NY Dream Team 2023Reply
if NYL keeps playing crappy and repeated numbers over and over that will eventually make people stop playing for a while or even good nobody like to lose over and over and not make any profit and once lottery sales go down that will hit NYL big. I learned that from scratch offs no profit at all no matter how new and fancy type of scratch off there are thats why I stop playing them just play a few numbers until it hits more money on a few numbers where you have a chance to win big.

Texas Legislature proposes bill to block online lottery courier servicesReply
Yeah, I was trying to figure out their logic too. Someone should tell Bob Hall there is no face-to-face transaction when players buy their tickets from a Kiosk machine either. Or will prohibiting Kiosk sales be his next bill?

$1.33 billion Powerball jackpot won by one ticket sold in OregonReply
I don't believe the lottery is rigged (at least the non RNG games). But, I will say that this is the 2nd time that Powerball has had to delay results. The 1st time this occurred, there was a huge drop off in the rate of sales, and they still haven't recovered that volume from one draw to the next. This is because of those that do believe that the lottery is rigged. Powerball really isn't doing themselves any favors by having another issue with a delayed result unveiling. This really makes me que

$1.7 billion in combined jackpots, as USA multi-state lottery games peak togetherReply
Once again, they've been fortunate enough that when interest rates changed sales magically increased exactly enough for the advertised annuity to remain the same. Assuming that current cash value is realistic the annuity would have been bumped to about 991.5 if the interest rate hadn't changed. If it rolls (about an 82% chance) it goes to $1.1 billion and $525 million cash.

$36 million Mega Millions ticket sold in Florida goes unclaimedReply
Partial end to this debacle is if lotteries would give their customers what most want---on-line sales. Of course this is null and void for folks like me who play in states traveling through!
