Why does placing a large number of bets not guarantee the big prize of a lottery?Reply
You'll still need 21,612,525 tickets at a cost of $43,225,050 And then there's the practical side of it all... If I already had $43.2 million I probably wouldn't be playing the lottery very much. But lets say I did have $43.2 million and decided to play, how long would it take me to correctly fill out 21.6 million bet slips, and who in the world would be willing to stand in front of a lottery terminal long enough to run them all? IMHO it's physically impossible for two people to do all o

How do you feel that some states are using computers to draw pick 3 &4?Reply
I've talked to quite a few players about this same subject. most do not trust a computerized system. they like a ball machine system, where they can actually see the drawings occur. whats sad is, as we like to say here at the post players can vote with thier money stop playing the pic3 and pic4 in California. play scratch offs. shut those jokers down. do this, and they will have no other choice but to purchace three brand new ball machines.

HOT LOTTO DRAWING CHEAT CHARGED WITH RIGGING MORE JACKPOTSReply
I still can't figure out ANY good reason calotto pulled video of slp drawings!!! Calotto had/made a statement (when they pulled video) on their slp page, that they were still conducting ball drops, and if you wanted to watch you could attend the ball drops in person at their Sacramento hq... Recently I searched the slp page on the calotto site for that statement, and was unable to find the statement??? Did calotto quietly switch slp to a computerized draw??? Edit: I just visited the ca

Pennsylvania: 11/1 - 11/30/2014Reply
Good Afternoon Keystone Players, All this time I thought PA had ball machines that were involved in selecting the numbers. But now, I'm not so sure. From this description, it appears that they are using a computerized Random Number Generator and then they are placed in animation. Are the ball machines then just part of the animation and are not actually real? How the PA Lottery Games Mid-day Drawing Works At approximately 1:10 p.m. daily, the PA Lottery games mid-day drawin

Live pick3 and pick DRAWINGSReply
Welcome to Lottery Post, Pottofgoold1! Most of the drawings are computerized for one reason - we allow it. We don't like it and we could stop it if we really wanted to. But we won't. And they know it.

why did more people win in the 1990's than today? Lotto.Reply
Scientistman, Yeah, more numbers make the odds to win harder. In the game you're looking at did the matrix expand? Over the years that seems to be the trend. Also, those prizes for 5 of 6 seem a little light. I'm thinking that being the case the earlier game matrix might have been considerably smaller. I was also thihnking that just maybe ball drawings vs computerized might have something to do with it, if that game went from one to the other.

Kansas man claims state's largest Powerball lottery jackpot one day after winningReply
What's bad about getting up at 4AM? I'd be stopping at Dunkin' Donuts for a coffee and doughnut and avoiding all the traffic and the annoying sun glare. But if I go that early then I'd have sun glare going home. How come people are surprised/shocked etc. when they win? Do we play expecting to lose? If I expect that then I wouldn't play. The majority of players on big drawings who don't play much otherwise, will get QP, so the majority of tickets out there are QP and thus are more often the

Pick-Quickpick QuestionReply
Thank you for following up and posting the response. It is good to have this issue settled. I think there are some people, particular lottery critics, who aren't particularly computer-savvy and believe that a central computer generates the quick picks because it either makes logical sense to them, or because it fits their notion that somehow the lottery is controlling the outcome. Taking the Quick Picks out of the equation of controlling the outcome would mean that the only other way the lott
