lol i gave 2013 a total break, just spent my 1st few bucks for 2014, so ill endeavor to keep a running record again this year. basically i kept too much info and it got tedious. ill just keep 2 columns, expenses, and wins for each month. and ill put keno separate from lotto.

Personally, I'd rather not know!:eek: :bawl:

But good on ya for keeping such good records. Good idea to keep separate accounting for Keno as you have scored some nice wins there.

Good luck for 2014!

oh, I was at store and saw an old game that never interested me in playing, its six numbers 0-9 , like a pick 3 but a pick 6.

to win A PRIZE you need numbers in order, 1st 2 or last 2 wins $6.66
1st 3 or last 3 wins $66.66c etc

hence the name super 66.

https://tatts.com/salotteries/games/super-66

anyhow the top prize is 1 in a million odds, and the prize that jackotted started off at something like $66k .

well last week i saw in the stor the top prize was $1 mill!!!

so $1 game, 1 in 1 mill odds, and win a $ million !!!

later i realise its a promotional jackpot so will at some stage stop paying this amount. but till then this is my go to game. blowing all other lotto's out the water in terms of ROI

Im going t cut down on some lotto's and play a few bucks ea week on this thing.

Wow! Here in Canada I play a 6/49 game with a Jackpot that is fixed at $1 Million with tickets being $0.50 each -- so your game gives you 13.9/2=6.95 times as many chances to win the $Million. That's rather "generous" of the lottery commission.

Good luck with those tickets!

I don't know why, but this website isn't letting me post when I try to break down what I spent my money on, like I did on the first page of this thread. So, I spent $5631.50 in 2012 and $4139.50 in 2013.

Actually, I went to Vegas this year and lost 2k, but I'm not sure if that should count. At least I didn't give it to OLG. =p

all the Australian games
https://tatts.com/salotteries

i think they show up there, im playing min entry in most draws, but the hard to win games i leave along til the pot has jack potted to a more acceptable prize.

this online site lets me buy but they make you play more games than the stores do, so i just go to the stores.
BTW if you aint in america i think the site lets you play aussie games. its the official company that now runs our state lotto's

odds run form 1 in 2.2M for the pools, to 1 in 76 mill for powerball. most are 1 in 8 mill

hiya savagegoose, some tough games...likewise I'd wait for jackpots to rollover a bit, but mostly because I always have the tax-hit in mind.

yeah we are still in the stoneage in the USA...no online lottery or gambling allowed *LMAO* I know people in 3rd world countries who can play their lottery online or via text even.

oh and bible-belt states still do not even sell lottery tickets on Sundays.

goodluck!

oh its been a while between posts. the company tatts have taken over the state lotto here for the next 20 years. and now have an online site; not sure if i mentioned that else where. but a new ofeature now that they also have installed new machines in all the stores, and made the online go active via advertizing. is An auto play feature.

yup auto play is exactly what it sounds like, you set up regular numbers, and feed in your credi card number and it will play the games you select for ever, for a set period, or only for games when the jackpot reaches a set amount!

you can also bank transfer money to the account there, and not have to use a credit card. I have a debit card and need to giver their machine that, as it seems to want some account to bill, even tho i intend to always kep the account funded.
i have it all set up for my 2 syndicates, and even extra draws for when the games jackpot to over $30M all in all, my hobby has been destroyed.
