Kentucky Lottery raffle tickets now on saleNews Story
Sales of Kentucky Lottery Corp.'s new game called Million Dollar Draw, for which only 500,000 tickers will be sold at $10 each, went on sale yesterday. Once all of the tickets, which each contain a unique six-digit number, have been sold, the Kentucky Lottery will publicly announce the date and time of the drawing, according to lottery officials. Players may not choose their own numbers. A random number generator will select 734 winning numbers. Computerized drawings have been the su

Sign the petition - eliminate computerized drawings!Reply
I am a Delawarean who will not buy any online games in this state due to the computerized drawings, obvious rigging, and blantant apathy of the lottery director. I also have my doubts about the scratch-offs too. I wonder if the other poster is the lottery director himself...

U.S. legislation likely just a speed bump for online gamblingReply
I agree with eliminating all computerized drawings. Including any online games that are computerized. The only thing that should be bet online is poker and other card games that are played against ONLY OTHER HUMAN PLAYERS! NOTE: There are several programs you can buy for very little money that you can play Poker at home vs. the computer or online human opponents. It's a lot cheaper than all the money that players lose online on all these blatantly fixed uncontrolled unregulated online casino

getting feedback about computerized drawingsReply
I play fantasy 5 in CA. and I won a few 3/5 and a few months ago I won a 4/5 for $512. I would rather have a ball drawing but I still have won with the computerized drawings. I guess it's all luck I don't know. I just hope it's a honest game and that we aren't getting ripped off. I wrote to Arnold about this but haven't heard anything back yet. They have been doing this for about 8 years now so I doubt they will switch back.

MUSL and how they conduct their drawsReply
I totally agree about the trust issue when it comes to computerized drawings. I probably shouldn't be commenting since I'm currently not participating in the multi-state games, but my opinion is that eventually every game will be computerized, despite the protests of the players. In fact, I think everything we do in life will be controlled by a computer. After going through the self checkout at Walmart I think I belong in a world where life if simpler! The guy after me must have thought I was on

Does hindsight have you frustrated?Reply
If your hindsight was as good as your foresight then you would have played the winning numbers. It's always easy to think you played the wrong numbers after loosing. The problem with the WA state lottery is that it's computer drawn and the prizes suck. Both Quinto and Lotto rarely get big. The recent $11 million run is a rare exception. Quinto rarely breaks $2 million any more. Even the Oregon Megabucks has been in a slump and it also suffers from computerized drawings.

Kansas Lottery adds 'Hot Lotto' gameReply
Hot Lotto drawing results are generated by a computer using a Random Number Generator (RNG). That should bring out the trolls. I also curious how many people would hate computerized drawings, until they won. Too me it does not matter how I get there, a jackpot win is a jackpot win. I just happen not to play any RNG games as of now. I did try the day draws a few times, and actually hit boxed. No complaints so as long as I am winning.

Kansas Lottery adds 'Hot Lotto' gameReply
I am not a fan of computerized drawings either, but I would rather play a computerized HL than the new Lose for Life, even where there is a cash option. IMO the real reason KS finally joined is that neighboring Oklahoma just started a lottery. OK and Nebraska, neither with a classic lotto game, are starting to feel pressure toward joining HL. The startup of the North Carolina lottery likewise may push South Carolina and/or Tennessee into HL, now that Lotto South is gone.

What would the experts do with a lottery jackpot?Reply
God isn't going to have a damn thing to do with it, thus he doesn't get a percentage; why should any human be obligated to provide funds to a superior being? If he wants a share, let him go out and sprinkle his magic sperm dust on his own ticket. If his magic sperm dust can get a virgin pregnant, and he can write a best selling comic book about it, then he can create his own lottery winnings. He can also take care of all the needy that he created during his famous temper tantrums. No wonder n
