Mark,Those are some good points on the betslips. I think the colors are chosen because they work well in card readers (the machine doesn't pick up the red or yellow markings as ink or pencil marks).How odd that you can play 4 (instead of 5) tickets on one card! Worse is using one betslip for multiple games. That's a good example of trying to cut costs, and only confusing matters.In New Jersey, the new Pick 3 Pick 4 betslips are not too bad, although they also have their problems. At least ther...

This wednesday's jackpot is 15M and there nothing like a decent size jackpot to attract players. Last week I was showed a list of ten sets of numbers, had I played them since the start of lottoplus I would have hit 4 over 28 times and matched 3+ twice, spending ~$1450 and winning over $2800. The last time this list match 4 was Nov.3rd, so it ready to hit again. Ohio can count on me to spend $10 this wednesday.RJOh
