The only thing I ever wanted to do on it is check results. I can use the website for that. Next time anyone who has it tries to open it, be prepared for a forced upgrade... they want to check your location and continue to try and make you create an account just to check a ticket. Since it no longer does what i want it to, that will be an uninstall... pathetic. At least they did not break the old database hooks...

Forum participation itself does not change the odds; the lottery system does not know who is reading or posting. Each valid ticket has the same published chance, so buying more tickets changes your total chance only because you have more entries, not because of a strategy. For scratch-offs, I separate the printed odds from the live prize picture: the odds are set when the game is issued, while prizes claimed and remaining can change. I check the state lottery s official remaining-prizes page and... [ More ]

The Powerball jackpot increased by $26.8 million to $298 million after 15 rolls. There is an estimated 5.6% chance the Powerball jackpot will be won in the next draw whereas it is less one third at 1.7% for Mega Millions.

Powerball continues to lead in Race Two. The average Powerball jackpot is $272 million larger than the average Mega Millions jackpot. The Powerball jackpot would have to be won two times in a row for the Mega Millions jackpot to take the lead.

It's interesting that Michigan increased their limit when there are issues with retailers in FL even paying out $100 - $599.

CDanaT, Your first post above sounds like you are actually expecting a reply from Mark Cuban. Both lump sum payments and annuities have pros and cons Maybe Cuban is trying to save some jackpot winners from sudden wealth syndrome. Do some research on how many jackpot winners take the lump sum and how long before it's gone, pretty interesting. Now that the UK has Power Ball they only have one choice, the annuity.

Most states that operate online sales (e.g., Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington D.C., etc.) enforce geolocation and require in-state presence.

Possible effects include:

potentially higher average jackpots;

Average jackpots are determined by the amount that each ticket contributes to the prize and by the average number of tickets it takes to produce a winner. Neither of those has changed so the average jackpot won't change either. What may change is the frequency of jackpot winners since that's determined by the number of tickets in play and adding a new jurisdiction will presumably increase ticket sales.

I have a feeling they could be having better odds as well

If there's no tax on winnings then the effective odds are almost certainly better. Without the federal income tax or 37% on a big win the same game odds would make a foreign jackpot of $100 million comparable to a US jackpot of (about) $150 million. Similarly, a foreign jackpot with odds less than 50% worse is effectively better than a US jackpot with the same (pre-tax) jackpot.

Number frequency statistics are one of many tools used for identifying patterns in lottery output.

Patterns exist on all levels of lottery analysis: numbers, digits in numbers, wheels and even whole combinations.

One of the properties of patterns in lotteries is their duration. Majority of patterns are short-lived but there are some that last longer. These can be identified and used for playing.

This is where the number of draws used for identifying patterns comes into play.
