Probability of winning with multiple ticketsReply
Some would argue if you cared so deeply about the odds you wouldn't play at all.

Probability of winning with multiple ticketsReply
Tucker Black, Nope. As for PB and MM each additional ticket reducing the odds by millions is urban legend at best. There is only one set of winning numbers drawn and each set played is an attempt to match that set. Then there's always the possibility that someone with very deep pockets could play enough tickets using your theory to win the jackpot by wait! They read your post but you never mentioned the jackpot might be split by the number of winners! Way back when I first started casino work I

Never did this beforeReply
Once in a while, when I can, I play enough single draw of a state lotto to cut the odds down to under 1:7,000 for the jackpot. I have never won the jackpot. Only some free ticket plays and occasionally $10 (most of the time never any cash). So... I hope you win. But no such thing as a sure thing even with lowered odds. Good luck!

I'm not but there is a very strong chance that those who believe each additional ticket cuts the odds in half will go broke trying to prove it.

The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
I hope it's clear that I noted in as much as $20 a play is a lot, given the $1M prize and the 1:100,000 odds, I too would be in the game, at least for one shot. Its not everyday that we have 1:100,000 odds at a $1M prize.

Is there any method or system that can an predict the first digit that will fall in Pick 3Reply
The same is true for MM and PB, each set of played numbers is up against the same odds.

Wrong. 1 in 500 is the probability of winning. 1:499 is the odds of winning. The two are the same. With two tickets in pick 3, the odds do not change from one drawing to the next. It is always 1 in 500.
