Accidental lottery ticket purchase nets Maryland couple $2 million in PowerballReply
Our self serve machines do not have replay feature either if that's what you're talking about. Our clerks can replay your tickets for you. Naturally I wrote IGT (physical letter, no e-mail) suggestion that the machines be equipped with a replay feature...naturally this shareholder never got a reply. However years before that I wrote them in Las Vegas and said I had won several jackpots on their WOF slot machines. They sent me a very nice WOF with IGT on the back.

$935 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot nears billion-dollar milestoneReply
I feel this pot going to climb into the top 3 Maybe, but it needs to almost double, to about 1.815 billion to be in the real top 3, based on the current cash:annuity ratio. It will reach a billion by Saturday for sure. That would require actual sales to be almost twice as much as the original forecast. Call me crazy, but I think that seems just a tiny bit unlikely. Considering the odds are even higher for mega millions than they are for Powerball ... The very high odds for

$865 MILLION: Powerball jackpot reaching historic levelsReply
I've been playing for 20 years! I'm happy if I just matched the 5 Mega ball with Mega Plier and go off into the sunset. For the life of me I don't understand why people will still play after winning $10 million or $100 million jackpots from the lottery. I know several people who won millions of dollars but they continue to play. Don't they know they beat tremendous odds. Hey but their stories of people who got struck by lightning twice in the same spot. I seen some crazy odds of like 1 in a tril

Accusations of "disturbing" new claims procedures after Allwyn sends investigator to winner's homeReply
If Amelia Barnham won large jackpots, I could understand the National Lottery carrying out checks to ensure everything was above board. But as Amelia won 23,600 (US$30,206) in small prizes over time. It seems like an overreaction.

Oregon woman who doesn't check lottery tickets wins $1 million in raffleReply
Dude, people do buy containers to store their lottery tickets in hopes of getting around to checking them eventually. I guess you never heard of people who also store their lottery tickets in the glove box in their car. One guy who does this says, he only takes the tickets out of the glove box every 3 or 4 months or so when he decides to clear out his car. He did check the pile of tickets and discovered a winning ticket of 10K. Also storing tickets in containers, glove boxes and other places is

Nebraska Lottery will join Lotto America in MayReply
Lotto America is run by MSLU, the Powerball people. Supposedly, it replaced the Hot Lotto game which was destroyed by Eddie Tipton who programmed winning numbers in for relatives, friends, and eventually himself when he worked for the lottery, and was caught and sent to jail. The Lotto America game was supposed to be a ball drawn game when they started it and was drawn in private after the Powerball drawing. No actual video of such a drawing ever took place that I know of and the game seemed to
