The best strategy for you would be to spend as little as possible of your own money while leaving yourself open to winning as much as possible. Seems to me you should be buying two Lotto and two Fantasy a week (12 and 10 numbers each on two tickets one day)(Lotto play numbers above 31 Fantasy play numbers above 13) and what's left in one dollar scratchers. When you win play bigger with their money, then back to the least possible. Be sure to visit a site like lotto crawler to find the scratchers... [ More ]

I am in FL too, northeast FL. My suggestion is to pick one game out of Lucky Money, Lotto, MM or PB. Buy an advance play for the whole month. Throw in the extra dollar if you want. But that's the only game you play that month. One ticket every draw.

NeedyNotGreedy, My Sister in Law gave me a $20 scratcher and I won $50.00. I spent forty on MM PB and ate the rest.

Your plan to only buy one $20 ticket per month is reasonable. It keeps you in the game. You never know when a windfall will occur in your life.

Stick to the plan

This isn't about Ltto strategies so to speak. But personal ones. I'm at my wits end with the lotto, but part of me wants to stay in the game. Personally, I cannot afford to play anymore. I have to spend a lot on gas,and throwing even $10 into lotto instead of my tank can mess me up. I see threads where people buying books of tickets...right now my budget is like $20 a month, or $5 a week lol. But I keep telling myself I need to play more to see results.

Since I began scratch offs, I've been... [ More ]
