I really did miss that part. Still, I don't want to pay 2 bucks for a ticket. That is why I don't play scratch offs. They can cost as high as $10 per ticket. No way am I playing that! I figure the less I spend on the small stuff the more I have to spend on the real jackpots like mega millions and powerball. Think about it: If you only got lucky one time in your life, would you want it to be for thousands of dollars or Millions? And all it takes is one time for me to get it right. The only... [ More ]

Now @ last we have a progressive lottery away from Powerball. If only KY would change Cashball to progressive too like other states have! Good luck to all.

That's right, I think it's pretty clear from the article that the game has pretty good odds for a prize of that size:

A player who matches all six numbers on a single line wins the jackpot, which starts at $100,000 and increases each drawing it is not won. The odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 3,262,623.

Whoa! You really butchered what the article said. You only have to get 6 numbers on the same row to win the jackpot.

3 Line Lotto .......just another name for the DE Multiwin Lotto game. PA and Md also have this same game. The latest scheme by state lotteries to bleed us of our money. The 2nd and 3rd lines never seem to match any numbers with the first line more than 1 number. I like to pick my own numbers in lotto, but now I have to pay $2 per play instead of a $1 a play, so I can't use my old system of 8 numbers wheeled in 12 lines to guarantee a 5 of 6 if only 5 numbers are guessed right since the cos...

At $2 a ticket and needing to get 18 numbers right, I will not be playing this game. The odds are greater than hitting the powerball and I haven't done so well in that game.
