Commentaries on reptilian brain chances are' gambling in lotteries
If it takes 10 seconds to fill out a Powerball [or] Mega Millions ticket, and you spent 12 hours a day filling out two-dollar tickets, every day of the year, it would take 90 years and nearly $300 million to have a 50% chance of winning the jackpot. Another example: If you bought one ticket every day of the year, it would take you 400,000 years to have a 50% chance of winning, Williams says, adding one more example to put things in perspective: The Powerball [or] Mega Millions lottery is si

Virginia man bags $120,000 in Pick 4 with 8-8-8-8 combinationNews Story
A six-figure prize in one drawing By Kate Northrop A Virginia man was lucky 24 times in one drawing, with his Pick 4 number combination pulling off a $120,000 win. It's common for the payout to be larger in Pick 4 drawings that yield number combinations with the same four numbers, but one Virginia man managed to rake in $120,000 all for himself. Dennis Fears won the top prize in the Virginia Lottery's Pick 4 night drawing on August 25 24 times. Every single ticket held the same f

Why do you want to win the lottery?
I had quite a reflective day and I pondered the question; Why do I want to win the lottery? What's my motivation for playing and subsequently winning the lottery? Is it an opportunity for me to get even with friends, family and relatives who have not been good to me? Is it time for them to know who is The Boss? I have come across comments on different forums where someone says Once I win the jackpot, so and so can go to hell, they will never see a penny from me But the

Mega Millions Just The JackpotReply
Answered by Google. Bard The expected value of a lottery ticket is the average of the possible prizes, weighted by their probability. For a regular Mega Millions ticket, the expected value is about $0.63. This means that, on average, for every $2 you spend on a ticket, you will expect to win about $0.63. The expected value of a JTJ ticket is about $1.26. This means that, on average, for every $3 you spend on a ticket, you will expect to win about $1.26. So, the JTJ ticket offers a

$910 MILLION: Mega Millions lottery jackpot making another historic runReply
FUN STORY: WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS. So I play the lottery but my spouse does not know that I do. Not that there is anything to hide, but I am pretty certain that they would think it's a waste of time. Also the plan is if I win big it's going to be a great surprise for them. Note that I have a budget set aside for that - I don't smoke, don't drink, don't buy coffee - so that is my wasteful spending line if you may. So every time we are on a road trip, I love to buy tickets along the w

Chances of 1,2 or three winners in PowerballReply
It's relatively simple. The probabilities follow the Binomial Distribution if you assume the numbers for every ticket are chosen independently and randomly. (That is the case for a Quick Pick .) The probability of an individual random ticket winning Mega Millions is 1 in 302575350, for example. Powerball is slightly higher probability. Let's call that probability (1 in 302575350) p . P (capital letter) is the probability of x winners, where x = 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., N, where N is the number of ti

Mega Millions Just The Jackpot
In my state the lottery commission offers an alternative to the regular $2 Mega Millions ticket. It's called Just The Jackpot . (I'll call it JTJ for short.) You get two tickets for $3, but you can only win the jackpot. Lower tier prizes are eliminated. Two interesting questions arise: (1) At what Expected Value of the Jackpot does the JTJ offer a better expected value of return per unit bet compared to a $2 regular ticket, and (2) At what Expected Values of the Jackpot do a regular $2 ticket an
