where in the world would you live if you hit a jackpot?Reply
I would continue to maintain my present house and perhaps another one in a more upscale area of Chicago (would have to do that to have a suitable place to park my luxury cars...luxury cars in my current neighborhood are Mercedes, Volvos, and Lexus...my type of luxury cars are Maseratis and Bentleys). I would also purchase houses in Florida, Atlanta, and Texas so I would have places to stay in overseeing my financial service operations as well as my trucking enterprise. Retire...no way. Only l

Missing LP MembersReply
Are you sure it isn't because of that third eye on your forehead, Pac? The abduction thing is no joke around here. That poor Fort Myers family from Guatemala still has not located their baby son, and probably never will. Imagine stealing a baby from his mother. There are some pretty bad people running human smuggling operations. In the case of the people from Guatemala, they grabbed the baby for past due payment. Really awful. I don't remember if you were living in Florida when an

Do you think they would make a new lottery movie...Reply
Maybe someone could make an episode of CBS NUMBERS in which the FBI are asked to investigate a person of interest who has won several lottery jackpots recently and they call on the mathematician to figure how it's being done. During the show they expose many of the math theories that might be used to improve ones odds of winning. Near the end the FBI figures out the drawings are a scam and the crooks doing it are also looking to bust this guy because he has hacked into their operations an

Illinois Is Putting Lottery on Block for Quick PayoffReply
That would be interesting. If a private company does own the lottery will then increase payouts as a way to compete in the marketplace? I mean lotteries pay on average 50% back as prizes because of the way the lottery was set up but if someone else gets their hands on it will that change? It seems like a scetchy plan though. The money would be nice now but putting a state ran operations in the hands of private companies could lead to many problems if the private owners have complete control

All Pick 6..All States TestReply
the procedure of submitting a statement to such conditions or operations as will lead to its proof or disproof or to its acceptance or rejection So what exacty are you testing? All I see is numbers with no explanation, so the only realistic assumption is that you intend to apply all of the numbers to all of the games for which you've posted results. You've listed enough numbers to account for about 3000 combinations, and you posted results from about 3 dozen games offering less than $

New PA Game - Mix And MatchReply
True, the value of the free ticket probably could be counted as a win, but maybe should not be figured in cash payout. As was pointed out, the ticket isn't worth the $2 payout. Also the State's retailer info page says that the jackpot should roll over every 5 draws on the average (please verify), so maybe $52,000 x 1/1,395,360 isn't a true % payout for that teir; 50% give or a take a little sounds more realistic. But still great for a draw game. It is well known that if all games, scr

Legal or not?Reply
luvny Will they pay up? If they're legitimate, yes, if they're not, no. For scammers that's why offshore operations (outside U.S. limits) are so tempting. Think of somebody playing with a bookie and not getting paid- What are they going to do, go to the police?

a poll about annuities and lump sumReply
I voted yes, and for the following reason. Advertising the so-called annuity jackpot is, to be frank, pretty decieving. Right now, the Mega Millions jackpot is $12,000,000, or so they say. In actuality, that couldn't be further from the truth. The top prize is really either about $7,000,000 or $480,000 per year for the next 25 years. Note neither of those options is the $12,000,000 advertised. On top of that, they don't mention the fact that Uncle Sam will be taking a big chunk of whatever you

Frist continues crusade against Internet gamblingReply
this frist guy is a complete idiot.whats does military operations have to do with internet gambling? _____ It has nothing to do with it .... but I've been incensed many times in the past when stupid legislation and pork Democrats stealthily attached to other bills and voted on in the middle of the night have become law. So if it passes I suppose people are going to have to adapt. That's the way Washington works like it or not.
