Yesterday the PA Millionaire raffle tickets started their sales, so I bought one. It was later in the afternoon, but was still among the first 5,000 sold.

That was $20

The last 4 numbers were 2 pair, so I played those 2 pair for 50 cents boxed day and evening for 7 days

That was $7

I also have to start a new cycle on the pick 3 tomorrow,

That will be $14

So this week I will spend $41 instead of $14.

Adding $27 to my projected year end loss still keeps it below $200

I have had worse loss years... but it isn't over yet... one win on p3 or p4 erases the loss.
