Audit: Stores buying Michigan lottery tickets from playersReply
Yes, the retailer's winnings were reported to the IRS via W2-G as you said. The problem is the retailer's didn't put this W2-G information on their own tax returns. It would be like a casino issuing you a form with the information you are supposed to put on your tax return, but you ignore it. Like I said, they had ongoing investigations into discounters and that's why they suspected them. It wasn't until after further digging that they discovered the issue was much more widespread than their

How many scratch should I buy at one time?Reply
scratch offs are 100% Totally Random I would disagree with that. 100% is a tough thing to support. I like scratch games because they are NOT totally random. Some people think they are, think they're the lottery equivalent of a slot machine. But nothing could be further from the truth. The wins aren't selected by a random number generator like slots or lottery draws. The wins are of a fixed amount and scheduled in a pseudo-random manner, with deliberate minimum amount in wins within pack bo

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
I guess eating my greens on New Years Day already paid out a little bit: hit $50 on a new TN $5 scratcher called wild cherry slots Literally as my wife and I were cooking last nite -- Hoppin John, Turnip greens cornbread and Garganzola Mac n cheese-- I scratched this from a machine at Krogers. Number 052. This game just started in December. I hit $5 five times and it was doubled because of the cherry. Looks like I'll be making a quick trip to Metropolis to play craps a bit soon

What's with NY Sweet Million??Reply
Occasionally I wll put ten bucks on PICK4 straight number, the odds are 1 out of 10,000 that I can win $50,000 with a $10.00 bet, I bet that beats the odds of winning $50,000 on a slot machine, and a slot player spends much more money than $10.00 trying to win the big jackpot on the slots. I didn't know that the SM winner also won a lotto jackpot, isn't that something? A long time ago I posted that my one of my neighbor's relatives won a lotto jackpot twice, once in the Bronx, and once in Mah

questions on pools & past experiencesReply
gogirl My concept of a pool is that all the tickets are pooled, and any prizes are pooled. If someone pases away, the number of ways the pool is split just reduces by one, or (assuming there was a prize) that person's family gets their share - the contract should be written up that way prior to any tickets being played. In casinos, if anyone dies on a table (it's happened) or slot machine, whatever coins or credits (slots) or chips that person had goes into their estate. I want t

Breaking Las Vegas: Could it happen to the lotto..Reply
pumpi In this case I think what was meant by 'exported' was that Virginia (or any other state with a lottery) didn't expect any overseas interest in a domestic lottery, let alone a syndicate doing what these guys did. For a while in Las vegas, when a slot machine offered a huge jackpot, people would form teams so there was always somebody from their team on that machines, no one else could get near it. That's when Vegas started posting No team play signs on certain slots. Hard to pro

Nevada LotteryReply
Yeah, this is true...and really tunnel vision on their part. Many of the river boat casinos in the Midwest and South are owned by Nevada (and Atlantic City) companies. The boats do well, the states the boats are in with lotteires do well. I don't think a lottery is any threat to the casinos - it's been mentioned in tis thread that every dollar spent on lotto isn't spent on a slot. The slots would still get their fair share, they always do....a lot of pyaers want to hit a buttoin o

Maryland Lottery to add horse race tie-inReply
As I stated in another thread previously, slots are already here in Maryland on a small scale in many small establishments. I'm wondering how slots here can save the racing industry? It would definitely save the tracks themselves, and I guess the races will take a big share of the slots revenue. I'm also wondering how many times Erlich and his croonies will put their hard earned , poorman's tax money into a slot to save the racing industry. Or better yet, how much of a take they will get
