Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Something fishy going on with 100X for sure. Yesterday at the Orlando district office there were well over 25 people in front of me and at least half had 100X winning tickets. Not a single winner cashed in for over $1000.00....The reason i know this is every person who presents the winning ticket at the window has it scanned and there is a digital cash register screen for all to see that displays the amount won. It kept flashing $1000 after each person and I thought it was strange but so was giv

One lottery ticket sold in New Jersey wins $521 million Mega Millions jackpotReply
I have seen many things that make me wonder about the validity of the game. I actually think the odds are worse than the odds the MM and PB post on their websites. For example they say odds are 1 in 292 Million, or whatever because that is the number of combinations of numbers. But the reality is when you buy Quick pick they are given the same number to other people. I have been playing for decades but one example is i bought a ticket at 7-11 in Newport News, Virginia in 2014 and the guy in fron

Hey gatorsrok, I will go a step further and say the new 100X is a terrible game. Seriously, it sucks on all fronts and I cannot believe after 30 years to get it right the lottery comes up with this game. 1304:1 to hit $500 on a $30 game is beyond ridiculous and I have let the lottery know it. Once the initial hysteria calms down this game has the potential to be a really dud and slow selling loser for the lottery. I like to buy packs of new games and have already encountered two sealed pack

Lotto America multi-state lottery game tickets on sale SundayReply
True, most players have no idea of game features, odds, payback, etc. Ultimately, it comes down to luck, so if Lotto America was offered in PA, I'd likely play it occasionally. Lotto America is trading on an old name that doesn't seem relevant. Lack of creativity, but maybe the experts know what they're doing... We'll see. You're spot on about NY Lotto. Insane odds and payback of only 40%. 1 in 46 of winning anything; most likely $1 or $20-$30. That makes Lotto America look great in compariso

I Am Not Impressed. (MM)
So on the Calif state lotto site, they say: Odds are changing: The overall odds of winning any prize changes from 1 in 14.71 to 1 in 24.12. The Jackpot odds change from 1 in 259 million to 1 in 303 million. Not only do they make it more difficult to win te jackpot, they make it more difficult to win the smaller prizes, too. They will also be smaller. This stinks!

Odd Brits furious that lottery jackpot is so highReply
I can certainly understand the frustration of seeing the game a long time gambler's been devoted to become a game that has a jackpot win ... only every few months, instead of every few weeks. [It's painful to stop a long-time gambling habit/commitment when the game that met your objectives is suddenly taken away, with no plans to ever replace those acceptable odds of winning again.] Anyhow, I presume those devoted players will soon stop their gambling, since the odds game they liked is gone/n

Mega Millions Matrix and Odds change
The countdown is on for the MM matrix/odds and price changes. A multi-draw ticket can only be purchased for 14 advanced draws (to date), with the last draw before the change being October 27, 2017. As such, why is there not an advance notice by MUSL making consumers aware of the forthcoming changes? Why must such a change come forth through participants such as New York's lottery regulator? A web search of the change centers around New York commentary and not MUSL. I purchased an advance dra

Congrats skeptic and adam on the string of wins. I'm glad that some people here are on fire. I'm hoping my luck comes back soon. @oldghost - I agree that the cornhole odds are pretty bad. $2 for 1 in 360,000 odds for $10,000 is not very appealing. Fantasy 5 has 1 in 377,000 odds for a $200,000 top prize and it's only $1 ticket. I suspect there will be lots of lower tier prizes such as $2, $5 and $10 winners. It kind of reminds me of the Lucky Lines game that they discontinued after 6 months o
