Numerous State Lottery holdouts
I know Kentucky Lottery does manipulate their numbers based on the numbers played. They pay out the least amount possible based on the numbers drawn The computer that generates the numbers is an algorithm and it is AI, so it learns patterns. Many people who have played the same numbers for years have noticed their numbers no longer hit, even though the numbers did hit before. It is certainly fraud, but in the new age of AI, the legislation has not caught up to the technology. They will eventuall

Oregon lottery winners can now remain anonymous
Knowing a million-dollar winner in Florida and how easy it was to locate him through searching the county Tax Appraiser's database, I'm glad to see another state acknowledge that winning a jackpot is both a blessing and a curse. The vultures started landing on my friend's doorstep in no time flat. Florida allows winners to remain anonymous for only 90 days. Just long enough to pack up and leave your friends and neighbors and start over again somewhere far, far away. A hefty price to pay for

Lawyer representing $83.5 million Lotto Texas jackpot winner warns of additional investigations
The Senate hearings are just hearings. The Texas Senate cannot block a lottery payment, unless they did so through legislation that is passed and signed into law by the governor.

The Rangers have released no information at all about their investigation, oth

Most pick 3 games payout at slightly less than 50% of the odds so even if a system predicts at 90%, it still loses money. Not saying it's impossible to have a profitable strategy but how are the going to convince a large number of people to by to collect more money than they can make by simply playing system? Jerry and Marge Selbee once use a sys
