The story says he SPLIT a pot worth approx $408K. That means he took home a little over $200K before taxes...

I too do not waste my money on Picks 3 and Pick 4. Real lotto money begins if you play five numbers such as Fantasy 5

The smartest wager in any lottery is to instead of waste your time playing pick 3 or pick 4 with 50% payback is to WAIT and to spend all your money on

pick 5 rollovers where the jackpots are in the 500k range. Giving you almost a true EV of 1 to 1 ( not counting taxes) . It is all I do here in Illinois. Is only play the lucky day lotto when it is over 500k. I do not need to play 50% payback games every day. I have hit 4 out of 5 a ton of times. I might not never hit 5 out of 5 but at least I
