My answer can go for both of your threads this one and the powerball one, but I've won more when I've chosen my own numbers and they have had muiltiple lines. Usually, three or four lines. However, I don't think how many lines I play has any bearing on if I win or not.

I believe you are reading too much into it.

They don't believe there is a difference between buing 5 plays on one ticket, and 3 plays on one and 2 on another. Why not just do it the easiest way

All my winnings have been computer picks with 5 lines ( a kicker) on each ticket. Got a 3+mega ball a couple weeks ago...that was nice.

All my winnings have been with my own numbers because I only play numbers I pick. I remember reading an article about commonality of MegaMillions winning numbers which might be of interest to you but I've forgotten where I saw it.

Ohio has never had a promotion to give away free MM tickets, the jackpot has always been promotion enough but they do offer the option of playing the kicker game which can only be played if you buy a MM ticket with 1-5 lines.

First post is for Powerball - This one is for Mega Millions

I posted the above poll to see if fellow posters can help shed some light on the poll. This information has always bothered me - Is it better to buy single tickets with one line each - or is there any correlation between the timing mechanism in the lottery machine and the number it generates that makes the randomness and combination of the numbers any more likely if any correlation can
