your chances would be better if you went to the casino and played 2 ten dollar hands at blackjack.

and if i was the clerk i would lie to you and everyone else that asks

nevermind at first i was talking about lotto not tickets tickets is kind of harder to go by i'd say.

o you mean like pick 4 or 5.

ive heard of the mixed numbers theory, where there will always be a number from 1-10 11-20 etc. and an equal number of even and odd in the pick..

i think lottery is a more safe form as odds are following

1/2.92 of winning (this includes profiting and breaking even)

1/1.52 of losing (this does not include breakeven)

how would your clerk no always that their are winners on that roll? not everyone scratches them off right in front of him

I have devolved these questions solely to try and lower down my chances to where the next 3 tickets i buy will end up with a breakeven or profit every time

thats exactly what they want you to think

they got you quick

lol i work at a gas station and people ask me stuff like this all the time. we have a guy who comes in ever day and spends 2 hours buy 100s of dollars worth and scratches then off right in front of me, he will literally go though 2 rolls of 2 dollar tickets while playing other 10s and 20s tickets. if anyone would know the pattern it would be this guy. and he has not hit big yet. so take that for what its worth. and sometimes when people buy like 4 or 5 in a row and scrath if off infront of me and they loosers i will buy the next one thinking they are winners and sometimes it will be like 10 in a row no winner. so yea.

If you are serious, Go to the lottery website, Check which scrathies are still out there with the big prizes. Then just play those cards.

For instance, Lucky 7 cards. 1 million printed. 10 big win cards of 10 million were made. Out of those ten jackpot tickets, only 1 was cashed in, So odds ( 1 in a billion) are good that you may find one of the nine left.

Now say dueces high cards, same million printed, but 9 out of the 10 big money ones were claimed. So its unlikly to find the last one.

you can increase your odds by studing it, but it all comes down to being at the right place at the right time.

I have pooled in on buying full books of scratch cards a few times, and we always lose.

Thats 2000 $2 scratch cards...

yea thing is i dont know how to play the powerball

i have been studying around in that too..

is each ticket $5 dollars, a dollar a number...

and then for a dollar on each double your cash payout depending on how many numbers matched...

so $10 dollars a ticket....

and they draw each day right....

hmmmmmm

so somehow see what is statistically more probable ..we need simulation!!! with past results implemented!!!
