Americans gamble over half a trillion dollars illegally each year, AGA Report saysReply
Raising the taxable limit from $1200 to $5000 on slot winnings isn't a bad thing for players. The problem is even the penny slot machines have jackpots over $5000. Players could record their profits and losses on the Schedule C form and say they are Professional Gamblers providing they can prove that there is a profit motive involved. Who do we see about raising the taxable limit on pick 4 winnings to $5000?

Eddie's New York lawyer waiting until the last hour caused red flags everywhere in the office. The time limit for claiming any of the multiple state jackpots should be uniform and so should anonymity.

Tennessee Lottery launches Daily Tennessee Jackpot draw gameReply
Free tix are QP's only. I've said it before (even griped to a TX Lottery Rep) that our jackpot games have poor jackpots for the odds. Of course, he doesn't have any control over that. But it felt good to jab him...LOL.

New York Lottery draws identical Take 5 results two drawings in a rowReply
Unfortunately, there are those that are either ignorant, or just not smart enough to understand that lotteries make money from selling tickets, and people winning jackpots are good for business, meaning people will buy tickets hoping to be the next winner. You are right, conspiracy heads are more vocal, logic doesnt apply.

THE LOTTERY IS ALWAYS RIGGED ( They Select The Winning Combination) WHETHER THEY USE A Lottery Draw Machine OR COMPUTERIZED LOTTERY DRAWINGS. The lottery should do the same for those Mega Millions and Powerball lottery jackpots, spread it to multiple winners.

VIDEO: Should you move to California to win the lottery?Reply
Lots of players wait to play MM and PB until the jackpot is over $300 million or more. By waiting to play until they believe jackpots are more likely to be hit, it sort of makes sense to buy tickets in states where it's more likely a jackpot winning ticket will be sold. Way back in the day, I drove from Ohio to West Virginia to buy tickets for the Big Game so it's not exactly necessary to move, but a I know I'm going to win player might consider it.
