New member here but played off & on through the years and to be frank, well while it can't hurt to dream or want and I know you can't win if you don't play. Waste of money is what it is but it is what it is. So anyway, I use to play Texas Lotto and got pretty good and close with the numbers but never won. Right before they changed the Texas Lotto this last time. I can't remember if they ever changed before. And wouldn't you believe I had these numbers and didn't play them and I would have hit 5 numbers. Shoud've would've could've, right? Then they changed the Texas Lotto, well I had quit since then until this week. Yeah I'm a sucker, just throw away money, lol, so I bought two Mega Millions quick picks on Monday March 26 2012 at two different stores. Number on this first ticket for drawing Tuesday March 27 2012, 11 30 35 46 47 QP 41 this second ticket bought at a different store same day as the first for the same drawing, numbers 11 24 41 45 47 QP 35 Now what are the odds of hitting four of the same LOSING numers twice? And did anybody else hit numbers in a similiar fashion if not the same?

11, 30,35,46, 47 mb 41
11,24,41,45, 47 mb 35
I see that you had the 11 and 47 on both tickets.
This is not that unusual.
Also as you can see in the yellow highlighted numbers
the 35 and 41 traded spots as white ball or megaball.
This is also not a far stretch. I have bought 20 qps before for powerball
and have had the same 3 white balls on lines 1, 2 and 3. I also bought
a single ticket that I picked the megaball of 6 and got the white balls qp and it came out
2,3,4,5,17 and mega ball 6. I hope this is what you were asking about. It does seem
sometimes like the qps can be crappy , but if it were easy to hit then everyone would

I hear ya, well at least this is a place to compare #'s & picks. On another note, I bought 4 Texas Lotto qp's for the drawing today & on 2 tickets got 3 numbers right, 19, 28, 43. That's $3 bucks each at $6 bucks total. YEA!!!

Thats pretty normal for the machines. Noticed if i play my own numbers, then get QP's if repeats my numbers. I played mb 27 and 3 Qp's have 27. Did this at 3 different machines, same results.
