Fl Lottery's Mega Money: Who misses the game?Reply
I agree! There were probably too many people winning. The same thing happened when we lived in NH. There was a game, Tri-State 5 Card Cash which had decent odds. I did fairly well...until lo and behold, a game with less friendly with odds replaced it.

Box odds questionReply
it seems to me that you understand how to figure the odds, and the underlying question is how close will the actual drawing match the mathematical odds. my answer is fairly close over time, but about useless for what will happen in the next drawing. when you see under or over performing groups it may be your definition of the groups or it may be just random being a bit random. think of this as a very rough pointer at best. you say these numbers are based on 17000 drawings. if you only use 1000 d

More tickets means more chances to win, but the odds of winning are always the same.... somewhere between slim and none.

Box odds questionReply
ScoobyDue ... yes people seem to get fixated on the overall odds which are for a straight hit, 1 in 10,0000. But when you are playing box the odds of 1 in 715 are correct. Your odds of hitting boxed, while we understand that a single boxed number has 24 combinations, in Maryland for a $1 box you get $200. Suffice it to say if you are playing two different boxed combinations 2 of 715 or .02797% is still a low chance. I have used this strategy and have hit boxed. Still have not hit

Best way to play All or Nothing?Reply
When I played this game a few years ago I would pick numbers randomly, and even use the Quick Picks that Lottery Post has. I would play a set both ways just for fun. The best I did on this game was winning $250, ($50 x 5 times). I played that way trying to win $1.25 million. I liked the game because while the odds to win a jackpot are 1 in 2.7 million (high!), the overall odds aren't too bad at 1 in 4.5 of winning something.

What does the last 2 digits mean (1:3.69)Reply
The only way I have herd of doing scratchers is you half to create a spreadsheet detailing how many prize's have been won and how many are left. Tracking this can improve your odds to the right of the decimal point. But the real key to it is to choose the best ticket with the best odds of a good prize then buy your tickets at the busiest store in your state for lottery sales. This should improve your chances of winning something in a practical way. Does anyone know if a scratcher spreadsheet is
