LottoMike Thanx RickG, yea i know, but i see sometimes there's three 20's or three 30's numbers, so if i see a pattern i might play a buck pick all 5 numbers as 20's or 30's. That'll get me $20 if i match three. But i doubt i'll do that lol

Maverick, I wouldn't recommend playing all teens or twenties, etc. ...the numbers don't come in that way often enough to warrant the bet.ezStreet, The number of quick pick jackpot winners compared to self-pick winners is roughly proportional to the amount of quick picks sold vs. self-picks sold.

try one digit in the teens,two in the twenties and two in the thirties spread the numbers out...

Wow Rick G that is unique indeed. I have Take Five here in NY (5/39). I thought of playing all teen numbers, or all twenties numbers, or all thirties numbers for like a few bucks per draw. I doubt I'd win the JP, but if a pattern develops that might win me a lower prize of approximately $20 or $500... but I'm still unsure.

I wonder what they percentage is of Jackpot winners who choose Quick Picks over those who choose their own numbers

maybe it's because TN is new to lottery LottoMike. I'm waiting for them to come out with a pick 4. I wish they had got the Mega Millions game instead of Powerball. I wish here in KY we had a option to play combo on pick 4 like in Illinois. All we have is the super straight(combo) for pick 3. Oh yeah, Badger that is 7 that Illinois hasn't had come out in the midday draw in 22 days

I bought three Q picks for mega mil at different places. One ticket had 2 numbers from Tuesdays game one ticket had Tues. mega ball. The last ticket I got had the same mega ball as last Friday and 1 number. Glad I played a few of my own selections. While I didn't win anything I was way closer with my picks then the Q picks.I have bought bonus match 5 q. picks with successive numbers like 15-16-17-18-29. I try and get separate tickets thought.
