Good concern you brought up. In that event, the jackpot payments will go towards the people/beneficiaries specified on your will (if you make one) but they have to pay inheritence tax for the FULL REMAINING amount along with the winner's current estate worth, not year to year basis. They would have to take another private loan to pay off the IRS immediately and use the incoming jackpot money to pay off that loan over time. Powerball, Mega Millions, and SuperLotto Plus winners are advise

The lottery games no matter what all require dumb luck at the very end whether is the non-location dependant benefit of Draw Games (at 50% payout), or lower volitility (albeit still rather high) of Scratchers (68% - 76% payout for $5 to $20 games). I do not think Powerball in general is a popular game despite the 3 jackpot winners in the recent year. Despite the mini jackpot being so high (previous high was for the $590 million draw at $5.2 million without roll over since the previous $425 mi

The Nipton store is pretty much the biggest scratcher store I ever seen, lines are an hour long once Mega Millions or Powerball jackpot is at $100Million+. They do enforce the TICKET, by giving you a random ticket from a roll next to them. The monthly free play is a nice incentive, but it goes by real quick. I know the big four indian casinos (Morongo, Pechanga, San Manuel, Agua Caliente) do not have comission anymore though they once did. You would have to bet high per hand to migate the

Got hosed last night for $25.... Bought a merry millions and it as a loser, bought a sweet winnings and it was a loser, bought a mega millions QP and it was a loser. So far I haven't won a snip thing on a $20 ticket, kinda depressing even if I've only played five or six of them total. A $20 hit stings more then losing on a $5 or $10 ticket. Gonna try one more merry millions on friday and if its another dud I'm giving the $20 tickets up. This post has been automatically cha

How many different stores do you buy Scratch tickets from?Reply
I'd like to find a lucky store as well, that's why I expanded my search ring of stores to buy from. I think that is a better strategy, going after more locations. But that is debatable. For regular lottery pick/draw games, it really doesn't matter which store you buy from, as everything is drawn centrally and the store has no influence on the outcome. Yeah, I know that every time the Mega Millions gets huge, the local news always does a big story on some lucky store that sold a few multi-mill

Buy scratcher at one store, redeem at another?Reply
I will try to ask more retailers to see what they say. But honestly, I think sometimes they dont even know. one time as I purchased a mega millions ticket (The jackpot was over 100 million at the time) , I asked if he would get a bonus if he sold the winning ticket. He said no. I thought for sure they do, and I even posted here on Lottery Post and most people seem to think they do receive a bonus. But I have never thought about or asked about any other redemption i.e. scratchoffs or online

How to win at the Georgia $20 instant game, Maximum GreenReply
tn lottery also has the TN Lottery Black game. Very sleek looking card, came out about 2 or 3 months ago I think. It is also a $10 scratchoff with a winning amount of $250,000. SC has it as well but for only $200,000 (it must have come out in Dec or is coming in Jan -- saw the ads while there a few weeks ago). If memory serves, the TN one doesnt have very good odds. I think I bought one right when they came out but the odds just didnt appeal to me compared to other games. However, while in

How lucky have you been with scratch offs?Reply
Feb. of 2007 I won $500 on a $5 scratcher and then sometime in the end of July or begining of august 0f 2007 I hit on a $10 sratcher for $500. This was all in New York. Then a week later I hit on NY's 5/39 game for just over $500(I had 4/5). So from July of 07 to Oct 07 I could'nt lose. I was spending about $100 a day on scratchers plus buying beer and cigarettes with the winnings and I always had $600 - $700 in my pocket every day. And then somebody tuned off the fun valve, and the w
