolina: 4/1 - 4/30/2019Reply
They told me at the lottery claims office one time that it does not mean literally one in every 5 is a winner...they said it means 1 in 5 overall odds...here's what they say on the website and it also says it on the back of the cards. What does Overall Odds mean? Overall odds provide the average amount of winning tickets per game. For example, if a game has odds of 1 in 4, which means for all of the tickets in the entire game, there will be one winning ticket per every four tickets. Howeve

In CA the $50 or $100! odds are 1 in 10 and 1 in 47. You have us beat pretty good with the $100 tier... And the fact that there's a $500 prize at all is that much better. Even though 1 in a 1000 is kind of unrealistic at $10 a ticket. If you have odds at approximately 1 in 10 to get $50, then you have a significantly better scratcher than us!

The $100 are are respectable given its a $10 game. The $500 odds are a little rough given that the Full of $500s game was $5 and had 1 in 600 odds at $500 with multiple other prize tiers.

Canada's Lotto Max to increase jackpot, add drawing in MayReply
I was looking in general and those quotes I provided were from 3 different websites. I was not on an official fact finding mission. More out of curiosity on why a lottery ticket costs $5 each. Then how the odds went up that no website article I viewed explained until Lottobux passed along the new odds numbers.

All or Nothing? No thanks. Odds are 1 in 705K. Better off playing Badger when it gets around 100K, the odds are much better. The only draw back is you have to split the JP.

Would the prize structure for MM & PB be changed?Reply
Personally I do not play PB or MM because of the ridiculous odds and relatively puny prizes in California with our pari-mutuel payout system. But I don't think higher taxes on jackpots would much deter the typical player from playing, so I don't think the people who run PB and MM would have any incentive to change the prize structures. Even as the odds on these games have gotten worse and worse over the decades people still play. (BTW, California does not tax lottery prizes won in-state. Only fe

If that was the number of tickets, then the odds of the top prize would be 1 in many millions, not very good odds for the prizes offered. I would think the first drawing would have more entries than the later drawings as many people were entering tickets from the older red GRC tickets from past months. There were also some that are probably holding out and entering them in the later drawings. It's all about luck.

Florida lottery to roll out new gameReply
The odds and chances of winning depends on how individual players express the percentages. A 1 in 10 chance sounds much better than 1000 ways to win and 9000 ways to lose. And apparently lots of people here despite 300 million possible outcomes believe they have an excellent chance of winning PB and/or MM. Best Odds to Win A Million Dollars You can get 1000 to 1 odds to win $1 million playing pick-3, but you have to wager $2000. Knew a guy that bet a $100 straight and $100 box on a pick-
