  Delaware Multi-Win Lotto started today; the game is very similar to PA Match-6.

  i do like how you can get half of the matrix on one ticket, but for $2, $50,000 is not enough of a starting jackpot. you would think that they would figure out some way to make it proportional to the jackpot of the old lotto game, based on the ticket prices and number of plays for that price. the matrices are very similar, so we pretty much can disregard that. all in all, the ideal starting jackpot of multi-win lotto (mathematically) should be approximately $300,000 instead of a crappy $50,000.

  I've redone my website.  Go to www.dr-ew.com.  I kept a lot of the old stuff, and I've added some new stuff.  Look for more new stuff in the coming weeks.

  A new version of Mega Millions (when California joins) would offer better overall odds than the current MM, although not to the extent of Multi-Win Lotto.

  i do like the idea of CA making their prizes pari-mutuel. perhaps CA could run its own version of the game, running off of the numbers that they draw for mega millions.

  In effect CA will be, except for the jackpot.

  I suppose parimutuel prizes wouldn't work in Match-6 type games.

  in theory it could work, but i think players like fixed pizes instead.

  I seem to agree.
