I don't make resolutions. I never stick to them anyway. However, I have thought about changing my stradegy a bit some in the future. Instead of playing with a few bucks every day, I'm thinking on playing less often but with more lines....

oh hell-o, I meant "strategy" not Stradegy LMAO..better correct that in case we have any grammar police on the site!

Yikes!

Unless there is such a word, the on board spell checker would have picked that up in a second. Problem is, it doesn't catch wrong words and bad grammar.

Over the years that strategy has been debated several times and players have come down on both sides.

With an odds calculator that have the prize amounts or a lottery program that can check past results by groups and also calculate prize amount won, it can be proven mathematically that playing more lines fewer times rather than fewer lines more times can get better results.
