Massachusetts online lottery pushed to April 2026, couriers to begin selling scratch-off tickets
I think you misread the sentence. It is comparing in-store sales between states with an online option and states without an online option.

WHO is going to pay $5 for a Mega Millions ticket? They're counting on the problem gamblers who always have to be in it because, what if my numbers came up and I didn't have a ticket? Instead of selling 5 tickets to collect $10 from players they'll only need to sell 2 tickets, so they can lose 60% of players and still generate the same revenue. I'd imagine the threshold will be a lot higher but when the addicts push the jackpot high enough other people will start to play and, just as it's a

A Texas Lottery jackpot was "bought" last year, but legislators are pushing wrong solution
Well, the lotteries themselves don't agree because when this happens they always react to make sure it doesn't happen again. It erodes player interest and trust. Why would anyone with a lick of sense play a game of chance when they know that the lottery lets some of the players have a far better chance at winning? How many people would play if they knew that the advertised jackpot was probably only half as much as the ads say it is? Based on sales for PB and MM when the jackpots get really
