THE LOTTERY BEST KEPT SECRET=Buying more than one ticket increases your chances of winning?Reply
You are confusing odds with chances.When you hold more than one ticket you increase your chances of winning.ONLY THE LOTTERY CAN INCREASE OR DECREASE YOUR ODDS OF WINNING BY CHANGING THE MATRIX OF THE GAME YOU PLAY.Mega millions odds 1 in 175 millions and POWERBALL odds 1 in 195 millions are always fixed against every combination purchased.But you can increase your chances by buying more tickets.That's my understanding.Some players try to change the matrix of the games on their own by wheeling a

Looking for a play like the 646, and 626 on the D4 side tonight. Just changing one digit. Keeping all the others. 2767 for me. Friday's 9/24 night game had the pic 3 combined 4662. Just looking at the way TLC is throwing the game with the digits.

Fla fantasy 5 playing footsy with the balls?
There have been 4 in a row 30s numbers in row 4 and 5.. happened last time about 10 months ago..(Just a question) I was wondering about the whole (Changing of the balls/pre draws/change machines) and other stuff.. Does the Florida F5 every once in a while do pre draws (ect)to throw off number pickers like us.. or just let a small game like this just be run by the nearest janitor in the room and all is draw after draw? Are there also random surprise inspections (Ball weight..ect) for this pick 5

Man claims $16M Florida Lotto prizeReply
Think, I agree with you. If you go back and read what I wrote, I did mention that at least the new game gives players a choice. I was only stating that I try to stick to a budget and prefer to take any extra money I choose to spend and bet it on either another game or an additional ticket instead of increasing the jackpot. Obviously the man who won $16 million is happy he spent one extra dollar for $10 million more. For me, considering the odds, I'd rather increase my chances. However, you do ha

Tennessee is finally getting that pick 6 lotto...Reply
I think this is really piss poor that TN starts a new lottery game and changes another yet no one at any of the stores I've been to that sales lottery tickets has any idea about how the games are going to be run. All they know is that they start Feb 24th. Then to top that off TN lottery website has no mention of any lottery games changing or any new games. You would think that atleast 7 days before the game starts they would put up some info on the website on how to play the games, prize info, a

Calif. state workers bet the same lottery numbers 10 years -- and winReply
I agree with you, Miss NYC and OldSchoolPa. The odds don't change if the game is the same. However, in FL where I play a 6/53 game twice a week, no 2 combinations have ever been repeated. Hammer1, like you I've played the same 4 combinations for many years. I often think of switching to quick picks, but I have a ridiculous fear of changing my numbers.

What is up with MM/PBReply
Powerball has been struggling since North Carolina joined. Mega has been struggling since it's inception as it's current game. Without a price increase or some other change I'd get used to the idea that large jackpots for either game are a thing of the past. Eventually Euromillions will hold all 10 of the top 10 record jackpot amounts unless they add Germany or some other large country without changing the odds.

To SirMetroReply
Last I talked with the PA lottery they said they have no plans of changing the game. They claim it is what the people want. I personally would love to know who these people are, as I did not get a vote. I requested that they drop the game to $1.00, and/or raise the prize to at least $5,000 a month for life. If they did that, no cash option would not bother me in the least. I would also play more, and they are losing money because of the $2.00 price. At least from me.

Texas Lottery eliminates Lotto bonus ballReply
Well I don't think there is much of a chance for any normal lottery game anymore in TX. Even if they revert back to the 6 of 54 game or whatever it is I bet there won't be an increase in sales. TX has Mega Millions and usually the in-state game suffers. Changing the game back to the game that they had to replace a couple years ago isn't going to do much good. Brad
