I am not a winnerReply
I got zero...zilch...zippo...nada...bupkus...doughnuts...marbles...air biscuits! I got Squat! And to add insult to injury all day long I stood at the counter of the shop I work in and sold ticket after ticket to, clueless. glassy eyed, millionaire wannabes...most of whom have never played before and had to ask me how to play! The only thing that's going to make this whole thing worse is if someone does win, for the next several days we'll be inunadated with stories of first time players

One state (SC) will keep your name secret if you request it, but if someone files a Freedom of Information Act request, you may have to file a plea with the judge to deny it. Photos and press conferences are always up to you. Most of the time, i

Is the Lottery (PB/MM) corrupt?Reply
I don trust any lottery games in any part of this world. I started tracking lottery games in 1978 before computers came available to the average consumer. When computer did come available, I purchased a computer and began entering lottery data. In Nov 1997 my home was broken into and my computer and printer, scanner, where stolen. The theives knew what they were looking for, and did not bother my tvs, stereo equiptment, camcorder, check books, or other small items that theives can easily ta

Hoosier Lottery Does It AgainReply
In order to fully appreciate LosingJeff's story, it's important to remember that Indiana has no mandated liability limits for any of their online games. To my knowledge, every other state lottery has them.Instead, the Hoosier Lottery prefers to actively track player selections as they're being sold, so they can cut off a number any time their sales for that number approach $600.00 on any given day. This fixes the upper limit of their payouts for the Pick-3 at no more than $300k. They call this
