How to win money in the lottery

Back on 11/4/14, I had played the Mega Millions when the jackpot was 321 Million. I had mention that because the Mega Millions has 15 bonus balls, that I would play all 15, i.e. 1-15 and have them megaplied. So, I spent $30. I was guaranteed to hit the bonus ball and win something, which I did. I hit the bonus ball of 1 + 1 number and I won $8.00. Ok, so I am in the hole $22, but I gambled and did not recover what I put in. This is the only time I have done this. I may do it again in the future if the jackpot is large like this one. It is worth a try, you never know.

Well, tonite's jackpot for the MegaMillion is a whopping 321 Million. I may try my strategy of playing 15 quickpicks on the bonus ball + megaplied. I am guaranteed to win something because I should hit the bonus ball. Hope it works. Like to hear from readers to see what they have done. Good Luck.

Just a small note. I have been playing the scratch off ticket - $100,000 Merry Money #1653. I noticed that the odds of winning are 1 in 3.33. Here lately, I have been winning on number 12 ticket. I have hit $20, $10 and $5 the last few days on multiples of 3, i.e., 9, 12, 15, etc. Mainly it has been on 12. Just a note and try it if you get any mutliples of 3 on this ticket. Can't guarantee you will win, but just going by my experience. Never hurts to try. Good Luck.

So I haven't posted in a while, just because I have been busy at work. Thought I would like to start by saying, thank you to those of you out there who take the time to read my posts. Here lately, within the last month or so, I have been buying the $10.00 ticket $200,000,000 Game No. 1644. I have had some luck with that game. I have won $30.00 twice. Hit $30.00 today in fact. Have hit $10 a couple of times as well. I don't buy it much, because of it being $10.00. I usually play the $1, $2, and $5 scratchoffs. I like the $3.00 scratch off games, but don't like the ones out currently. Again, thanks for readying and good luck.

So, here lately, I have been in a financial funk. Things just not going my way. I was down to my last few dollars. Had a $10 bill and bought something to eat, got $5.00 in change back and, just my luck, lost the $5.00. So this morning, my wife gave me $5.00 for my lunch. I had in my truck a $10.00 winning scratch off that I was holding just in case I need some money. So, I bought my lunch at a convenient store and bought 2 $2.00 and 1 $1.00 tickets, but did not win anything. I had used up my $10.00 winning on that and lunch. I still had the $5.00 that my wife gave me this morning, plus a few $1.00 bills. I went to a 7-11 and bought a drink and a $5.00 (20X The Cash) ticket and a $2.00 (Sizzlin' Cash) ticket. Won $10 on the 20x ticket and did not win on the other one. Looking at the number in the bottom right hand corner of the ticket (sizzlin' cash) it said 56. I looked at the odds of the ticket and it say 1 in 4.44 so I thought, 4 goes into 56 evenly, and I did not win, so

I hope everyone had a Happy Easter. I haven't posted anything in a while, because, I had given up playing the lottery during this Lent Season. Now that it is over, I will start playing again. One thing that helps, not playing the lottery, is that I did not spend alot of money and thus helped me save for other things. I hope to keep to a strict budge playing the lottery. I will start playing mainly the Texas Two Step as it is one of my favorite games to play. I will also play the Texas Lotto with the extra. The Power Ball is getting up there, so I may keep an eye on that one too. I may play some scratch off tickets. I haven't kept up with it these last 6 weeks or so, so I will have to look at what new games are out there and which ones are winding down. Hope to keep this post up. Good luck and thanks for reading.

Just a small posting and update. I haven't posted anything in a while but thought I would since the jackpot for the Mega Million is around $400 million. If you have read my previous post, now is a good time to try some of the techniques that I recommend. It doesn't hurt to try. Good Luck and hope to post more information soon.

Here is my update. Yesterday, 3-25-2014, I purchased one of the new $5.00 scratch off tickets named: Cash Multiplier. This game just came out on 2-10-2014 with top prize of $100,000 So far, there are still a lot of winning tickets out there. I played it yesterday and won $250.00. To-date, this is the biggest scratch off winning ticket I have had - previous was $200.00 Below is a copy of my winning ticket As you can see in the first row, my number is 42 which I must match. At the top of the numbers is a 1x, 2x and 3x respectively. My number 42 matched under the 2x and prize is $50.00 which means I doubled it and got $100.00 Second row my number is 40 which fell under the 2x with a prize of $5.00 so I won $10.00 My next winning number (on the 6th row) is 32. 32 came under the 1x with a prize of $20.00 Next winning number is on the (on the 9th row) is 43. 43 came under the 1x for $100.00 Next winning number is on the last row (10th row) 16. 16 came under the 1x for $20.00 So I

So tonites drawing in the Powerball is up to $330 million. What I am doing for this drawing is this. I looked up the most frequent numbers and used those numbers for 1 ticket and bought another ticket with all quick picks. Go to your lottery webpage, pull up the Powerball and look up number frequency. It will show you how many times each number has come out. I used the top 5 numbers and chose the top number for the bonus ball. Of course, I play with the power play. Then, I got another ticket with all quick picks. We will see how it goes. How this gives you an idea for the drawing tonite and future drawings. Good luck and don't forget to follow this post.

Was on the internet doing some research and I came across this guy (who a friend of mine had seen on 60 minutes) who states that he has won the lottery 7 times. Of course he won't disclose his secrets because he is selling a book at about $34.00 a book. But he did give some of his secrets. Of course, these are his opinions and I agree with some but not all, even though he has won 7 times and I haven't. First, set a budget. Do not use money for groceries, bills, etc. to fulfill your need to play the lottery. Second, he states when playing Mega Millions or any other lottery game, not to use quick picks - instead use the same set of numbers every time you play. He states that by using those numbers, each drawing gives you a better chance of winning. I somewhat agree on this, but I have seen people hit with quick picks a lot, so this theory is iffy. So, what I would do is play some quick picks and a set of the same numbers, that way you are covered. One thing the reporter on 6

Here is my latest post on how to win money on the lottery.  I hope the previous posts have helped you make some money. My post refers to tickets played in Texas - scratch offs. Mega Millsions and Powerball are played throughout other states so my techniques would apply to those too. Recently, I have noticed some things in the scratch off games. There have been times when a scratch off ticket launches and right away, people start winning - the top prizes. When I go online to check how many winners are left and the top prizes are mostly gone. That tells me that the lottery commission has posted a lot of winning tickets out there and that is a good time to buy them, especially if they are new games. There are other times when I see games that have been out awhile and the top prizes are still available. That tells me that there aren't very many winners out there. Case in point. I liked playing the $2 ticket I (heart) Cash. I have won some money on that ticket. It came out 12/2

So I have been posting some blogs about the lottery and how to better your chances of winning. Today, I want to share some of the amounts that I have won. Back in 1997, I had played the Cash Five game. Back then, it payed a lot more than it does today. But, I was able to hit 4 our of 5 numbers for a winning of $539.00 In 2008, I played the Mega Millions and hit 4 out of 6 numbers (no bonus) and won $600.00. For that one I had to go to the Lottery Commissiion office locally to retrieve my winnings. They had asked me to take my picture and write a short story about what I had done once I found out that I won. They gave me a shirt and a tote bag. I also received some tax forms that I had to submit that year for income tax purposes. What I did find out is that anything $599 and under, you can cash at any retailer (preferrably at a grocery store) and you will get cash. Any thing $600.00 up to $1,000,000.00 can be cashed at your local Lottery Commision office and you can get your money
