Hi RJOH:I know of what I speak, but the quote you used didn't have anything much to do with anything true or false. Nor inspiring conversation. The quote comes under the heading of that piece of human intercourse known as 'being a smartass'.I think you might be familiar with that one.Jack

Mostly, Psykomo, I just have a more-or-less conventional way of putting sentences together. My use of the language is a bit regional and colloquial, but I do my best to make it communicate thoughts and ideas.How about you?Jack

JackYou are of course right, they would just change the RULES that they go by, they would not dare be known to the CUSTOMER , but they do have to find out how he or she wins.

It all depends on how bold and secure they are and what resources they might have.Hi Lantern:Maybe. On the other hand, I'd guess they'd come nearer just watching, changing the deck it someone starts reading their marks. When you're the house you don't have to Shanghai the customers to bust a flush here and there.Jack

While I am in agreement with what most everyone has to say here, I still feel that anyone who has a negative attitude toward winning the lottery might as well save their money and avoid the ticket window altogether. Which is one of my strategies. If I am having a low emotional day, I avoid the ticket window...what's the point??? However, on a particularly HIGH day (which I have most often), if I've got some numbers worked out, I'll go play 'em. I usually hit. Not for the BIG BUCKS YET, but... [ More ]

Let's face it, the odds may be high, but someone does dventually ends up winning...hey it could be YOU or ME for that matter. When the time comes it just comes!! So let's go win some money...

...Why "Lottery Systems" Don't Work

MillionsWanted — Thu, 17 Mar 2005 02:20:53 GMT

It is very tempting to play the lottery. Just last week, there was a lottery in my area that had a grand prize of $110 Million! What you could do with all that money. Unfortunately, the odds of winning that prize were 1 in 54.9 Million. In other words, you'd be more likely to get hit by lightning or die in a plane crash than win. So, it's really a sucker bet. But, still, it's fun to play. More text here:...Why lottery systems don t workJust thought this text was of interest even though we perhap... [ More ]
