Suspicion & ParanoiaReply
Are you saying they were scanning already printed tickets or running the playslips to print new tickets? You mentioned ez match on F5 so I would think you meant running the playslips to print new tickets? (since checking an ez match F5 ticket is simple as the numbers and matching numbers with dollar amounts are right on the ticket). It's entirely possible that the machine did jam. It is also possible a less than honest clerk saw an ez match winner and decided to keep it. You can alwa

Got 2 extreme green tix tonight 017-018 first one lost and 018 got the 10x symbol. It was only $100 winner but I was glad it didn't have $5 under it.. that pisses me off when they do that. For the amount Ive spent lately I was hoping for 1k. I did have some great luck on pick 4 today so no Complaints here. Good luck everyone

Lucky and unlucky Scratch-off ticket numbersReply
Hey JaZee, I'd love to have the inside scoop on what people play, win on and what they think of different tickets. I'll bet you heard a good many stories, complaints and got some very interesting insight. I think I know what you're talking about - - the thin white line....is it a mark in the coating of the ticket? Oh yeah, the new tickets sure do win more often in the first days and couple weeks out. 2 weeks max is about what it takes to get to where the other, older tickets are....f

NC Instant Ticket Players, good info for you and comments wanted
Hi There, It's been a while since I've posted...too busy at work during the busiest time of the year! Anyway, today, one of my coworkers from our Ohio office told me something about scratchoffs that I found interesting. We were talking about playing the instant tickets, in General, and I told him that I didn't anymore basically because it seems so hard to win a large prize in NC. He told me that the reason this may be is that retailers have opportunity to scan the barcodes of all

"Stale" Scratch off cardsReply
Our $20 Christmas peppermint ticket was like that here in PA....I say was because they seemed to have fixed the problem, it's not difficult to scratch anymore. Anyway, when it was so frustrating scratching part of the card off in the process, I'd just scratch the scan box and scan the stupid thing. What a waste - no playing the game like that - but it was easier that way. Now that PA has obviously had complaints and fixed the problem and it's a lot easier to scratch, that

Found a $20 Christmas Merry Millions today, first one out and done...$50 x 2 = $100 ticket number 017. I've been finding strings of $20 winners on the 20x the Money...I've come to this conclusion.....they distribute set amounts on a rolling basis to different areas. Some weeks an area will have NO $100 winners, then you'll find nothing but $25 winners...then you'll find nothing but $0.00 winners. Before someone jumps in and says: Duh dr... there's a pattern here. There has GOT to be

Weird, Retailer denied paymentReply
For Information. I write nasty letters all the time to companies, even to the Government. Ooops! Guess they have a file on me huh? LOL! The point is, I get results all the time and free stuff, apologies, and money. I just state the facts in my letters and the kicker is that I also say that I'm going to tell all my friends about how this Xcompany is treating their customers. Try it - write to the lottery commission and see if you get any results. If you want, send them a copy of the

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
I enjoyed reading your tweets, we should be able to request the information of how many World Class cash books were sent to that specific retailer within a time frame. Before making any direct foul play complaints, we should do a little more research. You're right that the ability to mass order books is one advantage, and lottery retailers can also call the warehouse to check to see if there's any returned books on games that are no longer orderable. This potentially allows a retailer a better c

Need a new strategy and motivationReply
James I wish a voice in my head would tell me which ticket to buy and that it would be a million dollar choice. I'll tell you what you need to do..just buy 2 - 4 and stop. I don't mean for the day, I mean at that machine or counter. Don't buy up to the winner. I think what's happening is you're stuck on bad packs or stuck with the idea the winner is there somewhere....the problem is: you do not know who was there before you and whether they won $1,000 or $20 or $500. You also cannot tel
