I have played number i have dreamed about. I didn't win anything, then I'm left wondering if i didn't play the right way are maybe i didn't play the right game. Are did i give up playing to soon. Then i look back and feel i just didn't know what to make of the dream. Maybe one day soon.

Even thought I'm a firm believer in dreams in which I have multiple dreams of winning big jackpot for some reason I haven't been to hit a single jackpot, now that's what I call bad luck

Correct me I'm wrong and feeling lazy here. Isn't this the highest amount paid for a 50 cent/$1.00 bet on pick 4? I know here it is $600 and $5K respectively. maybe someday I'll mosey on all the states to see what their pick 4 pays.

He played $50 on that number to win the $300,000!

The Iowa lottery pick 4 odds are 10,000: 1, but pays $3,000 for 50 and $6,000 for $1.

You can buy tickets for 50 , $1, $2, $3, $4, or $5.

Since a $5 ticket pays $30,000, he would have had to purchase 10 of them to win $300,000 at a cost of $50.

Those people don't get their stories in newspapers. If they did you wouldn't have nearly enough time to read them.

from 6/3 to 7/2 (excluding his winning draw on 6/27) for both midday and evening draws there were only 20 straight winners the whole month but on evening of 6/27 (#2112) there was a total of 100 straight winners sold.

Oh and by the way do not dismiss numbers in your dreams....it may not happen that same day same week or month but keep it in play.

It happened to me a couple of times and I won big.

Prizes and Odds

Play Odds $.50 $1 $2 $3 $4 $5

Straight 1 in 10,000 $3,000 $6,000 $12,000 $18,000 $24,000 $30,000

I guess you can play up to $5.00 bucks straight and win 30,000 so he played 10 tickets and won $300,000 grand

Some states offer higher payouts for more money, say like instead of 1 dollar you pay 2 dollar, and the prize doubles, and then so on and on, some tickets straight could cost you like 10 bucks, but the payout would be like 50G, thats it

What about those folks who have been dreaming of their special numbers for years, and not hitting it? Wrong dreams, wrong numbers -what

Have you heard of buying several tickets with the same combination

It's either true or a misprint. However if Gloria Mckenzie could win $370mil off a dollar,before taxes, what's $5K

A man who played numbers he saw in a dream won big last week in the Iowa Lottery.

Kelvin Wynn, 57, of Davenport, Iowa, won a total of $300,000 in last Tuesday evening's drawing of the Iowa Lottery's Pick 4 game. He won 10 prizes of $30,000 by matching all four of the numbers drawn in the exact order: 2-1-1-2; this is known as a straight play.

Wynn, who works for a landscaping company in the Quad-Cities area, bought his winning tickets Tuesday at QC Mart, 2843 E. 53rd St. in Davenport. He p... [ More ]
