Playing the lottery on a weekly basis is insane regardless of the jackpot size

I agree cuz like old Jerry Reed said: When You're Hot You're Hot and When You're Not You're Not.

If you only play once, it might be when you're Not.

yeah the odds of winning the pot are better if you buy 52 tickets in 1 draw than 1 ticket in 52 draws.

but who wants to wait for 1 draw a year., its the many little dreams ea week that keep people happy.

personally i dont know what draw im meant to win, so i play em all.,

JP games are too hard to win. I stick with p-3. people always say someone wins most of the time, but many many losing tickets, millions, for one person to win. in powerball you have same odds as getting hit with meteor. I will buy california fantasy five maybe twice a month for a dollar each time, and that;s it. if you sit around all day long dreaming that winning a jp will get you out of your miserable rut, then you need head examined. Then it becomes an obsession and no longer fun to play.

On the positive side of things, millions of players will be buying 1 Quick Pick Ticket to test their Luck, since they believe that a $254.2 Millions powerball jackpot was won with 1 Quick Pick Ticket.I just feel that it is insane to chase a lottery jackpot by playing 1 quick pick ticket over and over again with negative results. I would rather save some lotto lines by skipping a few draws and buy 5 or 10 lines on one shot regardless of the jackpot size.

Actually, selling furniture correlates with feelings such as irritation, frustration,and aggravation, which has for me worsened to agony, depression, violence, and thoughts of suicide.

Gambling, with the hope of winning enough to retire helps relieve all those bad feelings.

I like to play every week if I can because you can win smaller prizes if you don't win the jackpot. Since you are more than likely not going to win the jackpot every drawing you can win smaller prizes like $1 million or $10,000 or $150 or $100 or the smaller prizes. But you don't win if you don't play.-weshar75

For all gamblers, even small-time bettors, gambling at the very least correlates with feelings such as irritation, frustration and aggravation then can worsen to agony, depression, violence and suicide. Gamblers may not always admit experiencing these feelings. However, gamblers definitely do experience these feelings. Even small-time $1 a week lottery players get irritated, frustrated and aggravated when always losing. Rarely though do gamblers only bet $1 a week even if saying that. When gambl... [ More ]

Why not buy 52 Quick Pick Tickets once a year and be done with it.But how many times do you dream of winning? Do you have to win every week to be happy? Of course not. You only have to win once. So you only have to buy one ticket, at some time in the future to be able to legitimately dream of winning a huge jackpot.
