Ever hear the theme song to The Jeffersons TV show? That's my reason among many.

wrt jackpot games...i play because despite odds jackpots are won and therefore can be won if you have a ticket...and because they still use numbered balls and mechanical machines for most jackpot draws...and it really isn't that expensive staying active in a jackpot gamei also play pick 3 and 4 occasionally because i like the increased complexity and ticket variations offered filling out the play cardscurrently i p3 doubles

Just the thought of coming up with that number in your workouts...And nailing it down...Makes you feel great.

Yep, it's simple: You can't win if you don't play.

If i had played and never won then i would have stopped playing. Like Eddie every time i play i say today is my day to WIN i don't ever lay down my money on numbers and say i ain't going to win or i don't have a chance at winning .

Let's just say I don't play to support the state. They already grab every nickel they can from us residents and then waste as much of it as they can...then complain they need to raise our taxes again.I do get a certain experience of fun in trying to determine what digits will fall in the P3. As far as jackpot games go, it's entirely to win some money. I've given up trying to predetermine what will fall in those games, so I just pick my own numbers randomly. (I just don't like the RNGs that giv... [ More ]

I play for the thrill of hunting down a big jackpot and catching it.

I play for the game. The filling out of the play slip, watching the balls bounce (or in the case of the Criterion, get tossed), the feeling of the ticket in your hand. If I win it's great, and if not it was still a fun ride. If you're just playing to win money, you're probably not having much fun.

Why do you play the lottery? For fun? To win? Or to help the state services that the lotto supports?I play because I think it's fun to play. I don't play thinking I'm going to win, however, it would be nice to bring in a little money.
