      <description><![CDATA[Just realized that the article says she bought the last 2 tickets.  So maybe she would have purchased more!  $40 is a lot for 2 tickets.<br /><br />This also brings something else to mind.   The last two tickets.    People sometimes say that the first and last on a roll are more likely to be winners.    True]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[NY, which is known (at least to LP members) to have quite a few annuity-only tickets, does not do a good job  warning  players which games are non-cash. AFAIK the internet is the only true way you can find out if a NY scratch game is annuity-only. TV and radio commercials leave out the  fine print .]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Perhaps your intentions are 100% pure but<br /><br />(1)  What makes you think this woman is a member here or views this site?<br /><br />(2)  Why would you join immediately after she wins $1,000,000?<br /><br />As I said, I apologize if this sounds argumentative, but I'm the person who sent Todd the news clip on Feb 2 and asked if he would review it and post it if he found it interesting.  So you only noticed this press release after it was posted on a Lottery web site a week later.<br /><br />Again, hope I don't offend any...

      <description><![CDATA[That's how it's advertised.  Usually if a game has a choice of annuity or lump sum there is an asterisk and a footnote indicating it's not the actual amount.  So I believe you are correct.  To me this is one of the hardest things about playing the lottery -  $20 is a heck of a lot to spend on one measly scratch ticket that will probably end up in the trash.  On the other hand, I'm sure this lady and her family is happy she  blew  that $20 bill]]></description>
