Lotto Jackpot QuestionsReply
Prior to living Florida I was a resident of The State of New York. It was quite a few years ago (but I dont think it was more than 10 years ago) that The NY Lottery offered an online game called Sweet Million . It was a 6/40 game with 3,838,383 to 1 odds to win one million dollars provided you matched all six numbers that were drawn. It's hard to find an online game with odds that low to win a million dollars. Players absolutely hated the game. It had lousy lower tier prizes... the seco

Florida Fantasy-5 PlayersReply
Today when I bought my JPT tickets I looked at the back of the play slip to see what the odds are of winning a jackpot. For some reason I was thinking they were approximately 9 million to 1. Not so! Because you get three lines on each ticket, the odds are approximately 3 million to 1. That's not too bad odds to win 2 million. I'll still wait for the jackpot to get to at least 1 million before I play, but if I have to play a game that draws six numbers, I'll take JPT every time. G5

Improved odds of a 5W Powerball win, or coincidence?
I've discovered a relationship in the Powerball draws which improves the odds of a 5 white ball hit by a factor of 35.7. 69 choose 5 = 11,238,513, so the odds of a 5W hit are 1 in 11,238,513, assuming the balls are equally likely to be picked. The relationship in past draws reduces the odds to 1 in 314,432 Still a long shot, but much improved. Standard statistical analysis will not sift out this 5W signal. I discovered it with exhaustive search. Could this relationship just b

hello powerball reduction of 11,238,513 to 47,905Reply
The only thing We achieve is just tackle a smaller set first but at the end, when We expand to 5 positions, We would still be facing the same odds. Also playing pick 3 as pick 3 000 to 999 with odds per position as math averages, etc. won't be same for the middle 3 powerball or megamillions numbers. Odds of 0 to 9 as last digits and odds of 0 to 6 are entirely different. I left 7 in MM as only 70 will be there and that goes only under position 5. Even the 0-9 will have varying c

Interesting, you want to have a contest? You put out 100 numbers, so naturally you have a cut the odds to 1/10 chance of hitting a box combo every draw. You have added in using the most drawn sums, helping your odds a little bit more. Start over May 1st? Your hundred numbers versus my 100 numbers? One month of draws until May 31st. You in?
