the plus ball is 16 or at least thats what i'll play. cant say i've done well at it lately. would be nice to get at least a 4 out of 5 on 50 bucks played ( 100 sets of 5 + the plus ball) i figure the odds are a little less scary and its sitting at 44 mil but no one can seem to win it and once it goes to the regular lotto on oct 5 it will be years of crummy 2-7 million prizes (yeah 2-7 mil is great but not when the odds are 7 mill) | | |

thats true but the whole reason for it was the low jackpots. at least this current jackpot will end quickly after the 5th when it becomes a 6/49 game again. at least then i can start loosing money on the megmillions assuming i dont have to drive to oregon for the powerball. but we dont have a state income tax here and oregons is at 9% with NO deductions so the prize has to be at least 260mil before i drift down there. this might be the time that megamillions finally has a big jackpot though. kind of ironic since the people of texas would get to be in it. | | |

Now if only WA would remake Quinto into an all-NUMBER pick-5, and dump "Lucky for Life". | | |

i actually like the card #'s on quinto - and the odds arent that bad for a lottery - gets up to 2.5 mil sometimes and thats all the cash at once. yeah lucky for life is bad. at least i know how penn. feels about their game since this current jackpot seems unwinnable by anyone. you almost wonder if the lottery is trying to make loosing tickets to boost sales. | | |

wow the stupid 6 odds really suck by comparison to the wa. lotto plus. odds in lotto plus are only 1:11 million with a 45mil prize so not bad by lottery standards ( 5 1-43 and 1 1-23) and now they are moving it back to lotto which is a standard 6-49 game with 1:7 million odds - not a big shift in my book. i didnt realize the odds suck that much for the stupid 6. also in wa state you get 2 picks per dollar on the lotto plus and can pick both who ever came up with the 2 auto quick picks was a moron. LOL it would be funny to see mm even roll for 4 months at 10 months i wouldnt worry what a house cost if i moved out of my palacial 360 sf apt. | | |

going to bet on 16 as the plus ball for my snowball chance in hell. so if you see the number 16 as the plus ball then you know there is a chance i won - i have 100 sets of white balls though and since im a hunt and peck typer i'll pass on posting all of them - won a 4 out of 5 though so not that bad last time i played. | | |

Funny how Lotto Plus was hit in its final drawing, before the better-odds game took over. | | |

well the 47 million prize was the big draw - it never had a big jackpot before this (kind of like megamillions) when it finally had a bid jackpot everyone wanted to play. - still i didnt win :(. back to the grindstone for me. i could have predicted i'd loose but thats too easy and depressing. | | |
