I just broke the mold on quick picks
I just got back from buying my 5/39 quck pick and I have to share this with you. The machine gave me 5 consecutive digits. There are only 34 consecutive combinations out of a possible 575,757 combinations. I bought another quick pick to cover my bases. This was worth the price of the ticket and I think I'll tuck it under my box of Lucky Charms.Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I can't believe the Mega jackpot rolled!Reply
I don't find it hard to believe at all. We usually get some big jackpots around the holidays. I hope someone wins it before the year ends. And I hope I get a piece of the pot too.My quick pick had a 7 for the money ball and right away i thought this ticket was not going to win. To bad we can't trade a quick pick ticket in for a better selection.

quick pick vs. your own numbersReply
If you don't know how to pick your own combos, then by all means if you have to buy, then buy quick picks.On the other hand, if you really know how to pick your numbers do so and never, but never buy quick picks, they would be just a waste of your money, well picked numbers will more often (but not always) do better.

Powerball Jackpot Reaches $15 MillionReply
There are a lot of people who play the lottery but many of them don't or won't take the time to pick their own numbers. It doesn't fit into their busy lifestyle. Some people pick their own numbers and buy quick picks also. And it's just simpler/easier when you hit the ticket counter to say give me a couple quick picks for tonight's game.

quick pick vs. your own numbersReply
There have been numerous conversations about it...(use search icon on top of page). Yes it is true that 70-75% of the winners use quick pick...only because 70-75% choose quick pick options......most of the big winners are quick picks because thats when alot more people buy a ticket or two on their way home, and you have alot more pools involved,,,if you look at the smaller jackpot prize hits you'll see thats its usually more people picking their own numbers....

Lotto play questionReply
you may as well get some exercise and walk to the retailers, play some hand-picked sets of numbers, and a few quick picks, maybe do multi-draw, or get a second playslip, and fill out your hand-picked numbers, as well as the numbers from your qyick-picks (if you like them), that's the thing with subscriptions: if you don't like the quick pick numbers, you're stck with them. if you opt not to get the subscription, you can always never use those quick pick numbers again.

Really Strange Powerball ResultsReply
Now that is one f**ked up number combination. I would have thought, This is one bad quick pick, if those numbers came up on my quick pick. But as they always say, you never know what numbers will come out of the draw machine.

Almost a quarter of Lottery millionairesReply
If I had more money to blow I would use my wheel...but quick pick hasn't been too bad, last week I won $75 in Lotto South, not too bad for just doing one quick pick.MP
