  Don't kid yourself people spend a ton and never tell you that who ever said it's card board Crack is correct spend alot to get maybe half back alot I mean as several hundred per week maybe make 1/3 what ya spend per year .all but them who stumble upon a 5 or 10 k ticket and odds are great .

  You have to spend alot to win alot but if you can get payout info on rolls from a clerk you can spend your money wisely. Of course it is a letdown when the big winner in the roll is a $50 but that's the risk.  I'm up a good amount this year and this is my first full year playing scratch offs, it is alot of work though.

  It's a real crapshoot. I've gotten a $1,000 winner off of just buying one $10 ticket; other times, I've bought six, seven consecutive $20 tickets without so much as a break-even win. Ultimately, it's the preference of each individual player on how much to spend, which games to play, etc.
