Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
Totally agree Chris$ with not letting a win get the best of you so you forget to SHUT YOUR MOUTH! The best advice is lay low if you win something big - don't go letting the locals know anything. Instant 'friends' will be a PITA and it gets under your skin quick. Don't know what's wrong with people, it's not like you need any local lottery buddies, they talk behind a person's back anyway. I've seen it happen....nice when the person is there and buzzing the second they step out the

I think he must've crashed and burned ...he's gone now. I honestly didn't know what to say other than wooo hooo.....after I read it 4 times. That was....interesting. I often stand in front of the machine and think about the top prizes....on a $1 ticket, would the top prize of $5,000 be good enough...yes but how many of them are there and how many $1's and free's are in between? LOADS. On the $2 tickets, would $25,000 be enough? Same problem though. I don't know if the trick is to

Poaching for winning ticketsReply
lol! Work and scratching tickets should not mix. In fact, I've heard more than a few counter clerks complain or remark that the *boss* does not want them scratching tickets while on shift. Some do not care, some do it out of sight of the cameras, some just do it regardless of the rules out in plain sight. A lady at my local store who works behind the courtesy desk balancing books, doing register, running the lottery numbers, activating gift cards..etc, etc, etc. Obviously she is very, v

Scratch Off Strategy
I'm new here so thanks for all the input. Anyway, I thought I'd share a scratcher ticket theory thats worked well for me here in PA. Go to the winners circle link on your state lottery website. Click on Instant Game Winners. Therein you will see an actual list of the winners, their home town, and sometimes the name of the store that sold the winning tickets. After going over the list you may determine a distribution pattern for certain games in certain areas. For exampl

How lucky have you been with scratch offs?Reply
catman, thanks for posting.. In PA they bring out new ones every month at a rate of about 4 per month. The ticket prices range from $1.00 to $20.00 Just this week they brought out 4 more. A person can hardly keep up with what's new and what's old and spent. So much confusion. They have a way of making each new ticket more attractive than the last. They must have a special VISUAL department there at PA Lottery Headquarters that sits and tests what color combos will sell more tic

How To Determine Winning Scratch-Off Lotto Tickets – TexasReply
Hey all - first of all, let me diffuse something in my posts - I am not crazy, LOL! I have spent decades as a bookie (early days) and from MLB and NFL, I have a good way with numbers, I see things and sometimes, it can't be explained easily (or at ALL!). I am an avid horse player, less now that Lone Star takes 20% off the top (GREED) so, I will sometimes go to spend a day playing Belmont, Hollywood Park and the simulcast building is a place to be left alone - no one bugs you. Most people make th

Gold Rush TriplerReply
Hey B$Rizzle..in the stores where the winners are hanging up, can you do me a favor next time if you remember? Could you take a look at the ticket numbers...are they randomly placed or are most of them at the front and end of the pack. A store I go to has a lot of tickets hanging in the window, he just recently started posting the winning tickets of $100 and up. I noticed an awful lot of winners from 1 - 10 on the $10's and $20's and winners from 024 to 029 on the $20's. Store
