Important Notice From Olg

[jillian]

During the Friday night draw a rare mechanical malfunction occurred causing the OLG to redo the PICK-3 and PICK-4 draws. As a result, we will payout on two sets of winning numbers for PICK-3 and PICK-4.

The unofficial PICK-4 winning numbers for Friday, July 25, 2008 are 1076 and 5479.
The unofficial PICK-3 winning numbers for Friday, July 25, 2008 are 610 and 303.

If you held a ticket for PICK-3, 303 or PICK-4, 5479 and discarded it, please come forward to OLG to make a special ticket claim. OLG is committed to paying out on the two sets of numbers for our customers.

So far that was the only announcement..I know they couldn't confirm my 800 number on the machine until today so I figured something was going on...I didn't realize it happened in Kansas to..If you go to the OLG site it is announced on every page of their website..

ya kansas did have a malfunction with their electronic draws for pick 3..... i think that they gave out the wrong results for 2 or 3 days.....not quite sure how long now..... oh well.

i noticed there announcement on the olg website ..... i wonder if we will get any further updates on the situations.

This is will most likely further tarnish OLG's reputation ......

What I don't understand is this..They are saying that even if you discarded a winning ticket they will still pay out the prize to the person..Where would the proof be?..Anyone can say they bought a quick pick..I mean 500 people could have bought a quick pick with that number and as long as their computers registered that many tickets who's to say that "person" really did buy a ticket..I wonder how that will work..

 

[Jimmy70]

i'm not too sure how that will work jillian!

I'm starting to wonder about the results for Lottario and Ont49 from saturday as well...... i think that this problem was more wide spread than olg is telling us!

[jillian]

I have a strong suspicion that you are right..If their computers posted the wrong results for those draws then there must be a link to the other draws..It would only make sense..I wondered about that when I remembered you had gotten 4 numbers in your pool..

 

[Jimmy70]

i think that i'm going email olg so i can understand what went wrong and why it only effected pick 3 and pick 4 ..... i'm curious what their response would be.

[jillian]

I imagine they must be receiving a lot of correspondence regarding the other draws as well..

 

[Jimmy70]

ya, i image i won't get a response any time soon....lol
