  Ohio Lot O'Play continues to lose player support as the jackpot SLOWLY goes up. Will Ohio's next game be more like the one it replaced, Super Lotto Plus?

  CASH Only, my vote is yes. I think by the end of this year, Ohio will go back to lotto game.

  LOP wasn't such a bad idea. However, Ohio botched it by making the cash value exactly 50% of the annuity, instead of making it a floating percentage like in Mega Millions.

  I like LOP because it's easy to win at.

   I liked SLP because it had big jackpots, considering the odds.

   As good a game as LOP is, I do think it's time for it to end.  It is not going to last.  The jackpot it getting hit way too often.  I think that now that players know that it can be hit, they are going out and playing a bit more.
  

  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.

  LOP will never again reach $10 million like on its first jackpot run.
