Here's the results for 2008, 2009, and combined:

These were the 2008 results:

146 Jackpots

120 QP 82.19%

91 PS 62.32%

(includes shared jackpots)

2008 was a leap year. So in 366 days jackpots were paid out 146 times or every 2.506 days

82.19% of the jackpot winners were QP

62.32% were player's selections, or PS

2009

365 drawings, 157 jackpots, a hit every 2.32 days.

To date:

157 Jackpots

132 QP 84.07%

87 PS 55.41%

Total jackpot money paid out to date: $33,295,000

Two years combined

731 drawings

303 Jackpots

252 QP 83.16%

178 PS 58.74%

Anyone who insists that quick picks don't hit as often as player's picks needs to pick a game and track it.

I think two years worth of results is pretty conclusive.

Anyone who wants the results daily can go to the Illinois Lotterywebsite and subscribe to an e-mail for them and have them sent, or justget them on the website every night.

Buono Fortuna.
