For those going for 5 + 0 in PB and MMReply
Doing that for MM would make it a game with a $1M jackpot with odds of 1:17M of winning it. Why would anyone want to play it when there are 6/49 games with jackpots of $50M+ with odds of 1:14M of winning?

Let's just say the 75 number MM never gets hit...Reply
I thought they did the change so that they could get huge jackpots... Wouldn't reducing the matrix be an admission of their stupidity? I don't think they'll reduce the matrix. Not even if this thing reaches two-billion.

Do you see further " modifications" to the MM game should the betting public stay away?Reply
The jackpots are growing larger since the matrix change. It went up $17 million annuity this last roll over and like 8 to 9 million cash value. Mega is growing better than the old mega in the early stages. We will just have to see if the jackpot can get bigger once it is over $300 million and more.-weshar75

I doubt they have seen a huge impact in ticket sales. As long as the average Joe sees a huge jackpot and it only cost $1 compared to the $2 PB, they will buy the tickets and probably buy more since it only costs $1. MM is counting on the huge jackpots it will produce to make money, it may start slow but you we are going to see record ticket sales every few months.

Why do you play the lottery?Reply
I would like to win to help out my family and since I play powerball and mega millions the jackpots that they put up could really let me help out nicely. Now if only I could get the winning numbers on one of my tickets. The hard part.-weshar75

The New Mega Millions Game - So Do You Like It Or Not?Reply
I like it, the odds at nuts, but I like the idea of bigger jackpots which I'm sure the new odds will create. I still only play 1 ticket per draw and so far have won $2.

Florida Lotto - No Winners Since August - 19 DrawingsReply
Yes, fewer people playing Lotto now. Lotto had another 30+ draw run without a winner earlier this year and the jackpot got to almost $60 million which is a rare event for Florida Lotto these days. I remember those earlier days of $100+ million Lotto jackpots...

Playing the same numbers for years or changing up from draw to draw?Reply
I don't think I can even understand the system you stated..how does one play birthday numbers on one line AND QP on another..I'm so confused by this system already!! You're bound to win several jackpots with that method. Good Luck...like you even need it. Your System is Golden!

Treasure HuntReply
I used to live in PA. My sister still does. I have tried to convince her to play Treasure Hunt all the time but she is hung up on the big jackpots. I'd be happy with some small wins! Yes, Treasure hunt has the best odds, I think better than ANY game. I would play it regularly if I lived in PA.

Florida man wins multimillion lottery jackpot for 2nd timeReply
That's becuase most old folks have nothing else to do so they spend more time playing the lotto and bingo. Younger people do win jackpots but there is hardly any news about them. Just last year there was a 28 year od who won $35 million in Toronto, and a 22 yeard old winning $30 million in meag millions.
