Fast Play / Instant Match Games
Hi Everyone, This is my first post ever made on Lottery Post and wanted to make the first one a subject of something that is relatively new for lotteries in numerous states across the country. They are the instant printout tickets that are a hybrid of the instant ticket and numbers/jackpot computer terminal based game. On February 28 of this year, my home state of Pennsylvania debuted Fast Play . The cash strapped state was too lazy to come up with a different name for this game and rippe

How you know a friendship is real share a lottery jackpot By Kate Northrop A North Carolina man's word is as good as gold after he kept a promise to split a lottery jackpot without necessarily splitting the ticket cost. Scott Edwards of Julian and Perry Charles of Lexington have a 35-year-old friendship worth bragging about after one of them won a $361,527 Fast Play jackpot in the North Carolina Lottery and voluntarily shared it with the other. A long time ago, Edwards and Char

[UPDATE] D.C. woman who tried to redeem faulty ticket admitted to forging second 'winner'Reply
With all the fancy technology these days, one would assume the length setting is automatic. But even if the length setting is correct, the alignment can still be a problem, as the article points out (and have personally observed, though is extremely rare to see at the self-service dispensers I regularly visit)... However, there's a simple old-school tech solution, which was utilized in PA, and likely other lotteries too, decades ago - a series of black bars pre-printed on the ticket to deline

Vt. Lottery computer glitch creates extra winnersReply
No disrespect Todd and I do count you as a credible source of information, but I will believe otherwise when the information is common knowledge and is published in each state. I do not understand how you can know this if the information is proprietary and protected as such. Floyd sez: As for rereading the article, if you try that yourself you may notice that there's nothing that says thee tickets for this pareticualr (SP) game were QP's or that they're generated by the local termina

Maryland player almost threw out $50,000 winning lottery ticketNews Story
It pays to double check your tickets By Kate Northrop It's a good idea to double-check lottery tickets before tossing them. Nearly throwing out a winning lottery ticket almost cost a Maryland man a $50,000 prize. A landscaper just so happened to come into a lot of green when he hit a $50,000 prize with a Fast Play Lucky Numbers lottery ticket, but he did not realize it at first. When the anonymous player mistook it for a loser, the winning ticket just barely escaped being thrown in the

How is this Possible? Something is WRONG with Illinois Lottery Info Fast Play Result
How is this Possible? Something is WRONG with Illinois Lottery Info Fast Play Result It is a progressive game and it takes time to build up prize amount. It is next to impossible that the prize amount built up to the same exact amount to the penny the same day, hours apart, when the first one took weeks. The same exact winning amount is listed twice for the fast play game Illinois Super Jackpot. Same day, different time stamps. Can not possibly be accurate. ma

Pennsylvania: 9/1 - 9/30/2022Reply
If you go to the PA lottery website, there's a More tab all the way to the right. If you select About Us News from the More tab, you can get to a profit report. In glancing through that report, total sales on Fast Play for previous year was $149 million. Overall, they are returning a 20% payout margin, so going from that Fast Play brings them roughly $120 million a year. They keep around 80 cents on every dollar the players spend. In June 2024, they are mandated to roll the payout percentage
