please explain to me how come lotto max is up to $50,000,000,00 next draw very suspicious got everyone talking ( lottery corporation ) i hear u guys are really raking in the money

100 Million in ticket sales are needed at least to fullfill the 1 in 85 Mil odds!
Crooks they are indeed when they raised the price of 649 03 or 04. SAme excuse people like bigger jackpots! Now I hear the same song with lottomax!
They should have come straightforward and tax the winnings say 15%.
What is gonna happen if no one wins the 50 Mil? They should share that among 6/7 + and 6/7 and perhaps the pathetic 5/7 ($100.00).

yes i have e-mailed the lottery about the same situation on 649 filtrate it down on the lower jackpots they won't and as far as i am concerned as long as they have a drop system it is controlled

I think the lotteries are controlled, no doubt.

When 6/49 raised the price from $1 to $2 in June 2004 they promised BIGGER JACKPOTS. The introductory $2.5 mil went to $4 mil and the jackpots grew much quicker. It used to be 2.5, 5, 10, 12, 15 (and beyond that was pretty rare before the price hike). Now it commonly reaches 13 to 16 million by the 3rd rollover. Look at this list I've provided below and you'll notice that all but one of these massive jackpots came before the price hike and promises.

What a coincidence! What a coincidence? The sales are higher than ever(more combos being played than when it was $1) but jackpots are rolling along much more frequently than they ever did at the $1 game ticket. I remember how excited the parents would get when the 6/49 hit the 15 mil level, and it(above 15million jackpots) was a rare bird back in the nineties.

It's like the switch to the $2 ticket brought on an unprecedented streak of multi-draw rollovers delivering massive jackpots...all as promised when the nation shouted "bull-s*it" at the 100% increase in price. They promised, THEY delivered.

When the final few Super7 draws had no option to select your own numbers, this is when I said "they're controlling the numbers with the damn quick picks!!" This was done in order to keep the final draw at a high point instead of having someone win it the week before and have almost no sales for a final measly draw.

Let's say they program the machines to spit out only 37% of the possible number combos in a 7/47 game, thus increasing the odds of a rollover. With digital technology this is so easy to do. It's not like anyone would ever notice, right?

Now with Lotto Max you get to pick one set of your own for $5 and two quick picks done for you...well thanks a damn lot. Low and behold, just as I predicted, the first ever Lotto Max jackpot has rolled to their "selling point" - 50million plus the extra 1 million draws. Could they have waited three winning lesser-jackpots down the line to have it happen naturally or did it happen as they had planned?

I remember when Super7 was first made available to British Columbia, I was so excited because it looked like there was commonly only one winner of a decent sized jackpot. I remember the jackpot was 8.5 million when we in BC had our first crack. Yes of course one ticket in BC won the jackpot that Friday. Great way to sell a new game to an entire province who would have known little about it at the time.

I really don't like the fact that the LIVE televised draws are long dead and we have random number generator scams for ENCORE/EXTRA.

I smell a rat and have been smelling it for some time

thanks for the reply]
at least we know what's going on i know i have been graphing 649 for years

and there is definitely patterns and as soon as you get into the patterns

they change i wrote the lottery corporation and told them they were

cheating and even sent them examples of my graph they sent me back a 2

page letter trying to tell me they weren't i said to then as long as they had

a drop system they were cheating i asked them to change where the balls

would be caught in the center of the bubble they would not do this and

also look just a few months ago they removed some key people in the lottery

corporation the only reason they done that then is the liberal government

wanted get this done before the next election they didn't want any dirty

laundry hanging out ever since the government took over it has really got

crooked
