  State the amount of money you spend on QPs, and the State you buy them from.

  I spend $5, and buy in California and Arizona.  My QPs consistently have ONE winning number.

  Looks like my poll question was truncated.  The second part should read:

  
  

  How many winning numbers were consistently within your QPs?

  I don't know about "straight" QP's, but I can tell you that when I Wheel certain numbers in my Wheel, and have them run my last card with two or three QP's on it, most of the numbers I had in my regular Wheel, came up in the QP numbers.

  Explain that one... Happens all the time.

  May the warm winds of heaven blow softly upon your house. May  the Great Spirit bless all who enter there. May your mocassins make happy tracks in many snows. And may the rainbow always touch your shoulder.

  If I buy 5 Qps, I'm lucky to have 2 jackpot numbers among the 25 numbers.  Based on this, I'd like to suggest that if anyone buys QPs, they post the #s here.  I'd like to try to use them to eliminate certain #s, together with my other strategy.  I base this on my experience of a great preponderance of dead QP tickets.  I've done this on a limited basis in the past, but I feel like a chuimp buying a bunch of QP tckets for a drawing knowing that most of them won't have a single number in the drawing.  Any interest?  Each could buy and post just a single ticket-no phony posts please.  That won't break anyone.

  Of course, I suggested the QP postings only if the poster uses QPs #s in their strategfy.  I wouldn't expect anyone to buy and post Qps strictly as a largess.

  i haven't noticed differences in 'prize consistency' with my-picks vs quick-picks...

  i guess that's one of the things that attracts me to the lottery...the fact that a nice match can occur (quickly and out of the blue) at any time - irregardless of past ticket performance

  ... the lottery never fails to surprise!
