I bought a ticket, didn't even win a lousy $1 or 2 on it; if I'd won, I would of gladly told the hoser's around where to go

Wow really! $1 million is guaranteed to be won every draw. This is quite interesting. I don't mind spending additional dollar if it will give me higher chances of winning

Unless you are increasing the payback percentage it is all just smoke and mirrors.

The lottery makes you believe that your odds are going down to 6.6 but they dont tell you that the cash prize

odds are decreasing drastically. They want to churn your free plays over and over again. I sure do not play

the lottery for the free quick pick ticket. I would prefer just putting that prize pool to increase the money won

from hitting 4 or 5 of six. But that will never happen as the lottery kno... [ More ]

here in illinois our state lotto(6-52) sucks badly, they have added extra shot for an extra dollar but the top prize is like 40 k and no one ever hits it. also the jackpot climbs at a snails pace. if they could gurantee a million dollar winner for every draw in illinois lotto i wouldnt mind paying 3 bucks a pop.............

Mega Millions is going to change after the October 18, 2013 draw. They have not yet announced what the changes will be other than to say they will impact how fast the jackpot grows and they will change the second tier prizes.

As far as the Canada 6/49 goes, I don't believe they tax the prizes so $1 mil is ok.

Because of the heavy taxes by the feds and most states the prize here would have to be $2 mil.

I said I would quit PB when the price per line was raised to $2. I stayed quit for only a week then I was back with full force. The Canadians will not stop playing even if the price per line was hiked to $5.

3 bucks a pop for Lotto?

Nah, this (stuff) is gettin' outta hand.

I'd tell 'em to Take off, Hosers! (That's how Canadians talk)

Take off, Hosers

well i did like the lotto max from canada, and thats dang pricey, and the uk version of euro million thats 2 an entry. They both have extra prize features, but still i probably wouldnt play it every week. We have some change coming in a few months. on a minor game. i hope its worth the wait.

Look for this in your state lotto. Texas just added the option of paying an extra dollar for increased prizes.

Yeah but think on this, people pay $5.00 to cross the 3 bridges in the Bay Area on a daily basis, weekends included. The Golden Gate bridge is higher and $3.00 for a shot at millions?....people will go for it.

I was about to say the same thing. $3 is a tall task to play every drawing.-weshar75
