Michael Brown,Actually, I think you have things a bit reversed:The state lotteries are the LEGAL lotteries that you can play. If you want your friend in Florida to buy some lottery tickets for you, then that's fine, right? We'll that's what a service like Prime Ticket Service does. That's all and good. In fact, there have been several jackpots won by people who bought tickets using lottery services like Prime Ticket Service, and every single person who won using a service was able to legally

Georgia lottery bill would protect education fundsNews Story
Ralph Reed, a Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, on Thursday endorsed Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue's call for a state constitutional amendment that would prevent lottery money from being used for anything except HOPE college scholarships, pre-kindergarten classes and building up financial reserves. Competition to the lottery from surrounding states is increasing, revenues will level off over the long haul, and we need this measure to ensure long-term fiscal solvency, Reed said.Reed's on

Indiana, RNGs & Allegations: Time to TestReply
To prove this one way or the other mathematically would require tens of thousands of draw results and that would only work if the draw corruption was extremely blatant.Logically, however, the facts that triples result in large payouts, and that triples are appearing at an expected frequency, tends to discredit the concept that there is an algorithmic procedure manipulating the draw results. Such a program, were it to be used, would have to be intelligent enough to know when high payout results

Indiana, RNGs & Allegations: Time to Test
We've all read the numerous posts about the Hoosier Lottery's use of RNGs. Most people seem to think that there's something crooked going on. I'll have to admit that I at first thought all the charges of fraud were altogether groundless. After looking at the payouts on Indiana's daily games, I began to think that there was perhaps some substance to accusations made against the Hoosier Lottery. Now, I'm thinking that the lottery games in Indiana simply aren't very popular. That would very easily

America needs a National Lottery!Reply
A government that can give everything to you can take everything away. We don't need another lottery. The track record of state lottery organizations has been miserable. Why take this greed and corruption to a higher level? The state lottery organizations start out with good intentions and slowly but surely run the whole thing into the ground seeking higher profits.Here in Texas the TLC was supposed to spend the proceeds on education, but it goes into the general fund. They claim the procee

Are Lotteries RiggedReply
Jim695 wrote: Corruption and fraud are on the rise in state lotteries.No doubt that this occurs however many of the games are run by gaming officials that are constantly monitoring the games. Stealing from the coffers is one thing rigging the game is another. I'm not saying that it can't happen. It would take some clever trick to fool the gaming officials. Especially with guards watching video taping every move the lottery personnel make. The preparation the personnel take before the balls are d
