My fascination -The first digitReply
Math is not a matter of opinion. You have made a mathematical claim that guessing the first ball or number correctly is more important than guessing the other balls or numbers correctly.

Still terrible overall in my opinion, but not as terrible as I had suggested originally. rib

This changes the odds from 1 : 2,704,155.00 individually to 1 : 1,352,077.00 overall to win the top prize of $250,000. Likewise, all the other prize amount odds are different as shown below. Here's a break down of the
