Only one scratch off in TN has NO 3-letter codes. Why is that?Reply
That is interesting. Of course as you know the codes are to I.D. a winner. I doubt it was printed by a different company since TEL has a contract with a ticket printing company. There may have been a printing glitch which cased them NOT to print letters on this particular ticket. (Not saying the tickets are flawed) OR... This could be a new evolution. Although the newer tickets have them... they still may have been printed before Bonanza. Lottery officials vote on logistics each quarter and orde

post if you have purchased a roll of scratch-off'sReply
You are so right James1, All sports scratch offs are the worst rip off. I took my chance at Orlando Magic too and got nuthin. I'm boycotting NFL this year if they don't go on strike, I'll only be watching College sports. Go Kentucky for FINAL FOUR I keep thinking, if only I took all that money I spent on 5.00 sports tickets and bought Spectacular or a 20.00 ticket instead. Plus, stupid NFL, they pay their players Millions, Owners make billinons and their lousy 5.00 ticket is only worth 100,0

When a set series wins, do you play or move on?Reply
I think the issue is how the tickets are printed. With most packs having nothing but the minimum guaranteed amount of prizes, those are printed in bulk with a select few being diverted for additional wins to be added. For economy sake, the fewer packs you divert for additional prizes, the lower your costs so the printing company is going to try and put as many winning tickets onto the same pack as the contract will allow. This results in hot packs and cold packs which are shuffled before distrib

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
So I see the $20 GRC ending has finally been announced...it's had quite the run, and I still have a single unscratched holiday themed sample from 2018 in my roster of tickets...will have to remember to dust it off and scratch it before the deadline. If I recall it's from a very low book #, like in the 2,000s. Anyway that's not the point of the post, rather it's New Game Alert! Here's the rundown: $50 Explosion $1 game is simple # match to win up to $50. Not crunched the #s on it yet b

Working Scratch of tactics threadReply
So far, I've identified several strategies First, selecting the game: There's the basic expectation where you sum up the products of the prize value and the probability of hitting that prize. This doesn't take into account the volatility of the game such as with Super Set For Life where it's pretty much all on none. There's rating the games by the sum of the log value of the prize value to price ratio divided by the log value of the odds against for that prize. This favours the lower

Any GA players?Reply
Millionaire Jumbo Bucks is the oldest $20 game out there, and it has been my experience that it has very few good winners. I usually lose, but if I win it is usually a free ticket, up to $40 or $50. The only advantage it has over Maximum Green is that while Maximum Green has the most winners in the hundreds of dollars, Millionaire Jumbo Bucks has more prizes in the thousands of dollars. A good strategy that has been working out fairly well for me is to buy one of each of the $20 games, sometimes

Do not get burned by this service station!Reply
It doesn't matter HOW many tickets he has..I'm a manager at a gas station (not the owner) and the owners usually only had 5-8 books of tickets at a time. Yes, but I bet you have several hundred tickets altogether, not less than a dozen. I would think nothing of a store that had 8 books of tickets, especially if it was in a slow area. I have been in this store three times, over the period of a couple months. The first time, I bought the last two tickets he had, in the entire store. Meaning tha
