Mega Millions Sets A New RecordReply
Yes I agree it is to do with the interest rake hikes. The states are expecting more from the annuities and that is why they are getting bigger jackpots. Nothing wrong with that. Brad

Bonus ball bounced by Lotto TexasReply
Texas has talked about adding Pick 4 for a long time - but there was consensus within the lotttery (misguided, in my opinion) that offering Pick 4 (and thereby adding another game) would constitute an expansion of gaming . TX has by far the most successful Pick 3 game west of the Mississippi - they could probably pick up an incremental 6 cents weekly per cap. Nice thing about daily numbers games, they tend to increase with very little advertising just above the rate of inflation - the

Unclaimed JackpotsReply
It's the same in WA state and some other states. I usually only play Quinto as a local game so it doesn't matter. As far as unclaimed pots it would be nice if some of that money ended up raising the jackpots instead of wasted by our legislature.

Florida Lottery = PatheticReply
I agree the web site for Florida lottery needs a new administrator. Either their system can't handle the number of people trying to check numbers at 11pm est so they take it off line or the site crashes. They need to do some work on the server or hire a better Admin. I still will offer my skills to them pro bono after I win the FL lotto jackpot. LOL However as for the lottery itself I enjoy playing the FL lotto, Cash 3, and some of their scratch games. The payouts are better than some state

New lotto motto'sReply
Jim - The person you spoke to almost got it right. It was never easy to win Powerball, but MUSL did decide that it was too easy to get a winner. I'm not sure that there was a direct connection, but the change was made after a string of jackpots that were won within the first couple of rolls. As near as I can tell, Powerball officials don't actually understand probability. Of course winners aren't bad for Powerball. Winners who win in the first few rolls are bad for Powerball, because all o

I predict Powerball will rollReply
Good prediction, Todd! And, personally, good to see PB jackpot getting bigger. In my case, the only problem is how to allocate my lottery budget among so many good-looking jackpots. MM, PB, FL, EM, and still more...

Multiple jackpot wins question?Reply
I know the possibility and probability of winning both jackpots even months or years apart is probably 1 in a billion. But a lifetime of weird coincidences says there always a chance there's always that last card in the deck when you have the best cards that comes off and gives your opponent the win. I know it's unlikly and I'd probably be so busy with travel and charity once I won one jackpot that I probably wouldn't play as much. But I'd still play, buying a ticket when I felt like it or

NewbieReply
Welcome USAF Girl!! You have some good jackpots to play this week MM up to 138 million and CA up to 43 million. I play birthday's also, but those are usually low numbers so sometimes I throw in a 40 or 50 for good measure. Also sometimes I'm one number off so I buy tickets with numbers one up/down from my usual numbers. But mostly I just play my usual numbers and a couple of QP's. Good luck! And THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY!!
