Once homeless, now a lottery winner: Colorado man gets his $1 million comebackReply
It's nice to see the Colorado Lottery in the news. I've played the 200X game a few times. One time I won $50. He's been playing scratch-off games on and off for a few years, he told the Colorado Lottery, but only when he could afford to . Jonathan will usually stick to the $5 games, recalling that the largest amount he'd ever won was $20. ... I was having a tough sales day , and it actually paid off, Jonathan recalled. My reaction was total disbelief. Those are oppos

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
You might say it just had to happen - was at Publix this morning and who do I see there ? BIG JIM and Steve the midget - hanging around the ticket machine shooting the breeze - I went up to the counter to check things out and the gal who knows me said Hey you were looking for 100X tickets - my boss just found a roll in the safe along with other tickets - do you want it ?

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
This doesn't make sense - what's your take ? I go to the ticket machine at Publix and buy five GRT's from one bin - here in the exact order is what came out - #002 - 024 - 001 - 023 - 000 ! How could that be ? How could tickets from a machine come out with mixed numbers ? Anyway I got 4 losers and one $30 winner. I tried 15 Super Millions the other day and got ONE $20 !! I'll never buy these again Thanks

Instant Game tickets from Machines
Do you or have you purchased scratch tickets from the Lottery machines ? If so, do you like to or do you feel that they are not winners ?? There is an instant ticket machine at the local Kroger. I get tickets there sometimes. Bought 2 $5 hold em poker tickets there Friday and one hit for $50.

$420 million of lottery jackpots in two daysReply
No and yes. Sort of. I specifically referred to PB's cap that was instituted about a year (?) ago. That cap is specifically imposed by the rules. When the annuity jackpot reaches the highest amount it has reached previously the rollovers are limited to an increase of 25 million. The current maximum is 340, so if nobody wins the next draw the most it will be for Saturday is 365. The next draw could be less than 365 if ticket sales aren't high enough. My guess is that the amount advertised if i
