I have a 5-43 in my state. I have only won two 3/5 so far. That is a whopping 20 bucks. I spent all my winnings already. In the red big time.

I was getting perturbed at why my usual strategy was not winning more so I looked at the lotto odds calculator in SLAG. Its astronomical. The odds are almost 1 in a million. I am considering quitting. My system works best for 1 in 575,000 or less.

Or maybe I am just being impatient? I dont know. I have not desired to play the game in over a month. Ev... [ More ]

If I knew my state lottery was rigging the drawings in order to only draw unpopular numbers, I would see that as a huge win, because all I would need to do was play unpopular numbers and I would win all the time. So if you truly believe that is what your lottery is doing, now you have your strategy that will make you win time after time.

Of the numbers drawn in North Carolina yesterday (463 midday, 948 evening, 264 double draw), which one(s) would you say are unpopular

Mega Millions consortium is now made of 10 lotteries. TX and NY left MM and joined MUSL consortium a few years ago (for some reasons, you can't be a member in both ....

I said that that all along for the past 5 years. They make sure to hold the popular sets of numbers in favor of those that are not common.

Hi positano, you are absolutely right! Thank you for the catch.

To clarify, Mega Millions is not a MUSL game, rather it is a multi-state game that is overseen by a separate Mega Millions consortium of its 12 member lotteries. MUSL works with the Mega Millions consortium to cross-sell Powerball and Mega Millions tickets in states that were not members of one group or the other, or did not sell either games to begin with.

Spot on Todd, I totally agree.

Well, that's just factually wrong. The lottery drawings in North Carolina are conducted with real ball drawings, and they are done in front of an auditor. You could probably go and view a drawing live if you asked.

To say they are rigged (like Eddie Tipton rigged drawings) you are saying that the lottery makes certain balls come out. And why would they risk going to jail just to make sure your particular numbers don't come out in Pick 3? That's ridiculous. The people supposedly rigging the lo... [ More ]

Kate, great video.

a small correction (minute 5:32). MUSL does NOT administers Mega Millions.

NOW the present day lottery scam is North Carolina (NCEL)...The North Carolina Extortion Lottery . There is nothing Education about it anymore. All P3/P4 and Cash5 drawings are rigged with pre-determined and taped drawings....usually in their favor. Wish they would get busted by the Feds so we can have a REAL lottery in this state!

Their slogan should be: 15YRS OF SCAMMING THE PUBLIC AND STILL GOING STRONG

Well I have heard of RNG or Rigged Numbers Game systems also being referred to as CGN (Corruptly Generated Numbers) or CNG (Corrupt Number Generation) systems.

Was it either of those two you were trying to remember

I had tickets for that drawing. I was so confused why no one had claimed it throughout the year. I didn't get a fair shot to win. Its crazy to think maybe I could have won it. I dont play my states Lucky for Life game anymore after they switched to the RNG.

This might be why no one (who works for the lottery) is allowed to play the game because they know too much. Heaven forbid that if you win the jackpot, only to have it void because a relative works for the commission...

I know this isn't the lottery but a few years ago an inside man rigged the pick six on breeders cup day. Seems like any flaw in the security and someone on the inside ready to exploit it.

The lottery officials who ignored Eddie when he tried to warn them about the flaw in the system, should have been fired. They could have shut things down and brought in a team of experts to fix the flaws. But they basically said fix it yourself . He also should never have involved someone who was not family. His brother did not turn on him, but his so-called friend did. Even thou this guy was guilty as sin. The lottery officials not only failed to listen to Eddie, but they ignored warnings from

Second time around still great to watch.

LP folks enlighten me...I see some lotteries instead of calling it RNG (Rigged Now Games) have a new Acronym but for the life of me can't think of what it is. Trying to fool lottery players not cool.

* Haven't been following the Tipton story, but wasn't he his accomplices supposed to pay restitution? Last l heard him he's posse were still hanging onto millions.

* Seems like the wheels of justice have ground to a halt when it comes to this band of brothers.

The scam that changed the lottery forever

By Kate Northrop

It was the hottest scandal and largest invasion of trust in lottery history, something that never should have happened, was predicted by Lottery Post or years, and absolutely could have been prevented.

Many lottery players think of a now-retired multi-state game when they hear the name Hot Lotto, but most lottery connoisseurs will remember the long-running drama associated with it, one that changed the lottery industry fore... [ More ]
