Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Hi Speeddmon, great $10 Madness for $500! I really like how it's a simple number match, making you think as it does that it will be a smallish win...but lo and behold there's big zeros! I've been buying this game pretty regularly, with little luck. My wifey though gets a couple and wouldcha know it she hits the Money Bag!...+$500 for her...!

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Hey Skeptic, I've been meaning to chime in on the below, so thanks for your patience. Single 500X are rare on this game, as there's a total of 4,694 of them, or about 1 in 9,126 tickets. Of these, 75.3% are $1,000, 15.1% are $5,000, 7.5% are $10,000, and 2.1% are $50,000. I'll try to work up odds for all tickets with the 500X (they combine with other multipliers more frequently). EVERYONE!!...wish a big (belated ) Birthday to SKEPTIC!!...celebrating another year young yesterday October 31st!

Why Powerball and Megamillion ticket price remains $2 if starting price is NOT $40millionReply
Not sure if you caught this video when it came out in March, but it should give you some insight into this issue. The video headline is about game changes, but a big portion was devoted to discussion of the starting jackpot amount. The interview is with the head of the Mega Millions group, so there is no more definitive information about it than this. https://www.lotterypost.com/news/340204

Pennsylvania: 9/1 - 9/30/2022Reply
You're very welcome, Dee. I was thinking about the profitability matrix in terms of one game over another. I don't know the answer to this, but I'm wondering on those days when you see big payouts on the Pick 3, 4 or 5, is there a proportionate reduction in payouts on Fast Plays for the next couple days to balance it out? If they're striving to maintain a certain level of profitability, you'd think the things they can't control like the ball drawings (at least I hope they're not controlling them

It's helped me win a few times big wins that's why I can't. I'm used to doing that cuz loon has trained me to look at both draws they are connected. It's proving I'm right but unlucky going to the other game. It makes me mental

Scratching lottery ticketsReply
So if you get a big win you going to just cash it in or you going to scratch off how you got the win? I used to only because i was in a time crunch and playing to just a get a win and stop. I learned from Cape to make sure you double check before tossing em, there is a possibility of tossing a winner esp scanning multiple and at a rushed pace . Now I scratch the game more to waste time and buying a lot less these days. If you can hit a symbol early, you get a feeling is there more to win from th

Makes me wonder how they will skew the game even more once this comes into play. Last time we got something big it was the 1-off play fiasco, then Sum-it-up and now they are finding a way to screw us even more. I may need to retire from P3 again! Thanks for sharing RedDog!

Hi Speed, hope you nail a big win next time you try some 500X! As for total tickets the FL Lotto lists that info in the each game's rule publication in the FL Register. For the 500X there's 42,838,800 tickets, or 1,427,960 books. Interestingly enough if a game is reordered the rule isn't updated to list the revised count, but by comparing increases in prize counts it can be determined. For the 500X I'm seeing book #s approaching 800K so it's selling pretty quickly (but new games often do...an
