  Lengthy but interesting article. If nothing else scroll down to the chart with the different states and tax rates. 

  Except for Montana they all should have copied Nevada.

  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.
