Finally after 3 years someone hit the 1 million dollars a year for life scratch off.Reply
This is ridiculous. I know that is why there are so many old games in Georgia that never seem to die. I never thought about the destroyed tickets, I had assumed that they were just in the back of a roll in a back woods town where very few people buy tickets. I am getting very sick of the lottery recently. Anything but $20 tickets are a joke in most cases, and you are wasting your money. I have spent $140 on the NEW $10 ticket, 50X The Money. Even if you get just $1 and a 50X symbol, you will

Lucky and unlucky Scratch-off ticket numbersReply
I really wouldn't be cynical, but I understand. I used to be too, until I realized that long strings happen in every game, and that it almost certainly means that there is a good chance that a big winner accompanied it, either before or after. I have played Maximum Green a total of 5 times now, and of that, two were losers, one won $100, and two won $25, for a total of $150. If I keep up with numbers like that, I will be very happy. The losses do add up quickly. I have no intentions of going out

Any GA players?Reply
I was certain that I had won $300,000 on $3,000,000 Taxes paid, but it was a tiny piece of scratch-off dust that made it look like I had won the $300K. I was all shaky and called my wife and she was like no way, and I swore it was true. then i wiped the card a little cleaner, and it was the wrong number. It did win a free ticket though. Maximum Green has had about 4 of the 6 $5,000,000 prizes paid out, so there is still some life left in it. Galottery.com has winners posted in there, but they

$500 winner - Georgia Lottery BLACKReply
I don't know why you can't post pics. If you want you can PM me with them and I can post them for you. I think I saw your video, you dirty rat. Is this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyflRVlT4l8 the correct video? Our rolls of tickets are all $300, so our numbers repeat more often, especially on the more expensive tickets. If I were to spend $300 on a roll, I know I would get at least $180 back, but unless there was a $500 winner in there or at least 2 $100 winners, I would probably lose mone

Lucky and unlucky Scratch-off ticket numbersReply
I am so mad at myself. Last year, I decided that draw games were not for me because I was losing so much more at them than on instant games, but that was when I was buying $2, $3 and $5 games and only spending $5 to $10 a day at the most. Back then I thought a $5 ticket was expensive, and a $10 ticket was insane! I have decided to play a little here recently. I played Cash 3 the other day, 10 numbers box/straight. I had 8 tickets with at least 1 number correct, and 2 tickets with 2 numbers co

How to win at the Georgia $20 instant game, Maximum GreenReply
Matt, I am glad that at least you have more sense than me. I should and do know when to quit, but the problem is that I am not a quitter. I very well may have OCD. I do not seem to be able to do anything half way. I either do something well or don't do it at all. I am a perfectionist, and that is my problem with the lottery. It is not perfect. I hope to be able to use better judgement in the future. I am going to investigate the theory again of buying single tickets from each game or book, and s

Lucky and unlucky Scratch-off ticket numbersReply
Well, I got $100 on a $1 ticket, so it does happen, but not that often. I would do what seems to work the best. I have found the majority of winners on odd numbers, for example, but not always. Just like with winning two in a row, it may happen from time to time, but not very often, and the second winner is not usually that big even if it happens. If you keep up with a certain roll, you might not always be able to pinpoint where the next winner will fall, but you might do better than blind luck.

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

There should be a law against scratching in the storeReply
Sounds like a good idea to me. I usually just grab a few and take them home, but sometimes I scratch them in the store. Take today for example. I bought a $20 Maximum Green and it lost. I purchased another ant it won a ticket. The numbers were going down: 005 lost, and 004 won a free ticket, so statistically speaking even if there was a $100 winner in there, the best I could have hoped for would been still losing $20, assuming it was the last ticket in the roll, and it was $100, but who knows, s
