Hoosier LotteryReply
That's right...the Hoosier Lottery gave away more free tickets than they paid out in total prizes to all winners at all levels. That's not a very good argument because a free ticket (2/6) IS A PRIZE. Look at the odds: Match 6 OF 6 JACKPOT 1:12,271,512 Match 5 OF 6 Approximately $1,000 (Pari-Mutuel) 1:48,696 Match 4 OF

Penn. Lottery contributions decline for first time in 6 yearsNews Story
Lottery Not Blaming Slots for Flat Sales Pennsylvania's lottery sales stumbled in the just-ended fiscal year as slot machines came on line finishing flat after a half-decade of huge gains spurred by bigger games, more retailers and glitzier advertising. After subtracting expenses, commissions and prize money, the lottery contributed less money to state coffers than the prior year for the first time since 2001. State lottery officials insisted the arrival of slot-machine gambling in

Everybody Says This Is A Neat Story Growing up very close to the Indianapolis 500 track certainly had its advantages. My step father, Robert L. Dillman, sold Fords from about 1943 until 1952. We lived at 1401 Exeter from 1943 until sometime in 1952. As you travel east on 16th street from the track, you will hit Exeter about one-half of a mile from the famous brickyard. I grew up hearing the roar of Offenhauser engines screaming around the most beautiful track in the world. I am cer

Yes, it's very simple. First, write down vertically from 0-9, 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Then just fill in the same two numbers that you think might come out in all 10 spots from 0 to 9: Lets say it's 28: 028 128 228- Due in Florida 328 428 528 628 728 828 928 You've just eliminated 900 possiblities. With this system, your new odds are only 100 to 1, instead of 1000 to 1. This was the first system I posted, which I created when

CA midday: Time for a double?
Not only CA midday is missing a double, for 26 draws now, but also SC eve, TN midday and NY eve are kinda slow on doubles right now. SC eve: 13 draws TN midday: 12 draws NY eve: 11 draws Yesterday was doubletime, out of 56 draws nationwide, 23 of them were doubles. So those odds are against playing a double today. Still, one of those states, or more, needs a double. What else is happening in those states: CA midday: 3-Digit-Serie; 2, 3, 5 Longest out doubles: 688, 007, 466,

Someone explain...Reply
I discovered this some time ago in Florida. The small prize scratch games only seem like the better bet to win the smaller top prize. Any thinking lottery player would conclude a scratch game with a top prize of $100. would offer a much better chance of winning. This isn't always the case as we compare . . . Fun Money Market Windfall Ticket ($2 value) 1 in 8.33 1 in 7.50 $2. 1 in 25.00 1 in 25.00 $4. 1 in 3

Georgia couple wins $1 million lottery raffle prizeNews Story
Jim Fain couldn't believe his eyes. His wife, Tina Beckham-Fain, sat on the floor of their Milledgeville home reading the number on the first of five lottery tickets they bought for the Millionaire Raffle as he looked at the winning combination on the Georgia Lottery Web site. Beckham-Fain read 285704. Unsure of what he was seeing on his computer, Fain then asked her to read the screen. She did and the numbers matched. I started to hyperventilate, said Fain, a 42-year-old corpor

D.C. Lottery hopes raffle will bring fiscal successNews Story
The D.C. Lottery's Quick Cash game had been around for more than 15 years when Todd Zimmerman walked into Rodman's Drugs in Northwest in February 2005 and bought two $1 tickets. With three games on each ticket, the government contractor won the maximum $250,000 jackpot for each of the six games. But the improbable $1.5 million payout also helped put the D.C. Lottery's Quick Cash game more than $640,000 in the red for the year, records show. Within months, the game was canceled, although lo

Paranoid or Prudent?Reply
You're dealing with the dirtiest industry I've ever seen in my 30 years of doing business... -former Kentucky Lottery CFO Russ Davidson as quoted in the Atlanta Journal Constitution While this remark has no context attached to it, I do believe it generally reflects the nature of the Lottery industry in the United States and indeed worldwide. I joined Lottery Post in good faith just as I played the Lottery in good faith. But my experience with
