Some lottery winners missing their jackpotsReply
The story called it a happy ending but someone died in there. The guy reading the paper didn't have such a happy ending. I caught that too. Poor choice of words I guess. You won 5/5 ?? Then you won a pick-4 straight? Good job! Although people on this board always say don't tell anyone when you win this article is why I think it's important to trust at least one person. I mean, what if I put the ticket in a safe deposit box and while I was making plans to move, got into a

Time and the Lottery Draw - The ConnectionReply
I believe the timing or being in sync with a game might be the most important part of any gaming. For instance, you're playing Blackjack and are dealt 16 and the dealers up-card is 6. Basic playing strategy suggests that you stand, the dealer's down-card is a face, they must hit, turn over a 5 for 21 and you lose. Let's play the same hand but instead of the up-card being a 6, we'll use the face as the up-card. Now basic strategy tells you to take a hit, getting that 5 for 21, and will probably w

Hoosier Lotto in a dry spellReply
I really don't see how it could be a fraction of a percent though. In the body of the article it says the math professor estimated the odds as a fraction of a percent, but at the bottom it says a miniscule fraction of a percent . We may have to guess at how many combinations are being sold, but the math is easy and a minsicule fraction of a percent is close enough. The chances of not having a winner for any given number of drawings is calculated by multiplying the chances of not havin

Record powerball lottery winner reflects on sad lifeReply
Jack Whittaker seems to, even after a 6 year weird and strange ride, gotten is life together. He doesn't seem like what has happened to him has beaten him. Compare him to David Edwards, who only lives about 50 miles down the road in Kentucky, who isn't made of the same stuff and, when given the big bucks blew up like the space shuttle. He, according to the latest story, either is on his deathbed in a rural KY hospital or recouperating nearby. And broke. Edwards turned his cash on himsel

Official wants fraud probe of Tennessee LotteryReply
from the article: A lottery depends on its integrity, and so, you always want to rule that out,'' Ripley said in a telephone interview Monday. I have seen absolutely no evidence of fraud at this point.'' _________________________________________ Isn't that the problem? Isn't that our POINT??? When mechanical drawings are compromised, everyone can see it; when computer drawings are purposely sabotaged, no one can see it except a programmer who scrutinizes the code line b

Lottery winner goes from rags to riches to ragsNews Story
For David Lee Edwards, winning the lottery was a wild rocket ride In the fall of 2006, David Lee Edwards and his wife, Shawna, decorated their front door for Halloween. But if trick-or-treaters made it to the couple's home, a storage unit in Riviera Beach, no plastic ghost was as scary as what they'd have found inside: two pale, withered junkies from Kentucky living amid dirty clothes, rotting food, and their own filth. And these were lottery winners. Today, with David on what could be

tennessee RNG is hell.grrrrrrrrReply
I have no doubt the balls a real, and that they can be tested and all that. That is not what I was questioning. I also concede that the code can be manipulated. But what I'm asking is for someone to tell me that by rotating the tubes, and doing pretests, that the natural flow of the outcome of certain numbers within that tube are not being affected. Of course they are. For just one example of many more, Let's say within the tube position one, the number 8 has been out for 60 days. Why d

The truth we hope to tell you all.Reply
I'm missing the poker part... Also, the chart provided for the UK game (the only one I clicked on from the geocities site) is more than a bit confusing. Your link for the Pigeon-hole principle is busted too, here is the working link for the wiki article Pigeonhole Principle If what you are doing is a genuine attempt at offering free info with no bait-and-switch or eventual fees, maybe I can work with you to make a more readable excel chart, and maybe even apply it to some of the

Lottery Winner's Lucky Day Turns into One Heck of a MessReply
Imagine you just found out you won $25,000 in the lottery. You get a receipt but in your haste, you actually leave the ticket at the store. Disagree. In fact, if she got a receipt for the winning ticket after validation, how did the clerks cash it in at Lottery Headquarters? I'm not stupid, but am I missing something here? When you scan a ticket, doesn't it have a bar code that is read? Then the terminal indicates winner or no winner so how can it be scanned and processed A
