We will probably see a trend of states trying to get away with the 2 dollar sales for various lottery games.

Just realized I made a mistake.

11 numbers or 1 number pays $500.

10 numbers or 2 numbers pays $50.

Sounds like an interesting game, but I sure wouldn't drop $2 four times a day. Whew

Just read the minutes from February commissioner meeting. They are starting the process to introduce a new game called All or Nothing.

A player picks 12 numbers from a field of 24. If all 12 numbers that are picked are drawn, or if the player has none of his numbers drawn, the top prize is $250,000. 11 numbers or 1 number d... [ More ]
