Anyone play this crap??

Anyone able to TRUTHFULLY say that he/she is ahead in the game[?]

I quit a long time ago.Never did spend much on it.

Got a guy here at work that spends AT LEAST $10 a day on scratch-offs.Every now and then,here he comes showin' off a $50 or $100 dollar winner.

It happened yesterday again,so I asked him,"Ya say ya spend at least $10 a day on scratch-offs.Have you won over $3500 in the past year?You still want me to believe that your ahead in the game?"

"I didn't think so!"

Big dummy.

    I'm ahead of the game in Keno from the Massachusetts state lottery. I won a good bit during a game in 2000 and haven't played keno since. As long as I never play it again I will always be a winner.

    Scratch tickets are another story.[:(]

    I am ahead.
    In April i bought a $2.00 Find the Fives scratch ticket and won $2.000.00.
    The highest before that was $800.00.
    I have hit $500.00 over 15 times and $100.00 over 25 times.
    Not to mention a slew of 50's,20's and $10.00 wins.
    This morning i spent $18.00 and came out with $31.00.
    Traded them in at lunch and won another $20.00.
    I have hit four numbers on the regular lottery six times.
    As a matter of fact a $200.00 win on a "Break the Bank" $2.00 scratch ticket one day before a gunshow last year helped me buy a super clean deadly accurate vent rib Remington 600 in 6mm.
    I love that little rifle.
    But i almost never play the Texas Lottery anymore because they foolishly did not listen to players and went ahead and changed the game so much that it is damn near impossible to win.
    The games have been very good to me.

    Just like people that put a hundred dollars in a slot machine to hit the twenty five dollar jackpot.. Yippie I won,, yep Uh Huh, sure did..only 1 in 14 million or so ever win the jackpot in lotto so there dang sure gotta be a lotta losers when the pot is up in the hundred million range..Course just like the gamblers around here, never met one that ever lost..[;)]
