My personal thoughts are that the big number games as we know them won't be around much longer,

maybe a few more years. Once the JP's reach a certain level games can be exploited by anyone with a

large bankroll. Scratchers are also the major money makers here in MO and I suspect that's true anywhere

they are offered. MO 5-39 only accounts for around 2% of ticket sales. If the lottery could package a scratchers

ticket that added several more ways to win plus a chance at the JP then th... [ More ]

Illinois, for one.

They used to have $5 MM and PB scratchers but withouf the free QP. Now the tickets are back with the free QP gimmick.

It's no mystery that these different state lottery directors talk to each other.

They are singing my tune. I find it amazing that people cry and whine over my suggestions of a $4. MM ticket while all the states offer scratchers at $5. $10 and $20. per tickets. If there wasn't a market for such a price point the states would not be printing them. Count my in on the $5. tickets.

Wow thats interesting but if I pay $5.00 I'd want to win more than a $1 quick pick

Not sure what to think about this, maybe it's a test to see how people respond. Why else

would they name it after these games? One of the prizes is a free ticket for the actual draw.
