Litigation Proofing your lottery poolReply
schmuckatelly, Here is my logic (Imay be wrong) I send copies to all for a few reasons. I could very well have made a mistake and I want that person to catch it . The title of the email reads check your names . That would mean 1 of 2 things. I lost the actual collection list and simply forgot them (remember it is maybe 1 or 2 of 4 turdheads) or they or myself are lying. Remember they are not to give me there $20 without seeing me check their name off the list. I also want them t

Interesting way to avoid being hassled ?Reply
I can't help but think of Tevye from Fiddler on the Roof reading this thread when he said, 'He's right and he's right.' Let me add my two cents worth though. I believe that most people would and should remain anonymous so that they may live their remaining days as 'normal people.' The costs of fame whether through the lottery or in the films is not normal. These people live in bubbles - what in the world is appealing about that?? People who play the lottery play to win money. At least I do. I

Interesting thing printed on DC lottery ticketReply
Has there been a recent story where a state or DC was in the midst of an ownership dispute I wonder? Maybe the sudden alert - in caps - is to save them the headache. We know a ticket is considered belonging to the person who presents it for collection but there have been disputes in the past where the bearer instrument detail wasn't cut and dry. Caps does seem urgent.

Why Do Mathematicians Consider The Lottery RandomReply
...you can't dispute the simple fact that my friend does have a 65% edge in the main pool. I thought Boney526 did a very good job of explaining how your friend could be ahead as you say, but through chance, not the system. You must mean something different than what gambler's refer to as an edge. Most state lotteries have a 50% edge over the players. Casinos have a 5.26% edge over players of roulette. Offshore lotteries have a 10% edge over you and your friend in Pick-4. Casinos are accusto

Statistically Speaking - QP's and PP'sReply
You call that proof? Give me a break. I already debunked that failed attempt by you to show that as proof, but you never addressed the issues because you probably didn't take the time to read it. You won't read it because you're afraid to hear the truth. I'm not going down that road all over again. It's futile to argue with the likes of you. You have horse blinders on and will never take them off. Now read what I posted the first time and maybe you can address the issues this article point

Praying?Reply
or, you can take the challenge that i offered up to joker (who refused to do it, as far as i can tell)...... I really don't need the googlemaster to tell me something I already know. You keep saying it is written, as If that makes it true. I've read the Bible and watched many many religious shows in the past, during a long period when I did subscribe to what the Bible wrote. Sometimes on shows like PTL, Paul Crouch would have a guest on the show that threw left curve ball questions at some

Help!! Need winning lottery adviceReply
A few years ago a similar case happened in Alabama which doesn't have a lottery. It was featured on the TV news show 60 minutes . This guy took regular trips to Florida to buy lottery tickets and regularly handed some of them out at the local coffee shop to the waitresses as tips when he had breakfast. One was a jackpot winner and the waitress who had it quit her job, cashed the ticket and didn't share the winnings with her co-workers or the guy that bought it. The guy and her co-wo

So you have the winning ticket, now what?Reply
If you google Distribution of Lottery Winnings or something similar to that (the day I was doing this I was killiing time before leaving to go to the doc's and my mind was elsewhere so it might have been some search parameter similar but not identical to the one I stated), you will come across a copy of a form for multiple winners from the Minnesota Lottery Commission indicating on that form that you can state the percentage of the winnings to which you are entitled. This form does not indicate

if you found a winning ticket that wasn't yoursReply
thats ownership of who-so ever signed it but he must have possession of the ticket to turn it in and get paid I bought a PA raffle ticket a couple of weeks ago and was given a receipt saying where I got it and to put my name, address, and phone number on the back of the raffle ticket. Most people probably don't put their names on the back of their tickets and might not notice they lost a $1 ticket, but they might remember they bought a ticket with 5 or 10 combination

can someone please tell me how to run a lottery pool?Reply
Your best chance would be quick picks Quick picks offer exactly the same chance as any other combination, but you have no chance to steer clear of types of combinations you'd rather not play. My feeling is that pools should select their own numbers and the rules should spell out what numbers will be played. When the rules include the combinations that are intended to be played there's no chance that somebody can then claim the winning ticket was purchased as their own rather than for t
