EXCLUSIVE: Weeks-long computerized draw error prevented many DC Lottery tickets from winning a prizeReply
YES they do! But also they see them (ball drawings) as a added EXPENSE that they can cut. In todays business world people get a bonus when they find ways to CUT costs. Marketing for lotteries seems to have been cut across the board. They just keep creating more expensive games (especially scratch offs) just putting out a press release for marketing.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply

MM went for 40 draws under the $5.00 ticket to produce a jackpot of $485.2 cash/$980 annuity. If you can do math, that's 5 months. And? How long it takes is irrelevant to the probability of happening. Given your username I'd think it should be easy enough to understand. play all ya want, no one is gonna win till the breaks the billion dollar mark Somebody could win this Friday, but it's more likely that it won't be won until they sell about another 145 million tickets.
