Lotto Max Hysteria Continues

There was no Lotto Max $50 million jackpot winner in last week's drawing, so this Friday's June 25th Lotto Max jackpot is $50 million plus $55 Maxmillions.

That means 56 possible new millionaires!

And naturally, Lotto Max Mania continues to roll through the country.

Using the past two estimated ticket sales for this weeks projections, we expect:
  • A 25% chance of no Jackpot winner again.
  • Of the 55 Maxmillions drawings, about 13 will not have a winner, 6 will have three or more winners, 24 will have two winners, and 12 will have single winners.
  • Nearly 200 million combinations will be sold.
Considering that there are only 604,800 seconds in seven days (the time between drawings), more than 300 combinations will be randomly generated each second. And knowing that most random number generators rely on a seed time to start, there is a good possibility that many of these numbers may be duplicates.

But who cares. With so many top prizes being offered, you've got to give it a try.

If you live in or around Canada,
Play Lotto Max Now.

We're crossing our fingers for you!

Welcome

The purpose of this blog is to bring you a variety of articles focused on sharing Lottery Specific Topics that will better help you understand your chances of winning the large Mega Millions, Powerball, Lotto 649, Super 7, Euromillions, etc. jackpots.

We intend to post new articles on a Bimonthly (every 2 month) basis, but may add content more frequently. Examples of topics that we will address include: Do all combinations have an equal probability of winning?; Where does the money go?; What combinations occur most frequently and why? Should I take a lump sum payment or annuity?; and more.

Our blog is open to your comments. If you have a lottery related question that needs to be researched, please suggest it. If you know of interesting research sites that we should add, tell us. If you want to contribute an article, let us know. The only rules that we will impose are: (1) Keep it clean; and (2) Don't ask for lottery results (you can get that elsewhere). We hope you will enjoy reading our articles and participate in our growth. .... J.L.
