if a lottery official's kid won either the PB/MM jackpot. ..Reply
That is a no no. Lottery employees, vendors and their family members are generally not allowed to play, and shouldn't be allowed to collect if they win. Here is a typical example from a lottery detailing who is NOT allowed to play: Employees of the Illinois Lottery, the Lottery Control Board, officers and employees of Northstar Lottery Group, LLC and its affiliates including Scientific Games International, Inc. and GTECH Corporation; officers and employees of Northstar Lottery Group's

Illinois lottery, everything looks different.Reply
Hurley, The inability to copy paste winning numbers is major if you use that to predict numbers. Like hell if I am going to manually re-enter in every games numbers. The payout information looks no different, the old one had the combos, the payout amount, and the number of winners, where do you see more ? Are you sure the management took over Jan 1? Lots of places I see they took over July 1. Camelot on July 1 replaced Northstar Lottery Group, I see the Illlinois lottery website s

Illinois - Northstar strikes again! Lotto machines.Reply
Good question, noise-gate. Even prior to this Northstar group taking over although the capital is Springfield the lottery has always run out of Chicago (the dog barks in Chicago and wags its tail in Springfield, nothing south of that is recognized). I wonder if a private entity running a state lottery could be charged with pandering! PS, Thanks for the 5*s.

Well there goes Illinois Lucky Day Lotto...Reply
I don't think the new matrix is a good idea from the business point of view. After the initial euphoria of bigger jackpots, people will soon figure out that hardly anyone wins frequently anymore. Sales will slump just like those for the Lotto game where there is now a winner only about three times a year. The pressure on Northstar group to make more money for the state will drive Illinois Lottery to irrelevance I wish many more players were aware that they are being taken to the cleaners

Oo, this is interesting. What do you think?Reply
The rules are in other MN games, too. Although Lucky for Life is a fixed winning jackpot, there are others in MN which the jackpot is an increasing value. Northstar Cash and Gopher 5 could reach a jackpot value that would make it economically possible to cover all combinations; with a lot of time, people and effort, it might be done. There was a case in Virginia, back in 1992, where an Australian syndicate tried to cover all the winning combinations in that state's Pick 6 of 44 and won
