$1000 a week for life? So whatReply
After reading this thread I just had to get some Win For Life tickets last night but I only matched two numbers and didn't win anything. Win For Life is a multi-state (Kentucky, Georgia, and Virginia) game where they draw 6 numbers from a pool of 42 (6/42) and then draw 1 more number as a bonus ball. It's not matching any 6 numbers out of the 7 drawn because the bonus ball is not used for the grand prize, but if you match any 5 numbers plus the bonus ball, you'll win $52,000. The payments for th

UK Lottery operator plans $500 million global lottery gameReply
I'd rather spend the money for a game with better odds. After blowing $20 for one Florida Raffle ticket, I would never play another game with a $20 ticket price. The odds for that game were only 125,000 to 1 and I still didn't win anything. The only way I'll ever play another raffle game is if they add a few hundred $1,000 prizes and maybe some $500 or $100 prizes, or if they lower the ticket price. At least with a lot of lower tier prizes, a player has a chance of getting his money back.
