Now I'm annoyed about 20 million jackpot startsReply
More people are as frustrated like you are , and are not playing it.. so, in an effort to keep serious players from totally abandoning the Game, they release a few low Jackpots as advertisement..if not , you'd be waiting forever to play a 600 Million - 1.5 Billion Jackpot at the current turnover rate... -Stat$talker

Has lottery courier service turned into a betting platform?Reply
Back in the day TheLotter booked their own bets, they only paid a percentage of the jackpots and even that had a limit. They began buying actual tickets some time ago. Maybe there are games they can buy tickets for and those they can't, but still want to offer wagering on. Look at what they say they are paying or the size of their promoted jackpot compared to the actual. Not saying anything has changed. BobP

I'm surprised the reason they gave didn't start with: Due to Covid 19... This begs the larger question of previous jackpots that have been split and paid out ~ What's the ratio of QP's to selected numbers? Surely they can answer that now that prizes have been paid out.

Pandemic continues to batter state lotteries and programsReply
Noticed the MegaMillions and PowerBall are taking 2x or 3x as long to grow their Jackpots.

Illinois Lottery decreases Lotto jackpot incrementsReply
Not a feel good story for those that play that Lotto. Soon other states I fear will follow suit. Who's with me saying these changes will result in less folks playing? But them again I'm a hypocrite saying no more MM or PB for me unless sky high jackpots come to fruition...I'm playing just as much as ever!!

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
This really has me reconsidering going after big lottery pay-offs. If interest rates were worth anything, I'd say they were trying to hold on to prize money to accrue some interest. But interest rates are in the crapper. Lottery sales are obviously down, if the lower starting jackpots of Mega Millions and Powerball are any indication. I'm thinking I'll stick with the $500 Madness, at least I can count on Publix to cash it!

NJ Lottery announces new evening draw times and other changesReply
Don't Do It! We already have Games with Bigger Jackpots (That are all but impossible to Win)! Making a Game the Players have a Chance of Winning Harder to Win isn't what Players Want!

A Probable + EV Game? Need Help Confirming.Reply
I can also tell you that with the lottery games, I've seen that there are things that seem to just line up when a jackpot does come about on an inner look. Seen it many times. Not sure of why, but the numbers themselves do tend to compare favorably when a jackpot does get won. For the most part that is. I do not know if amount of bettors has anything to do with it or not, but can't see how it would other than the chance that most of or all the number combinations had been picked. But as far as m

Group playReply
when the jackpot reached half a billion or higher. Guess you won't be playing for a while considering both jackpots were hit last week. But if you decide to play, simply scan the tickets and send the copies using email. Or you could use the same method you use to collect the money to distribute copies of the tickets.
