I'm starting to think this is really a curse.

Played 777 straight with the Fireball, 277 hit. Fireball didn't help.

Last night I had 123, the draw was 723 and the Fireball was 1

Tonight I had 251, the draw was 451 and the fireball was 2.

Didn't play the fireball either time.

Coin Toss,

That game will drive you nuts.

Of course, I like to play Pick 4. I'm sitting here right now wondering if I want to drop $5 or $10 on one number for 25k or 50k. The odds are sooooooo enticing.

Then when I lose, I tell myself I've lost my mind. LOL.

I remember playing Cash-3 in 1992 with the numbers 1-2-5 straight on a $5.00 wager. After a while, I heard that Play-4 paid $5000 straight. Thus, I decided to switch instead of increasing my wager. The moment I switched to Play-4, my numbers on Cash-3 popped up. I wished I saw that Play-4 was really a $10 Cash-3 Lotto ticket. I think that best way to ever win the lottery is by playing Cash-3 with the same number set straight on multiple tickets. Imagine if you wager $1000 on the game with one se... [ More ]

I used to play 104 in Virginia every time there was a Tuesday where the day of the month, when you added them until you got a single digit, added up to 2 (i.e. the 2nd, 11th, 20th, and 29th). At the time, 104 had five wins. Three of them were on Tuesdays, and three of them were on the 2nd, 11th, 20th, or 29th.

Tue. 05/02/2006, played 104 50/50, they drew 414.

Tue. 03/20/2007, played 104 50/50, they drew 400. I was displeased on multiple levels. Any other digit for the last digit would hav... [ More ]

They sometimes say that Pick-3 is the easiest of all lottery games. But they are not as easy as they sometimes appear to be. Although if a person sticks to the same numbers they pick, it will eventually pop up. The question is are you willing to play the 1-Off option that allows you to win when you miss the winning number by 1 degit? I believe that some states have the 1-off lottery play option. This might be worth looking in to because the Florida Lotto has recent presented that option....

True. But if a person were to buy 500 tickets($1 for each Pick 3 Lotto ticket) with one set of numbers straight on all of them, they are going to get $250K in total winnings if those numbers hit. Although I have yet to hear of anyone trying to wager $500 worth of tickets that is based on the prize amount of $500 for a straight set per ticket with the same one set of numbers. Afterall, those who win actually play the numbered games with the small payouts and multiply the average prize amount per

You misunderstood my post RJ- l meant him missing out on the P3 and bagging a larger jackpot= MM/PB game. The fault is mine, l was not specific enough.

All Pick3 prizes are fixed amounts, they don't get bigger with time.

Perhaps it was not meant to be- Perhaps a bigger jackpot awaits CT.

Two 'miss by one' Pick 3s and 'bad numbers' for Pick 5

Coin Toss — Mon, 20 Apr 2015 05:03:20 GMT

I know a lot of people miss by one often but this is the first time I did this one:

My numbers:

300

537

Draw: 730

So the first one had the 3 and the 0, the second one had the 3 and the 7.

Both were straight box plays.

Same evening, Illinois Lucky Day lotto- a 5/45 game, results:

3 4 6 9 19

A lot of people would have considered those bad numbers if they got them on a quick pick. Nobody won the jackpot, it rolled, but you just never know,... [ More ]
