New York Lotto

I created a New York Lotto page for my sister-in-law in NYC. I figured I'd post the link in case someone here plays, or knows someone in NY.

It lets ya make random picks, but also sets of spectrum picks which can be played as is, or re-arranged to your liking so ya can play the entire 1-59 number field.

Hiya Teufellj, you are most welcome. I wish I could play the NY lotto, much more appealing than the CA SuperLotto Plus.

NY gives a pretty sweet deal, minimum play of TWO picks for a buck!

cheers!

NY Blotto is the WORLD'S BIGGEST RIPOFF!!

Serious lottery players do not look at the price per game. It's the PAYOUT PERCENTAGE that matters. NY Blotto pays out only 40 cents per dollar wagered, v 50% in Mega Millions.

If you think NY Blotto is a bargain because you get two games for a dollar, you probably should not buy lottery tickets.

NY lotto has way better odds tho so its a trade off. If I lived in NY I'd be playin the pick3 game anyway...at least NY kicks down $50 for matchin a front or back pair. CA lottery are misers and don't pay jack for beatin 1 in 100 odds on matchin a pair.

CA is pari-mutuel payout tho, sometimes my payouts or high, other times they are way lower than the fixed NY payouts.

Mega Millions has better OVERALL odds than NY Blotto

NY Blotto has 1:46 overall odds; minimum prize $1.
Mega Millions: 1:40 overall odds; minimum prize $2.
Powerball has 1:37 overall odds; minimum prize $3.

Don't forget that PB has the 10x Powerplay space through at least 4/28.

heyyya CASH Only, it all depends on what prize you are after, and waitin tilya think the pot is worth chasin.

take MegaMillions for example, 4+mega would payout maybe $10k at 1 in 689,064. however if I played CA Fantasy5 tonight it is $286k at 1 in 575,757.

NY Lotto jackpot is 1 in 45,057,474.00

The lower tier prizes are important too

NY Blotto players have the wrong attitude. NY Blotto players are more likely to go broke than Mega Millions and/or Powerball players.

You are far more likely to win a lower tier prize than a jackpot. NY Blotto players rarely win more than $1. Twice I've won $150 on MM (both times 4+0.) 4/6 in NY Blotto has paid as low as NINE DOLLARS!!

heyyya CASH Only, yup I'm realistic in my lottery pursuits as well. I don't expect to win the jackpot either.

take the CA lottery most recent payout summary...skimmin over the daily payouts can be sobering.

that is why I play the daily games such as Daily3 or Fantasy5, the bar is lowered, yet the payouts are great in comparison to the chump change a big game such as MegaMillions lets trickle out.
