Ron.. Just saw your post. I work in the Wyomissing area and frequent one store regularly. Interesting about the profits. The more people win,the more they play. I don't think someone would throw $500 back in, but if you hit $50 or so I can see people throwing it back(especially the gambler). Tons of dud means people give up. Middle size prizes make people keep playing cause of the thrill of the win..

Ditto on much of what you posted. The $5 tickets seem to be the best value for one on a limited budget. Lots of $100 prizes, which is a nice win for a $5 ticket.

While statistically, the $20 games are better, it takes a lot more dough to play, and strings of losers are nearly as likely as the lower denomination tickets. I've had many $20 losers in a row - 6+ many times, and upwards of 10 once.

In PA, and likewise in many other states, since a handful of companies develop and supply tickets... [ More ]

That's a pretty comprehensive write up dr65!

I'd agree with most of what dr65 said, I have done the best on the $20 Golden Ticket and the new $20 christmas tickets.

The new $20 christmas ticket is VERY ANNOYING to scratch and it smells just plain awful. It's just way too strong. I hit $500 on one

on monday.

The new $5 holiday gifts might just be my favorite ticket. Very very easy to see if you've won or not, and I hit $500 on it as well on monday.

As for t... [ More ]

What are you playing?

A few here and there or rolls?

Low or high cost tickets?

How long had you been playing in Florida and what type? Did you play often enough to get a feel for

what to go for in Florida tickets or were you just lucky with a little bit played?

$20 PA tickets - Goldens are usually good but they fell pretty much back to paying $20

The new $20 Christmas ticket will be good for a couple days...they're hard to scratch and annoying to

the senses... [ More ]

Sorry. I have a Chrome bookmark that I keep updating to the page# of the Winning Forum and never see the main page,. I know it seemed the Florida people would post alot of big winnners and the PA people would have nothing to show. I would say there is roughly 5-10 regular posters here from PA and a few that also pop up. What region of PA are you in? Northwest/Southwest/Central/Northeast/Southeast? I can tell you I been playing 19 years and only saw 1-$1000 and maybe 10 or so $500. I might not be... [ More ]
