scratch card truthReply
First of all I'd like to state that none of this is meant in a negative or derogatory way to the OP, anyone who has already posted in this thread, or anyone that will after wards. There are two things being discussed here, and I feel it's important to separate them. The first being that lottery games are created with the notion that the game will be profitable to the state, and the second being how the winning tickets are being distributed. Lets start off with the idea

ILLINOIS LOTTERY MOVES TO COMPUTERIZED DRAWINGSNews Story
By Todd Northrop If the Illinois Lottery issued stocks, now would be the time to sell. Despite widespread player sentiment that is strongly against computerized drawings, the Illinois Lottery stated Friday that it is dropping real lottery ball drawings, and moving to the despised computerized draws. Computerized drawings are conducted by having a computer system that picks the winning numbers using a Random Number Generator, or RNG . Players generally dislike the fact that it is imposs

Powerball Matrix Change - April 15, 2015Reply
Multiplier is included in base price - Oh alright i was confused by that part, now things click in my mind. Because the lower prizes are more likely to be won, in a real drawing the players would probably be happier Yea that was same logic of monopoly game, more winners make more people happy. How did they turn out for them? I have a feeling these same big shot lottery people who was thinking MMC was best idea in long time, are the same people cheering for this game change to h

Monopoly Millionaires gameReply
considered the possibility that whatever network picking up the TV show may have paid for the TV rights which would offset the costs of the show? Any proceeds from airing would pay for the production of the show, but not the actual costs to fund attendees or prize winners. Because it is a Monopoly-themed show, undoubetedly, Hasbro will be getting the largest chunk of monies, since it is their intellectual property. In fact, I think their studio is the one producing it. I will have to further

Weekly Daily Fantasy Football ThreadReply
I am SUPER EXCITED. They have just opened up the MILLIONAIRE MAKER game that goes off next Sunday October 5th. The entry fee is just $27. There will be 92,400 entries. The top prize is $1,000,000! Truly your best odds of winning a million dollars. Not lottery can offer that. Also if the past few weeks is a good gauge this contest will probably overlay. That means the contest might pay out more money than they take in. Payback percentage that can be over 100%. My friends that is a lottery you MUS

Mathematics and the LotteryReply
You said so yourself, only a few managed to show a profit. Let's say 250 out of 25,000 or 1%. Run it again, go another 5 years, and only 2.5 survive this time. We'll say it's 3. A few is 0.1% of all wagers the lottery expects to lose. Had the winnings been equally distributed, each player lost 50% of their total bet. Because the rules of the simulation required each player to continue wagering $5 to win $500 regardless of how much they had lost, some players continued to lose and lost more

Some jackpot games filters ideasReply
hello, very good work, monel study of the termina oes (last digit) of a lottery number is a powerful filter, because a 6/49 lottery, separating the termina oes (0-9) can filter as if it were two pick3. positions = 1.2, pick3 3uma 4, 5, 6 other pick3, so everything up to today if you can evolve in forecast of pick3 also can use in a 6/49 lottery or similar, of course the initial digit does not enter the study, because also are few digits (0-4) and even certain digits in any positio

Millions in lottery winnings go unclaimed each yearNews Story
It is hard for some to believe, but even as some Americans dream of hitting it big in the Lotto, Powerball, and Mega Millions jackpots, for some it might have happened and whizzed by unnoticed. Happens all the time, says Illinois Lottery chief Michael Jones. People misinterpret whether they won or lost. People misplace tickets all the time. Jones said the lottery estimates about one percent of all lottery prizes go unclaimed. And, considering the Illinois games raked in about $3 billion
