Lets get a better understanding of what actually wins! Mega MillionsReply
All my winnings have been with my own numbers because I only play numbers I pick. I remember reading an article about commonality of MegaMillions winning numbers which might be of interest to you but I've forgotten where I saw it. Ohio has never had a promotion to give away free MM tickets, the jackpot has always been promotion enough but they do offer the option of playing the kicker game which can only be played if you buy a MM ticket with 1-5 lines.

Mega Millions & National Lottery
Todd posted an article recently about Powerball and Mega Millions expanding plus a national lottery being launched later this year. Anybody know if Florida is getting Mega and what's the status on the national thing?

A Model for What to do with the Jackpot You just WonReply
Great article. However, I would still remain anonymous for the sake of peace of mind and so that you won't be targeted by the media. Don't forget that this guy lives in a small town in IDAHO!!! What crime or harrassment could possibly happen to him in Idaho? I read about one of the Powerball winners from Nebraska and he still lives in Nebraska. But a lottery winner in Idaho or Nebraska wouldn't have the same problems as someone who won it in New York City. Believe me, if someone won that k

New NY Lotto 59 in March-will it still be a ripoff?Reply
I took a closer look at the expected prize amounts for Blotto Extra (I saw them in the same article before but was in a hurry.) The 5/6 and 4/6 (neither with bonus ball) will pay exactly double with Blotto Extra than without, meaning the NY Blotto/Blotto Extra payout will continue to be 40%. And now I read in today's (2/1) Journal News (White Plains, NY) that there is a proposal to reduce scratch prizes from 65% to 40% and Quick Draw from 60% to 40%. Do these lawmakers ever buy tickets?

Will Florida Join PowerballReply
I've lived in FL for over 12 years and I don't ever remember reading that we joined PB. I'd like to read the article to which you are referring. Jeb Bush announced he would never approved joining a multi-state game since it would hurt state revenues. Okay: Here's something from the New York Times (the rest of the article is only avail for a fee) National News Briefs; Florida Cancels Contract To Be Part of Powerball *Please Note: Archive articles do not include photos, charts or

Personal NumbersReply
I agree with your theory, Guesser. I've studied the numbers drawn in FL over the past 10 years and there have been few draws where the 6 numbers are all under 30. However, what if one of these 2 winners had been playing for 10 years and then read an article explaining this fact, that is, he should stop and pick some other numbers or get a quick pick instead. He'd be very upset now, wouldn't he? This was my point. I realize that the odds were not in their favor picking such low numbers. Howev

Arriving at the lottery headquartersReply
Do a net-search of all combinations of your name, that is where the press will start. How much do your neighbors know about you? If your winnings are big enough, that is the second search. Next would be to find a family member with a motor-mouth.I remember a guy in PA won the largest amount on their Match Six earlier, the article said there was a line over a mile long to his front door. Which is why I plan on leaving the state the same day I claim the prize. Assuing the prize is BIG, I'd be on a
