MM jackpot $47M/$36.1M and PB jackpot $50M/$33.3Reply
PowerBall will change its matrix or its price before it ever disappeared and MM would have to consider if some states might ban together to create another $1 multi-state game if they ever abandon that market. PowerBall wouldn't be the first $2 ticket game to fail and be replaced with a game closer to its older version. It happened in Ohio in 2007 when Lot'O Play was replaced by Classic Lotto a version of the 6/49 game it replaced a year earlier.

Mega Millions coming to North DakotaNews Story
The North Dakota Lottery Division is launching a new game in January. The Mega Millions multi-state lottery game will be added to the selection of games already being played in North Dakota. North Dakota Lottery Division Director Randy Miller says it's in the state's best interest to add the game to its current product mix. He's expects the state lottery division will see a $2 million increase in total sales by adding the Mega Millions to the lineup. It will be an exciting time for the

I love big jack-potsReply
Believe it or not, some LP members have posted they never play the jackpot games, they prefer playing to win $50 with odds of 1:220 in a pick3 game than playing to win $5M+ with odds of 1:15M in a state game or $50M+ with odds of 1:135M in one of the multi-state games. I prefer the jackpot games because it's a lot easier to earn $50 by working than it is to win it in a pick3 game while it's a lot easier to win $50M+ in a jackpot game than it is to earn it by working.

Tenn. lottery fans make fewer runs for the Kentucky borderNews Story
Gene Dotson is something of a video-game-stool philosopher of luck.As a regular lottery player, the retiree from Nashville has good reason to think about these things.''Is there such a thing called luck?'' Dotson asked Tuesday, a twinkle in his eye and a cigarette between two fingers as he played a video poker game at a lottery outlet just north of the Tennessee-Kentucky line, 36 miles from home. ''Is it who you are? ''Why do people keep doing it? Why do I keep doing it?''Whatever the cosmic an

Mega Millions Lottery Disappoints, Officials SayNews Story
The whole point of the Mega Millions lottery was huge jackpots, headline jackpots, crowds-mobbing-the-gas-stations jackpots.But more than a year after the multi-state Mega Millions lottery was created, the top prizes haven't been the record-breakers organizers had hoped -- leaving the 10 member states still waiting for a lottery windfall to cushion falling tax revenues.You might call it a case of bad luck. The lottery grew out of the seven-state Big Game, which set an American record for a singl

Message to Ohio Lottery playersReply
It didn't make any sense for a state to join only one multi states lottery game. For example, the Ohio can either have Big Game MM, or Powerball.The system is there, the only different which sever is going to accept the order. You can choose your cable/utility company, but why not the multi state lottery game?Also, who decide which multi game to join, the players or government? But who actually play the game, the players or government?The oligopoly of a particular multi states lottery games redu

My numbersReply
Yes, NJ has a Lotzee. Only a handful of lotteries sell this type of game (in fact, MUSL ran a multi-state game similar to Lotzee.) There are major differences between Super-6 and Lotzee-type games; the most important is that Lotzee is a niche type game, while Super-6 is a jackpot driven game. With a jackpot-driven game, you need a larger player base. Super-6 does not appeal to players who want to pick ALL their numbers. PA players will welcome being able to pick all their numbers (if the

MUSL "Hot Lotto" $1.7 million ($930,000 cash) Saturday 5/4Reply
The Super-6 game was created in 1998, long before PA was given permission to join a multi-state game. The jackpot odds are VERY long for a single-state game- 1 in nearly 40 million. This game was designed to build large jackpots, and, PA figured it would be hit less often if players could not choose all the numbers. This is the _only_ US jackpot game with automatic quick-picks. When PA joins Powerball this summer, it will no longer need Super-6 to build big jackpots. The right thing for PA would

Dear Ruthy: I live in Westchester County, NY. I haven't bought tickets in PA in nearly 2-1/2 years. You've probably noticed the Super-6 game lets you choose only ONE-THIRD of the numbers on your ticket. This game needs to be changed, or replaced with a multi-state game. The PA Cash-5 is a good game, however. NJ is a much better lotto state, not just because of Big Game , but because Pick-6 Lotto was greatly improved last year with the addition of a 3# prize, and the elimination of their 5-dig
