Ohio649P & Megamillion both $15M
Ohio649P with odds of 1:13,983,816 and Magamillions with odds of 1:135,145,920 both have jackpots of $15M. Ohioians will have to decide if they want to win $15M the hard way of the easy way. It will be interesting to see which game sells more tickets for Tuesday and Wednesday drawings.Good luck Ohio players.RJOh

QUINTO (Washington state)Reply
To Cash OnlyIf the Quinto game was changed to a 5/39 game, the odds of winning the jackpot would be 1:575,757 and no State would be dumb enough to offer even a $1/2M jackpot with those odds. If you are e-mailing state lottery commissions with those kinds of ideas, don't expect any replies. RJOh

Do lottery systems really work?Reply
All these opinions are interesting, but it would be more helpful to hear the strategies of those players who have actually won a jackpot or have come close several times. There is nothing wrong with having no strategy and depending on luck, but we all know the odds of being lucky, it printed on the back of the playslip. Players who use systems are trying to lower the odds and it would be interesting to hear from those who think they have been succesful. RJOh

PA Super-6Reply
Actually the payouts for Super 6 are not low as comparied to other state games. It's just the excessive odds of 40 million to 1 to win a grand prize where all the other 6 number games are a third to half of those odds. Now New York has really low paying prizes for it's 6/59 game. Michigan's Winfall is by far the better game.

Gail Howard's SoftwareReply
There are a lot of ways to reduce the odds of lottery. Anyone who have taken statistics and mathmatics courses in college can easily figure out and learn those principle and formulas. The key is the odds is still so large that it doesn't help much.Gail Howard just wrote those books to summarize some simple principles in statistics. There is no big deal. She exaggerated her ability too much, and she charges too much for those books. IMO

Megamillions picks...01/28/03Reply
Buck,how is that improving your odds. whether you spend 5 mins or 5 hours, you did spend time analyzing #s.how is picking the the most recently picked #s improving your odds? are you stating that if a # was picked 10X in the last 50 draws, that # has a better chance of coming up tonite rather than a # that was only picked once in the last 50 draws. if you are saying this, how do you explain this?

MM, Powerball Keeps Growing
Another draw, still no big winners....$66M for Tuesday's draw... not too shabby. Ever wonder if both MegaMillions and Powerball hits $300M at the same time... what are the odds?Speaking of odds, many people play both games on a consistent basis, ever wonder what one would feel if he or she won both the jackpots and is the sole single ticket holder in both games. hmmm, wonder if we'll ever live to see that happen.

Powerball and Mega Millions OddsReply
The odds posted for getting just the Powerball or just the Mega Ball are just that: getting the bonus, with matching NO OTHER NUMBERS. There is a possibility that you would match the bonus ball + one of the first five numbers: the odds of matching just the bonus ball do not include that.
