Justexploring, you know, I play that Mega Money game here and there. I seem to never match any numbers, let alone win anything! I like Fantasy 5. That's my favorite game, I think...unless I hit Lotto tonight! Then, Lotto will be my favorite

I wish I didn't even go out tonight to get my ticket. When I bought my Fantasy5 ticket, I decided to splurge on 4 Florida MegaMoney tickets (quick picks) and didn't even get one number. That's $5 down the drain that I could have spent on something useful. So tonight is one of those nights I wish I had fallen asleep on the sofa and missed a game.

yeah , like i said earlier, i hardly ever miss a game, but if the pot is huge and i dont win it, i usually hope it doesnt go off so i get another chance at it the following week.

Doesn't affect me, if I didn't play then oh well. Saved one or more dollars that would have probably been wasted.

we can play upto 26 weeks ahead , out here. we can name a draw number and enter just that game or every week from now until then.

i usually like to enter draws for 10 weeks in advance, for the syndicates i run.as its less chasing people around and less foot work. once let some other guy do the job and he didnt put the numbers on, cuz he couldnt get to the agent , that week. yeah he took the 10 weeks money , but was entering them weekly or bi-weekly. i guess im not strapped for time like

Every time I play, I pick a new list of combinations based on previous drawings so it take a while to come up with a list and make out new play slips. Some times I don't complete the task before the drawing so I don't get a chance to play. I have missed playing many times and only once did I miss winning a nice prize, so not playing once in a while is no big deal to me since most times I just avoid losing more money.

Last Sunday I sat down to check my numbers for the state lotto game from Saturday night's drawing but couldn't find my ticket. Then it dawned on me - I'd forgotten to play. The jackpot had been over $9 million, so I had intended to do so. Though I don't often play the state lotto, if both of the following criteria are met, I usually do. (1) The jackpot is over $5 million. (2) The MM jackpot is low enough that (due to its terrible odds) I'm not attracted to it instead, since I need to keep within... [ More ]

#1. That's exactly what I mean. Let me use a different example. Let's say you are at work and the boss calls a meeting after work. The meeting is scheduled to be over at 9:00pm. By the time you get out of the meeting it's 10:45pm. By then, you missed the draw(s). How do you feel?

#2. I know there are multiple games, but, it would be hard (on my budget) to play them all, and I don't really want to play them all.

#3. That is another example of what I'm talking about! Falling asleep on the c... [ More ]

lol..haha. I know what your asking. But with me its different. Wa Lotto, MM, Hit5 etc..etc..I don't play every draw for all these games. I can't afford it. So when I set an amount I will start buying tickets (ei: MM 50M, Hit5 300,000, Wa Lotto 3M) I don't wait to buy because I think a bigger jackpot is better.. I simply buy when they are these sizes to help me cut back on spending $$ I don't have. There were a few times awhile back when MM got HUGE HUGE, over 300M...remember? I would race out wh...

Your first paragraph is asking crucial questions dealing with Quantum Physics, and theology.

BTW...yes...if you are outside admiring the moonlight, while there is a show about polar bears on T.V., inside, you did miss the show. Just ask paw....lol

Do you mean miss the lottery as in miss playing one day or miss the lottery as in you missed winning the lottery that you played

Well, if you were playing golf and didn't think about the lottery, then you didn't miss it, right? I mean, you didn't play it, but that's not the same as missing it. Let's say you were at home tonight listening to some great music or sitting outside talking to neighbors and looking at the moon. During that time there was a show on the Discovery Channel about the mating habits of polar bears. Did you miss that show?

Let's say I wasn't aware of advanced play. Also, I missed a game because Miguel asked me to play golf, and I got side tracked. How would you feel?

I miss games all the time. Just meant to be...lol

I don't understand the question. If you are a regular player, you either play or you don't. How can you miss a game? If you need to go out of town, then just buy a few advanced plays. When I worked until 9:00 in a store, I'd buy my tickets on the way to work. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question. Do you mean How do you feel when you don't win a game
