Statistics questionReply
Before you could calculate the odds of there being 14 winners in any lottery game the number of tickets sold would be necessary. Everybody and their brother doesn't quite cut it. RJOh's figures of x of 7 if 11 of 80 are correct - no missing zeroes. I do my calcs with a spreadsheet. 7 Spot - 11/80BetHitsPossibilitiesOdds - 1:: 31767164001010788972482.94 113186521922.41 26181182155.14 314264266522.27 417290020183.73 510838522930.95 63187899652.31

I disagree. So what if it adds up to more than the sum total of all the other prizes. There's nothing wrong with that because 2/6 is VERY, VERY EASY to get. Lets look at odds for 2/6 and 3/6: Match 3 OF 6 $3 1:53.45 Match 2 OF 6 Free Quick Pick 1:7.31 So, mathematically, 2/6 is 7.311 times easier to win. Now lets look at the payouts for the last draw for 2/6 and 3/6: 3/

Raffle rules applied to a jackpot gameReply
There are major problems with not having a drawing for a typical jackpot game until every single combination has been sold. The main one is how difficult it would be to sell all of the combinations. The frenzy over raffles is produced by the perception that the odds are better and the fear of not getting a ticket while they're available, and that won't exist for the game you suggest. I can promise you that plenty of people play 1 2 3 4 5 6 for every drawing (I had a coworker who was one o

It's a wheel, a cover design. 2if3in10digits8lines (10,3,2,3)=8 On a day when all different digits are drawn you will have at least one line with 2 of the 3 winning digits. As you already have a line with 2 of the 3 winning digits before the draw, there are only 8 possible remaining digits for the third position, therefore your odds of winning a box prize have dropped from 1 in 220 to 1 in 8. Of course this is just 8 of the 220 numbers you can't keep playing them expecting to win over a

California, Delaware & Washington, D.C.
This list was created as an everyday list that never changes. More for an online box hit at this time. Still working on a set pattern box/straight between these 3 states. Generally, 1 to 2 of these 3 states (California, Delaware Washington, D.C.) have great odds hitting from this list on a daily bases. It was research back to 1 year to insure my findings.

Prizes totaling $7.35 million (58.8% of sales) will be awarded to players. The lottery's excess cash is maintained in an account managed by the
