You want believe this I just posted this picture up of my Son and I and his name came in N.Y. I see you are from N.Y and I was just talking to someone else about the Avartar. In N.Y His name was Shaun and his name came in the Lottery in NY. 397 Str8. I didn't know why I didn't think to post it. I was at the library when I put that picture in my Avartar the librarian helped me put it up. It's to small though. So now i am thinking the 710. could be something.

Some number bankers accepted bets as low as a penny. The real odds on Pick 3 or the numbers as they were originally know is a thousand to one. When you get 500 bucks from the lottery folks for your buck you're getting cheated. Numbers policy started in Harlem NY and was literally taken over by the Mafia when they found out how much money was being made.

Banker = The head man

Runner = The guy who collected the bets and paid off the winners.

Coin Toss — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 22:46:52 GMT

Whar rdgrnr said here is very true.

The Pick 3 existed eons before any legalized lottery. It was known as policy , started in the ghettos, and the bet was a nickel.

The state Pick 3 games were just clones of this game but used ping pong balls instead of the last three dollar digits of the total mutuel handle at that day's race track of choice. (The track varied so as not to invite any collussion).

As for Al Capone, boot legging, and the government, do a little research on JKK's father.... [ More ]

Go back to playing with The Outfit . Never any taxes regardless of the winnings. Well, if the middle digit of a Pick 3 is 1, they pay $50 less, but still.

The government only bans things if they're not getting a piece of the action. We don't have to worry about them banning the lottery for just that reason. It's a cash cow. People will do what they want to do one way or the other anyway, whether it's gambling or drinking alcohol. The government considered these things evil at one time and tried to outlaw them but the people gambled and drank anyway so the feds just jumped on the bandwagon and started charging us money (taxes) for the privilege of...

If lotteries were banned. you'd see see outrage on massive levels, yes there would finally be change. there would also be more crime in the form of illegal gambling. There would be a steamroll effect, more organized crime which will more to more drug dealing more theft more murder, being a numbers runner is a high risk occupation. isn't that what the whole gangster era of the 30's and 40's were about.

The Roots of Modern Lotteries: The roots of today's lotteries can be traced as far back as the Roman Empire.

Americans got in on the lottery business, too. In fact, a lottery allowed the first American colonists in Jamestown to raise enough money to keep the colony going through the winters. After the Revolutionary War, lotteries became very popular because they provided a way for people to pay for the rebuilding of towns and cities as well as other projects without being taxed.
