During this one hour 1x per week live internet television show what would you want to see as content?

Hello! all I am thinking up and writing a lotto show and I request all the help I can get from you professionals! I just need creative input on such a show!

And last if there was? would you watch it each week?

Thanks Irisheyes

What games are played.

(Whether it's the show host or people being interviewed perhaps, or have e-mailed in or otherwise made contact, goes for all comments here).

Method of number selection, and why.

"Level" of play, i.e., how much is spent on games. For example, spending $46 on Mega Millions to play every Mega number so to guarantedd a "winner" isn't exactly "advanced" play.

Biggest win to date.

Things covered in the forums here- mathematics and mystical for instance.

Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners.

There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.

Several state lotteries have 1/2 hour TV game where players are chosen from entry ticket. The shows usually have prelimenary round that build to the excitement of someone winning lots of money. I suppose people watch for that reason or to see if their name will be drawn to appear on a future show if they sent in an entry ticket. The shows have the live lottery drawnings at the end and player watch it it for the results.

It's possible to tie in a show with tips and strategies for the state's online lottery games, but I doubt a full hour show once a week would continue to draw viewers. The bottom line in television is viewer interest.

Good luck on creating a show.

Thought of something else - how about a segment on what does not work.

Kind of a "lotto urban legends" or myths, if you will.

Here's one - several lotto "gurus" have said a pick 3 total should be 15. In Illinois, for one, I know for a fact that this is just not the case.

This could be things that, no matter how good or tempting they sound, just don't produce winners.

(Likea lotto version of the sports betting theory about betting against California NFL teams on the road in the snow. It just didn't work).

How can you tell if someone is an expert on strategies for winning any lottery game if they haven't won a lottery jackpot themselves? Just winning a lottery jackpot even once could be attributed more to luck than knowledge. There are plenty of strategies and self-claimed lottery experts out there doing a lot of talking and winning nothing.

That is brilliant..........expose the real losers......sd s joke segment....not telling these guru's first, put them on the hot seat!!

and at the same time start to hunt down real winners and they share there experience of winning and how it happened?

Anyone know a Booking Agent to hunt down those winners or does the state lotto maybe they could help?

Keep the juices flowing people - we have to create magic in a bottle to keep peoples attention!!

Thanks

Well the first forty or so weeks you could go to each states lottery office and talk about it and go inside and interview The lottery commisioner of each state and ask what is new and what directions the games are going in.
