Michigan man drove around with $2 million winning lottery ticket for 4 months without realizing itReply
This story sounds very familiar to me... That's because a few years ago a guy from Long Island NY got stuck in a Memorial Day traffic jam on I-95 in Connecticut. So he pulled into a rest stop to get gas. While he was at the gas pump he saw a sign for The Connecticut Millionaire Raffle drawing set to be drawn on July 4th. Tickets cost twenty bucks and the odds were 125,000 to 1 so he bought a ticket and stashed it in his wallet. Then the July 4th drawing came and went, but nobody came forward

Virginia man who won $1,000 a week lottery prize in Cash4Life says it's just "good"Reply
Lucky for Life is now MUSL drawn on RNG in Iowa. I believe they changed from Connecticut RNGs to Iowa RNGs around September this year. There really wasn't a big announcement.

Connecticut Lottery launches its first $50 scratch-off ticketReply
$50 for a $4 mil is a complete joke. Next door Massachusetts has $50 for a $20 mil winner and quite a few of $4mil winners for $10. Not to mention second prize winners are even worse. Connecticut is a joke and I hope it fails. People should just head over to Massachusetts for one of the best odds and prize structures in the country.

Not really a block busting story in the lottery world but it is a worth mention that Connecticut has a very generous Cash 5 game payout with that 4 out of 5 (300.00) for a 35 number matrix. Best in the land I believe.

Perhaps the shock of winning caused him to be nonchalant...or the dreaded picture plastered all over the place. Glad the last sentence said still a mechanical ball drawing. What about Lucky for Life out of Connecticut? Is it an RNG game now?

Connecticut Lottery launches its first $50 scratch-off ticketReply
Not necessarily. It depends on the odds of winning the prize. Having very good odds (relatively speaking) of a $50 ticket winning a $4 million prize can be a very good lottery buy. Massachusetts: $50 ticket has a $25 million top prize, odds of 1 in 10,080,000 Connecticut: $50 ticket has a $4 million top prize, odds of 1 in 1,333,333 Now, you tell me which one is the better buy. There is no right answer, but I'm interested in hearing reasoned opinions.
