Florida Fantasy-5 PlayersReply
It's Saturday and that reminded me that there are a couple of things I should have added to my post with the stats about jackpots won during the first quarter of 2022. I've previously posted in this thread about how there are usually multiple jackpot winners on Saturdays, and that's generally true. But there were five players that won an entire Saturday jackpot. So far this year, the largest jackpot amount was $217,012 which was (as you might expect) a Saturday (February 12th) but it was s

VIDEO: Lead Director of Mega Millions discusses potential game changesReply
If they go to $5 a ticket, does that mean it will now be $6 or $7 if you want the megaplier? I think that will hurt sales a lot. They do need to reduce the matrix to make it easier so there can be more winners. Everybody says they want bigger jackpots or, I won't play till it reaches 500 mill. But if someone was winning 100 mill every 3rd or 4th drawing I don't know anyone that would turn it down if they won it.

Take5 NYReply
3 out of the last 15 games had jackpot winners. 3!!! And the jackpots are about 1/3 less than what they used to be. Are you serious? New York? New Yorkers? This is the best you got???? Since when.... Wake up. Enough with the talk. This ain't Brazil.

250 member Facebook group wins and splits $126 million Australian Powerball jackpotReply
For their AUD$100 they bought a share of about 24 x system 12 (all possible combinations of 7 numbers from a set of 12 (about 792 lines per entry)) They probably only do this for very large jackpots

Last night: 1 3 8 11 25 Well I guess you're surprised today too because once again there were 6 winners! At first, I thought that there was one winner who bought the same line/combo multiple times, or that they were players picking numbers using their kids birthdays. Then I looked at the Top Prize Winners Report. Four of the six winners were QP's!! That almost removes the kids birthdays from the equation. My guess is the two player picked winners used their kids birthdays, but the QP's, ca

Claiming winning tickets in NJReply
Every state has at least one lottery claim center, and most have more than one. Jackpots typically need to be claimed at some subset of claim centers, often at only at one particular center that's likely to be where HQ is. The reason you shouldn't buy tickets in NJ is that any taxable win will require filing a return in NJ, and possibly paying more than you would at home.

Pennsylvania Lottery awards its largest online prize everReply
Currently eight states offer Online lottery wagering, but unlike in the UK with a national lottery, in the U.S. each lottery jurisdiction makes their own lottery related decisions. Because the funds are pooled to create MM and PB jackpots, many people believe they are national lotteries IE until they try to cash their ticket in another state. All secondary prizes in those games are paid by the state lottery that sold the ticket. Last May someone won $2 million in North Carolina playing PB Onl

Virginia University math major scoops up $1 million lottery prizeReply
Virginia's BM apparently is one of the easiest to win jackpots because it only has 40 numbers. He can now go hire someone to create a program and sell it as lottery secret formula software

Is there anything you like about other states l lotteries?Reply
I'm in Florida. Fantasy5 is an all or nothing type game. Jackpots are in the range of $180,000 to $200,000 but lower tier prizes are small. I'm good with that.. it's a 5/36 matrix which gives pretty good odds to win a jackpot. Jackpot Triple Play is a good game to play provided the jackpot climbs above $1,000,000. G5

Why do you so crave recognition from strangers who neither like you nor respect you, and consider you dumber than a box of burnt rocks? If you are confident in your math genius and believe you can predict the lottery with $29.99 software and 8th grade level math, then go win your jackpots, sip your booze on the beach, and stop caring what anyone thinks of you and your probabillybob math. What kind of math genius fills his diaper over a Gail Howard discussion?
