I think about a week ago, in one of them, there was a string drawn of 35-36-37,of course,they weren't drawn in that order,but still, what are the odds that out of 5 numbers drawn, those would be 3 of them,out of 69 or 75 possibles
The odds of that happening are the same as the odds of 1-25-50 being drawn out of 5 numbers.

Slow death... I say the same thing about throwing Mardi Gras beads... what a waste of money. Just as well drive down the street at 5mph and throw $20 bills out the window.

I have heard that before,and if you consider each number individually,the odds are the same,for any number being drawn,but taken as a series,the odds are a lot greater against that happening IMO.

If you were filling out a sheet for a ticket numbers,would you feel Ok picking a consecutive string of numbers? I don't think many people would do that.

Tonight will be the 5th or 6th time I have ever bought a ticket. Hope I don't get hooked like that old dude that I was behind at the store a couple of nights ago.

He bought a pack of Marlboro Lights and some lotto tickets, he had exact change ready for like 19 bucks.

I only play when it gets over 300 million. Anything less than that isn't really worth my time.
