Regarding the NEW PA game, "Mix & Match", well wouldn't you know? The PA Lottery had boldly announced in its press release: "Cash jackpots will start at $50,000, but if the top prize is not won in a drawing, the entire amount will roll over to the next drawing’s jackpot."
Guess what MONDAY's Jackpot is? A WHOPPING $60,000!
Yes, you read that correctly: because nobody won tonight, the Jackpot increased by a WHOPPING $10,000!
Is this a joke? All this for a TWO DOLLAR ticket?
The game it replaced [Lucky For Life] gave you $3,000. a month for life (20 years). And the steady, popular, classic PA Cash 5 is won most nights whose jackpot is $100,000 and increases by another $100,000 when the previous night's jackpot is not won.
This new M&M which is really "FLIP & SWITCH: soak a player for TWO dollars, offer him/her an inferior prize and inferior prize tier, and make him feel he can win while throwing him a meager $10k increase in jackpot for his efforts and hard earned money. Clearly, the PA Lottery execs have found a way to unjustly enrich themselves while throwing a mere pittance to players.
As you know, Flip & Switch (pa's mix & match) is the game a few [1-2?] posters here greatly advocated.
Where are they now when mathematically and jackpot wise, M&M/F&S is lose for life!
