The $29.95 Non-BelieverzReply
I just checked that game out. The odds look pretty good. And as high as the jackpot is. Compared to the odds. A courier service could wreck this game tonight. Again good luck if your getting a ticket tonight!

Michigan man wins $6 million prize after playing the lottery for 40 yearsReply
The math don't math on scratchers in my state. Odds will say for example 1 and 3.68 or some bs like that. I buy 10 and only scratch 1 winner. If that. But I'm sure it's because I'm stupid. And the odds mean something completely different.

Delaware Lottery celebrates 50th anniversary with launch of first $50 scratch-off ticketReply
When $50 tickets came out in other states 10+ years ago, the overall odds of winning was much better. Sad to see their first ticket with such terrible odds for the cost

Mega Millions $5 price increase and game changes take effect this weekendReply
Agreed, they increase ticket price by 150% but only improved jackpot odds by 4%. The odds to win ANY prize also only increased 4%. Too bad it wasn't an April fools joke!

Mega Millions $5 price increase and game changes take effect this weekendReply
Yeah, it's 1 in 24.9. The story is fixed. The 1 in 38 that was previously in the story is the odds of matching just the Powerball, not the overall odds of winning any prize.

Florida Fantasy-5 PlayersReply
You have to understand something about how I play FF5 that I made no mention of in my post above. I think of FF5 as a game where I'm playing for a jackpot win due to it's lower odds. With PB or MM, I don't play them for a jackpot win because the odds of winning a jackpot are so astronomically stacked against players. Instead I play for a five number match in those games, and I add the Power Play or The Megaplier options. I've even been known to play five lines of PB with the same set of the

Lottery odds by removing combinations?Reply
Back in the day when all pick 5, 5 + 1, and 6 tickets were a $1, played abbreviated wheels that included eliminating numbers and obviously the combos they are in. My favorite was a 14 number 3 if 4 wheel with 19 lines I used playing Ohio's 5/39 Rolling Cash game. Winning the jackpot meant none of the 25 numbers I wasn't using could be drawn. A full 14 number pick 5 wheel has 2002 combinations so the odds of one of those combos being drawn are 2002 divided by the total of the 575,757 possibl

Pennsylvania Lottery releases its own Cash Pop draw gameReply
I misstated something from the PAlottery website yesterday. I said the odds of getting a possibility of a $250 prize on a $1 bet was 15,000 to 1. The odds for that are actually 1,000 to 1. When you factor in the 15 possible numbers, that's where the 15,000 to 1 comes from. In case anybody finds this useful, here are the bet amounts and the prize ranges. $1 bet, prize range $5 to $250 $2 bet, prize range $10 to $500 $5 bet, prize range $25 to $1,250 $10 bet, prize range $50
