Before the change, 6/49 was reasonable where wheeling was a risk and did allow a player a hope to keeping close to break even over time... ...now, its not big time... ...this is the consequence of the change. If a 3 hitter was $20 and a 4 hitter paid a minimum from $100 then it would be fair... ...leaving the 5 hitter where it is would be fine. 2+ is something added in which they use to try justifying the better odds... ...big deal, the prizes are
too low!
I've said this before, the more sets you play, the better chance to get something... ...the something you get now is simply
NOT worth it now
. Even the Quick Pickers are clued into this... ...its not
Rocket Science
.
You go over the
Stupid 7 and get about $150 for a 5 hitter
... ...not worth it either
.
Solution:
Ontario 49

For me, I'd pass on a job at OLGC, would not want to be fed to the wolves when customers like us attack

George, methinks we should keep an eye on the Appointments in the Business section of the dailies. Perhaps we'll see a flurry of new OLGC job appointments in the coming weeks .... I still feel as the summer wears on people will come to realize that 67 cents a line is a better deal than 2.00 a line even if 2 are QP's. We should see an upturn in S7 sales, because I don't see the rationale of 2+B warranting the increase. It's still 3 numbers to cash a prize and ONT49 will pay you 5.00 for 3#'s for 50 cents a pop. How often realistically does the average Joe hit 5 numbers? Once a year , two years. I'd wager some members of this forum have yet to cash 5 numbers. How about 4 numbers.....that's a rarity too, though maybe a little bit more frequent. Of course those of us who chart and follow trends of numbers hit with greater regularity, but to hit 5 in 649 or ONT49 is still an accomplishment. I think when people start thinking about how little bang for their 2 bucks they're getting compared to other OLGC products, sales will slow to a trickle. I still think that S7 will end up as some kind of Mega Ball or Powerball game soon because 649 is not the game or fun it used to be.... Just my opinion.........
