Hey Guys: I was at the Dodge Store on Saturday 2/7, I thought about buying a $20 ticket but changed my mind. However, while I was there a lady bought a ticket worth the million dollars. I just could not believe it. Was very happy for her. So, this one ticket was sold in Jackson, TN. I am not sure what part of TN the other one was sold.

Payed out over 25 years, it's on back of ticket, if you pay taxes on it you would get 40,000 if they hold out taxes you would get 30,000 a year for 25 years.

Was at my favorite store late yesterday eve. and a guy in front of me bought the new 20 ticket and won 500, just goes to show you it's all luck, I bought 5 giant jumdo in arow and won15 back, then bought 1 big money maker and won 100 so I was pretty happy.

I have bought a book of tickets before... $10 scratch offs for the same price of $300. I only got $130 back. I wasn't upset because that's the chance I took. We have to remember that the payouts on scratch offs are not 100%... SO you aren't going to break even. If everyone broke even there WOULD NOT be a lottery. This goes back to what I said earlier... There has to be losers. Sorry guys... That's just how the lottery works.

Tn is the slowest to post anything on their site! still waiting on # of winners and pre-draw results for cash 3/4 ....see Texas site....Tn site looks like a 5th grader did it compared to the Texas site! There is NO reason the winning cash 3 winning # should not be posted almost immediately after the draw ,not when the TV choses to show the drawing ...so I believe that about the scratchers.....this post should be copied to cash 3 ......geez...C2

So far my dad and I have played this game with a little success. I purchased five tickets last night and won 2 out of 5 for $50 (So, a loss of $50).

My dad has played a total of 10 with 6 winners. No winner has been more than $30, so he's still down a bit - but not bad.

Seem to be pulling some winners on our end but not hitting anything for much over $30.

My favorite store I use for all my tickets sold a woman 4 packs of the new 20.00 ticket, she spent 1200 and won 525 back NOT GOOD. A guy went into a pilot station and bought 1 ticket and won 1000 so it's just pure luck

Evidence? never said anything about wrong doing within the evil purple and yellow empire.why email the Tn lottery? They do not care as long as they are taking all that play in Tn for a ride. You cant ask a question on their site anyway cause you cant use characters?$#@! or even periods....whoever did their site could not pass a class at ITT!good luck dude C2

I really have doubts. Not saying that couldn't happen... I'm just saying unlikely. The odds of buying 15 tickets and only one winning $20 is hard to believe when there is at least one $40 winner in every pack. And one $50 winner in every other pack. The guy in a suit must have been a lawyer because based on what I see... He lied.

well i was in the store the other day and you wouldnt believe a man came in there in a suit and ask the clerk for 7 rolls of those new millionaire 20.00 tickets,thats 2,100 dollars.he scratched one roll in the store won 20 bucks.left with the rest,but get this ,she said he came in the next day and was really upset because out of 7 rolls of tickets he won only 195.00 dollars.can you believe that

It's all relative... I've played in Texas and lost and I've played in Tennessee and won. It's all a game of CHANCE!!! I am very aware of TN's RNG drawings. In fact, I have emailed them in protest like others on this forum. However, there is no firm evidence of wrong doing in LP.

Look cher bought 120.00 worth of tickets(scratches) I dont buy them cause if you win 20.00 on 6 tickets then that shows me that Tn is not the best state to play scratches in .You buy a 20.00 ticket in tExas you can usually get at least a free ticket.... as to the lotto plus.....Tn can let someone hit whenever they want....have you watched their RNG?

What game(s) are you playing? Last time I checked the Lottery was agame of chance. There are winners and losers. Not every ticket canwin. If all were winners there wouldn't be a game.

I look at Instant Tickets based on odds BECAUSE the better chance you have at winning SOMETHING is a lot better than nothing. Researching prize payouts... Typically, the states with the worst odds and lowest top prizes have the LOWEST payout for that ticket. (Reason why I have been complaining about TN's past $20 tickets) Also, most people think... Overall odds aren't that different. (i.e 1:2.98 vs 1:3.5 is roughly a half a ticket right? WRONG!!! Since it is overall odds it considers all (MILLIO... [ More ]

Ummm....you do realize that the 'odds' you quote have nothing to do with how valuable a ticket is, right?

A ticket might win more often than another, but have a worse overall return.

Think about this: If there was a million ticket run of a scratch off ticket, and the top prize was $1 million dollars, but that was the only prize, would that be fair?

Oh you bet it would! That would mean that your total expected return is 100%! (if you bought all the tickets, you would at least make back y... [ More ]

Well, I must say I am a bit surprised. The Millionaire Club instant ticket has odds of 1:2.98. The best odds for any instant game right now... A lot better than the other $20 ticket. I have to say, I might have been wrong to judge this game before being released. Good luck if you plan on playing!!! The top prize is impressive; however, expect annuity if you hit the Jackpot...

TN players beware...

Tnplayer805 — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 06:10:13 GMT

A new $20 scratch off is coming... Millionaire Club or whatever... Just log on to the website and I'm sure you'll see more than enough about it. I've not been impressed with TN's $20 scratch offs thus far. Now, I do like the top prize (likely annuity); however, TN's odds for $20 scratch offs have been HORRIBLE. Some $5 tickets have been odds of winning that the $20. (i.e Sapphire Blue 7's $5 has overall odds of 1:3.07 whereas winter loser land had 1:3.25) Again, remember, millions of tickets are... [ More ]
