"Whatever the drawing is for that night," said Hernandez, "That's the ticket I buy. One dollar. No more. No Less."
That was The strategy that Alex Hernandez from Staten Island New York used to win $1 million on sweet million on November 30th, 2009.
Spending $5 to get 3 free tickets is a great deal. I am not a big fan of buying 5 lines on one ticket for sweet million due to the fact that got many repeats when I tried it. There was a time I got the number 2 four times on a road on a $5 sweet million ticket, the first digit of every line. Are you kidding me? | | |

hey all i always considered myself the number 1 player in the sweet million in all of ny.I have played 4 grand on the last two drawing and todays drawing i put up 5,000 on it so with my extra tickets i have 8,000 sets of numbers.One interesting thing is the amount i play is huge and i only has 5 numbers once in all the time i played.I get 4 numbers alot but how is there 30 to 40 people with 5 numbers and i cant get one despite the amount i play i guess something has to be wrong with this picture.I had asked the lottery for the top 40 retailers and i went and spent 1,000 in the first 6 then other random places i could drive to and i still couldnt get 5 numbers in th eplaces where the most tickets is sold.This game seems like you have a good chance but in all reality its very difficult to even get the second prize.Im not bragging just amazed how i cant get close to save my life.Well to all have fun and good luck in todays drawing jada: Incredible that you spend that much. Hope you get it. I'd like to hear a little about how you pick your numbers. I hope it's not $5,000 worth of quick picks. I too....go to some of the largest (as well as the riny dink) lottery retailers to buy quick picks. I've talked about this many times. But primarily, I like to pick my own numbers. Someone won the Jackpot with this promotion last year in what I understand is the largest retailer in NY located in Lawrence, NY (right at the Queens border). I don't buy there anymore, cause lightening rarely strikes twice in the same place. | | |

I play at this store all the time playing quick draw....but not Sweet Millions for the reason I stated. So you understand the huge volume this store does. People blow crazy amounts of money in this place. They must have more cash than a bank in that place. Don't know where you live in NY (I Live about 3 miles from this store). But...why not go in to stores in Queens (for example)? I go in to some of the scummiest stores in the worst sections of Queens (in addition to Hempstead) Liquor stores with bullet proof windows etc.... I theorize that the Lottery Assoc likes to have winners in these primarily minority/depressed areas so they can encourage and continue to suck money out these folks.....a major revenue source. Overall, I like your idea of jumping around the NY area. But...again..these are all quick picks? | | |

Ya know..if I had your budget, I'd hit several "well picked" supermarkets all around Suffolk and buy $25 worth in each store. Same for various stores in the town of Wantagh....the location of another top NY retailer. Many winners have come from these areas...including a Sweet Millions winner | | |
