Woman arrested for trying to fake jackpot winning lottery ticketNews Story
Note to anyone thinking of gaming the state lottery: it never works. An Elgin, Illinois, woman tried to cash in on the record $656 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot with a ticket she bought online eight minutes after the winning numbers were drawn, officials said today. Leandria Williams, 28, was initially charged with wire fraud last week for falsifying documents. She has now been charged with attempted theft and forgery, according to the Cook County sheriff's office. An investigat

Quick Picks Just Plain Suck SometimesReply
I counted 24 instances of 7 and 19 of 8. Did I miss any? With 9 coins all having an equal probability of being drawn you would expect that any given coin would be drawn 1 out of every 9 times. Out of 200 total draws that would be 22.22 times (which obviously can't happen). 24 and 19 are both fairly close to what we would expect. I get 28 instances of 5, which is substantialy higher than the average, but you didn't mention that, so I'm not sure exactly what you're seeing (or looking for) that ma

You will get better with your index/rb but it will take time. If we could learn a system over night, we would all be MUCH better at this. Continue to do them and spend time looking at where the hits are coming from,, how often each week they hit, how long they are good for. Record them in your notebook. Most important, they are just another tool. Not the be all end all. Use another method or 2 to help confirm your workout selections. Also use this thread..You have outstanding po

Which odds are better?Reply
Ronnie316, As dr65 said, people spent more than 5X $500 on the last record setting MM and got zilch. Do you really think any lottery would provide a game as vulnerable as you're suggesting so that anyone with a large enough bankroll could turn it into a personal ATM? Before a game is made available to the public it's tsted ovr and over, and when a flaw does comde up, like in Massachusetts, the game disappears. As far as the MM number or hitting 3 + 0, if you're willing to spend $500 on

what is your thoughts on randomness is there structure even in chaos?Reply
Hi I'm interested in your pre-draw fact here and its consequences on lottery future draws but our state emphasizes that there should be a pre-draw and here are the procedures: Note: Mega gem are the lottery machine The panel inspects each of the Mega Gems to be used in the draws for a draw day, including the interior of the blowing chamber and the blowing mechanisms. This is to make sure there is nothing hidden in the Mega Gems that will invalidate the entire draw, such as hidd

Is Mirlande Wilson an Attention Seeking Fraud, or Have the Winning Ticket?Reply
I don't think it is her based on the comment from her attorney (unless she fired him). A Maryland Mega Millions winner stepped forward Monday to stake claim a third of a record $656 million jackpot, a lottery official told the Daily News. Details on the winning claim will be revealed by Maryland Lottery Director Stephen Martino at an 8 a.m. press conference Tuesday in Baltimore, officials said. In Maryland, the winner is given the choice of remaining anonymous. Lottery officials

$540 MILLION: Mega Millions buying frenzy sparks another jackpot increaseReply
Hello everyone, I'm a newbie :) just wanted to say, glad to be a part of the community, and best of luck to everyone! I also agree, that the cash option I think is way better, since one could form a Family Foundation, set yourself up as Trustee, and Ceo, everything would be tax free, including interest(except for personal salary). I have been crunching a few numbers, and what I have been able to decipre, is that the Mega Millions game is selling around $265,000,000 (million tickets)
