As in sports a W is a W. Sharing the pot or not, I'm flipping a profit on my lifetime lotto spending - most like a vast one at that. Hitting a JP and sharing - I can dig it for sure

Whether it is your on chosen numbers or a quick pick--the bottom line in winning is: 1) the luck of the draw and

2) being at the right place and right time in buying your winning lottery tickets

For MM there has been several occasions where there were multiple JP winners.

well, you wouldn't even have an LP, or observe any other lottery games experience longevity with that kind of mindset.

if the lotteries are exploitable from the inside out thru inside manipulation , and people caught wind of that, LP would be a dust bowl, and people like me wouldn't be able to blowficate (i just made that up).......the real facts

i just wish people would stick to facts, instead of manufacturing some, so they can make something sound true

it's random all right.

Yep it does not matter. Random is only a popular concept.

So is integrity. P.T.Barnum had many hoaxes and laughed all the way to the bank about the suckers and integrity.

an integrity glitch could virtually kill a lottery dead in the water.

you are totally right that the odds are stacked high enough that it negates conspiracy dreamers.

shoot, just like i have maintained in here all along, the odds of just the pick3 make it uncrackable

As for QP vs SP. It doesn't matter. It's still random .

it certainly is. couldn't have said it better myself, especially if they ever made me a lottery director

Well, I figured that's what DD was saying. I just wanted to get clarification . LOL.

I have said it before, and will say it again. Lotteries don't have to fix or cheat, the odds alone make it hard enough. As for making sure there are losers to make the jackpots higher, well, look at PB that just got hit Saturday night. It wasn't what I would call a high jackpot.

I don't understand why someone would bother to play if they have that much distrust. Might as well go to a casino.

As for QP v... [ More ]

oh geez.

what lengths people won't go to, to create their point.

what DD is accusing the lottery of, is akin to fixing the results, manufacturing the intended result, etc.

that's a lie. they don't withold any combinations , and they certainly don't fix the game

well, put it this way, if it is the truth, then lottery players that caught a wiff of that would steer way clear of playing a fixed game .

who is gonna throw money at a game they have no chance of winning? now listen to tha... [ More ]

A moment of clarity:

I do not want the RNG for the drawn winning numbers to be confused with a QP POOL 'Random' COMBINATION sales Generator.

Whether the draw is by computer or with balls does not matter in the point I am making. I am speaking of the sales of QP s from terminals. I remember when the sales info was a bit different and when the jackpot gets up there, it is news. To get the jackpot up there for stellar sales requires that nobody wins.

I've been reading all these threads about QP's and SP's just trying to decipher.

So, correct me if I'm wrong (which is very possible), but do you mean to say that states and MM and PB all limit the combinations of QP sales??? They only try to sell certain combinations?

I have looked at the sales of all the lottery games (except scratch offs) for Texas, and they never sell ALL of the combinations. For example, there are 25,827,165 combinations in the Lotto Texas game. When the jackpot was a... [ More ]

Good post CT.

Looks like a P5 got real big. Looks like there were many players. Based on the QP sales for that draw, the combinations for the odds and the likely hood two QP s could be bought, does it add up?

My only point is there should only be one QP winner per sale of all the combinations.

If that is not the case then a limited pool of store QP s are sold for the same draw. It is not unconceivable for multiple winners if the limited pool is sold several times for one draw and they h... [ More ]

The rules are anyone having all the winning numbers gets or shares the jackpot. If the other winner had a problem with that then it's his/her problem, not mines. I would be happy regardless because it would be the first time I had ever won or shared a lottery jackpot and I would owe it all to my system.

Oh I get it, this is the wound licking follow-up thread to a great question that got answered and they did not like the results. Talk about a narssisistic Ego! My answer is the best because the shoe fits, you backwards QP shills.

Funny you should ask because I was educated on that very thing just today.

Here's the answer:

There would be no Quick Pick winner.

Why, you ask?

Because I said so.

I hope that was a good enough answer because afterall I can recite my multiplication tables blindfolded and therefore you are not fit to be in my presence, much less asking silly questions about issues I have decided already.

Now we would like to watch you spin.

Let's say you work out a set of numbers by whatever means and they hit a jackpot but someone with a QP shares the same jackpot.

How would you best describe such a situation?

PP = Player's Pick

QP = Quick Pick
