Not that this would make an ounce of difference to The Florida Lottery but 26 out of the 52 midday drawings that have been held did not have a jackpot winner. 50% of all midday drawings saw the top tier prize be rolled down to the lower tier winners. Did they NOT see this coming? There's a reason why only half of the midday drawings have produced a jackpot winner. That reason is called poor coverage . Not enough tickets were sold in each one of those 26 drawings to cover enough combinations

It seems pretty obvious to me that due to the fact that more often than not there is no jackpot winner for the midday Take5 drawing, ticket sales are very weak for the midday drawing. Players of NY's Take5 can easily see that if you buy a midday ticket there's a very good chance that nobody will win the jackpot, and therefore they opt for the evening drawing where the jackpot is won more frequently and it's usually bigger than the midday jackpot. I would point out however that NY has seen an

At about five minutes after one PM this afternoon the first midday drawing of FF5 is going to be held. I'm very curious to see what the jackpot amount will be provided of course, that somebody even wins the jackpot. I have to believe ticket sales over night last night were not very robust. There's no way they could have sold approximately $300,000 worth of tickets after eleven fifteen PM last night. If they did, half of that amount ($150,000) would have been allocated to the winners pool, an

A jackpot never increases with a roll down . Jackpots increase with a roll over. FF5's official rules were not changed. The only thing that is changing is the number of drawings per day. A rolldown of the top tier prize (the jackpot) is still going to happen. The official rules say absolutely nothing about the number of drawings per day, therefore The Florida Lottery does not have to change the official rules to add an extra drawing each day. FF5 uses a roll down , not a roll over . Me

Lots of interesting stuff to write about today..... Last night saw one FF5 winner of $219,575 with a FREE TICKET sold in Clearwater!!!! In the above post I wrote So yeah, Free Tickets aint much, but don't try telling that to a guy who has won a FF5 jackpot with one Told ya not to scoff at Free Tickets! Pretty big jackpot but maybe it's due to the fact it's Snowbird season and also spill over from ticket sales for the 1.35 billion dollar MegaMillions jackpot. (Which as won by one player

I haven't taken a look at the New York Lottery's website in a very long time. This morning I decided I'd take a look at it. Specifically I wanted to see the history of Take5 drawing results. I'm glad I took that look.... Typical Take5 jackpots were definitely cut in half, but almost every day the evening drawing jackpot amount was larger than the midday top prize amount. That's IF there even was a jackpot winner for the midday draw, and on many/most dates there was no jackpot winner.

More about Player behavior..... I just cant see players spending twice as much per day on FF5 than they typically do. I know I won't do that. And players in New York didn't do it either. Nobody is in their right mind is going to double their spend and very likely lose twice as much as they did before. There is a core group of regular FF5 players that buy FF5 tickets every day (I'm one of them...although I don't play 7 days per week) and they are not going anywhere. The Florida Lottery knows

Selling lottery tickets across the entire USA is a massive business. It's a multi-Billion dollar business. Corporations like AT T, Exxon/Mobil, NetFlix and IBM are multi-billion dollar enterprises. So lottery ticket sales is huge. That means the people who run the states lottery games are managing an extremely vital not to mention a huge source of revenue for the states, and they know many things about managing that business that most players never even think about or realize. One thing
