Ontario Lottery launches a new type of instant ticketReply
The overall odds of winning any instant prize in the game are 1 in 3.19 , while the odds of winning one of the $100,000 top prize are 1 in 20,000. It's all about the odds. Florida Lottery's $20 Triple Match scratch-off offers 1 in 2.85 of winning any prize (a little better than the Ontario game,) but odds of 1 in 888,166 of winning $100,000 , much worse than the Ontario game.

$3.9 million Colorado Lotto+ winner just wants a new vacuumReply
He won a game with a 6/40 matrix that carries 3,838,380 to 1 odds. New York used have a game with the same odds - Sweet Million. Those are the best odds you can find anywhere to win a multimillion dollar jackpot, but players in NY hated the game so it was pulled.

Connecticut Lottery launches its first $50 scratch-off ticketReply
Not necessarily. It depends on the odds of winning the prize. Having very good odds (relatively speaking) of a $50 ticket winning a $4 million prize can be a very good lottery buy. Massachusetts: $50 ticket has a $25 million top prize, odds of 1 in 10,080,000 Connecticut: $50 ticket has a $4 million top prize, odds of 1 in 1,333,333 Now, you tell me which one is the better buy. There is no right answer, but I'm interested in hearing reasoned opinions.
