How many games are there that combine a $1 million minimum jackpot (with cash option) and 1:16 odds of winning at least $2?

Are Lotteries RiggedReply
I voted awhile ago but I think I said no to the question of rigging, a fix, in on the take. When I purchase a lottery ticket from my ticket retailer my worries are not on if the game is rigged. But if I have defeated the high numerical odds of winning that drawing night. I love beating the high odds in the lottery or in any other game of chance were the outcome most likely is that I will lose, My only concern is not how the games are run or presented but like any other form of government w

Buying more tickets = reduced oddsReply

Of course the ratio remains the same, you only have two combinations out of a thousand, but each now can be said to face off against 500 lines each. If you keep going doubling the amount of tickets you go from 1 in 1000 to 1000 in 1, full circle. The Hyper Geometric Distribution doesn't go away just because some don't care for how it is described in this case. ;-)Take 6/49 lotto, there is no question playing 24 numbers reduces the odds of having all six winning numbers among your 24 to roughly

Good point, paymenow...some of the best races to make money on is when the morning line odds favorite is listed at 4-1 or higher in a big field.

Changes to ’Hot Lotto’?Reply
Large states like Pennsylvania will never join. Low starting jackpot of one million compared to Powerballs ten million. Hot Lotto has a pitiful $10,000 second place prize compared to Powerballs $100,000.Even Pa Cash 5 is a better bet. The Hot Lotto web site lists the 5/39 odds of one to 607,744 for the $10,000 prize. Pa. Cash 5 5/39 odds is 575,757 for a jackpot starting at 100K. Its a no brainer.Cash Only you continuous post about Hot Lotto. Why do you have this obsession with this game? GET OV
