Nebraska Lottery will join Lotto America in MayReply
Lotto America is run by MSLU, the Powerball people. Supposedly, it replaced the Hot Lotto game which was destroyed by Eddie Tipton who programmed winning numbers in for relatives, friends, and eventually himself when he worked for the lottery, and was caught and sent to jail. The Lotto America game was supposed to be a ball drawn game when they started it and was drawn in private after the Powerball drawing. No actual video of such a drawing ever took place that I know of and the game seemed to

Why hasn't Lotto America been hit in ages?Reply
Any players that did play the Hot Lotto in those states are probably reluctant to play nowadays. They probably associate Lotto America still with Eddie Tipton who manipulated the Hot Lotto draws. Maybe they think that lottery can be manipulated as well. I haven't bothered to compare those lotteries odds or anything, but with there are too many choices where to spend your lottery $$$.

I don't quite understand what is happening with this game with the various add and subtract increases of late either. The amount of tickets being sold still seems to be around 600,000 - 650,000. This continues to make the odds of any ticket winning about 1 in 40 or so. Saturday's draw had 9 winners of the 4 + 1 prize between regular tickets and the Star bonus tickets. There are only 5 different possible combos of the 5 winning numbers that can be made, so some of these 9 winners had the same num

Florida LLC revealed to have claimed $1.6 billion Mega Millions lottery jackpotReply
There is nothing suspicious about winning a prize in one part of a state and claiming it in another part of the state. Waiting is also not suspicious because they wanted to make sure they had everything in order. In most states one's name has to match identically on both the ID and social security card when claiming a prize at lottery headquarters. A lot of people don't realize this until they get to headquarters and have to file paperwork for new ID's and social security cards with matching nam

Lotto America to switch to computerized drawingsReply
I was expecting this. By now MUSL probably figures the Tipton scandel has died down and everyone has forgotten all about it. Lotto America was Hot Lotto which was the 5 out of 48 game that Tipton rigged. After they shut that game down, they later revived it as Lotto America and added 4 more numbers to make it look like a new game. They also said that it was a ball drawn game in which they never showed one actual ball drawing. MUSL took over the Lucky for Life game which was a ball drawn game and

Yeah, the odds are about the same, and OK has state taxes also, TX doesn't. Before TX got PB, I used to drive up there to get tix along with Hot Lotto.

Would you play if you find out the lottery is rigged?Reply
People still played Hot Lotto after it was thought to be rigged and played the PA pick-3 after they knew a drawing was rigged. Many players won the night the PA pick-3 game was rigged and probably hoped it would be rigged again. The question of can and/or are they rigged is on another thread. Continuing to play depends on if you're in on the fix.

Again only about 570,000 tickets sold for this draw. The last winner, and the only winner I believe for this revamped version of Hot Lotto, was in April of 2020. Players are spending their money on the big games and not this one. The RNG for this one must be the same as that for Lucky for Life, because I can't seem to get more than one number right here either. Last night I played 7 WBs in a 4/4 system and only got #29. It was a 9 line wheel and I always play the multiplier option. Cost was $18
