I AM CERTIFIED TO SAY THAT I HAVE BOUGHT MULTIPLE BOOKS JUST TO SEE IF THERE IS A BIG WINNER SOMEWHERE.

NOPE NO BIG WINNER HERE, ALL I GET IS 40-60% OF MY MONEY BACK.

Math is too hard....

If I spend $500 on a whole book. I only get back $250. That is confirmed by many people, so expect you get 50% back.

WOW I bought a whole book like 10 times and I can't even get a big winner? SCAM

Lottery is a tax on stupid people, well the scratch offs.

Jackpot games are not a scam because it is televised. Once it is recorded it will be displayed. I do not know if the drawings are LIVe.

If it is not LIVE then lottery is a scam. They can repeatedly keep drawing until there's a combination where there is no winner.

STOP PLAYING SCRATCH OFFS AND FOCUS ON THE JACKPOT GAMES.

DO NOT PLAY QUICK PICK. CHOOSE YOUR OWN RANDOM NUMBERS OR HAVE A STRATEGY.

Risky in the Florida thread over in the Scratch Off Forum scratched a $20,000 winner. You will win back 40% - 60% of your money on scratchers. You will not win 40% - 60% of your money back on jackpot games unless you are extremely lucky.

You are posting stuff like everyone here doesn't have a clue. Most people here are seasoned veterans playing lottery games.

Did you really expect there to be a big winner in every single roll of tickets?

Sure, the government operates these games to give people MORE winnings than what they wagered... gee whiz this post is ridiculous

I'm just curious if you bought a roll from a new game or at least determined there were still plenty of good prizes available before buying your rolls? What was your criteria for making your purchase? Have you been to lotto crawler?

btw: When you don't say what state you were in at the time, it really doesn't tell us much . . .

Maybe the promise of winning money is a way to collect money not give money away!

Well said, Yogi!

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.
