Hit a $2 scratch off for $40 last night :thumbsup: Most I ever hit was $200 on a scratcher and $100 on a power ball. I am pretty sure I will never get back what I have spent on them but you never know...
but I probably don't spend more then $10 a week on all of them combined.

I play every day cause the states profits go to the edumacation of our school system (NOT) just to keep the lefty's happy and the students stu pppid anyway it's just the cost of entertainment sometimes I win and sometimes I just feel I'm helping the goofs in Government BLOW my money.

In reality every state was to earmark the funds towards education, sad fact is the money never seems to get there :dontknow:

Yeah the lottery is supposed to be for education, road improvements, lowering tax rates, etc. But I know one thing I found out;

Schools have no money, roads don't get improved, taxes are still going up, etc. So that leaves me to think SOMEONE IS POCKETING SOME LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY and it isn't where it is supposed to be going!!! :angry4: :angry5: :angry4: :angry5: :angry4: :angry5:

I play pick 3 and 4 twice a day midday and evening drawing here in illinois..... been charting numbers since the early 80"s..... i have several pick 3 numbers that get me $$$$$$$$$$$ every week..... i have a kitty i use only for lottery purposes and i have yet to lose any money in the last 15 yrs.. all my winnings go in the kitty.... i purposely will not play a couple days out of the week if i feel my numbers are getting cold.... i have a system i use and as long as i do not stray from it i win each and everytime i play... i would never waste a doller playing the big money games like mega millions or powerball its a waste of my money.. when i can take that doller and play it twice in pick 3 or 4 and win something.... my odds of winning in the small games are so much better than something like the big game or powerball where your odds of winning are like 1 in 165 million..... thats asinine..... i don't know about anyone else but me personally i do not like throwing money away... and these big lottery games are a joke.... with pick 3 and 4 i am a winner every week, sure there will be days i do not win but in the long run my winnings are always keeping me ahead of the game... if you knew what i had in my kitty right now you would agree... and all the money thats in my kitty is winnings from the pick 3 and 4 i would never play another game when the odds are in my favor with these games... just like the casino, when i go and play cards i play one game and one game only, and thats blackjack, any casino will tell you clearly the player always has the upper hand when it comes to blackjack, but you have to know how to play as well..... and that i can do as well.... there is no other card game (oddswise) that favors the player like blackjack..... :headbang:

:'( I play Mega & Powerball twice a week each. The most I ever won was in Mi. $450 on Cash 5! :icon_thumleft: This reminds me of a funny Prank my Ex-Boss pulled. On Sunday mornings, He & 4-5 Buddies would go out for Breakfast, Read the Paper, & just BS !!
He stopped by the Store, Checked the Winning Numbers, then bought a Ticket with the Same Numbers, only for the Next Drawing!!!So, there they were sitting in a Booth reading the Paper, when my Boss pulled out this Ticket & say's " I'm going to check my Numbers"! He looks and then Yells, " I Won"! His buddy grabbed the Ticket and Double Checked it. "He Hit" the guy screams!! My Boss figured nobody would look at the Date! He said he waited awhile to tell the Truth, cause they were all telling him what color Cars they all wanted!! Funny Story? I always wanted to pull it , but I can't keep a straight face. Joe

Bought a scratch off ticket for $2 in Texas back in 93 and won $25. That was pretty much the end of it. They brought it in to Oklahoma and funding education was mentioned, which was probably better than sayin it was goin to fund way more better quality massage parlors for the legislators to frequent. I'm in Colorado now where they have it, but I don't play it. If you play, and you win big time, and all that money makes you happy, I'm pretty tickled for you. I'm gonna help y'all out. I had a dream where I saw the winnin numbers, and here they are: "0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9" It's like a KGC code, in that they have to be arranged in a certain order and combination, according to the template. I guarantee you these numbers will appear in the next drawing. You're welcome.
