Mega Millions Winner
Mega Millions is a multi state lottery that is wildly popular among lottery players. In 2010 an agreement was reached between the Mega Millions consortium and the Multi-State Lottery Association that allowed the cross sales of Mega Millions and Powerball in most states with lotteries. Currently 38 lotteries are selling lottery tickets for both mega jackpot games. This agreement gave players the opportunity to play one or both mega jackpot lotteries. Obviously becoming a Mega Millions winner requires the purchase of one or more mega Millions lottery tickets. To be a Mega Millions winner the player must be 18 years old and the exceptions are; Nebraska (19) and Arizona and Iowa (21).
Since Mega Millions is a pure game of chance anyone can become a Mega Millions winner. Most large mega Millions jackpots have been won by players who used the random number generator available at lottery retailers to pick their winning Mega Millions numbers. The quick pick is the best option towards becoming a Mega Millions winner. The numbers will be random and players who play birthdays and specific number series are limited in their choices. Experts say that the quick pick potion increases the chances of becoming a Mega Millions winner by 10-15%. The only real way to increase the chances of becoming a Mega Millions winner is the purchase of multiple Mega Millions tickets. Of course the more often Mega Millions is played the more chances of becoming a Mega millions winner. Ohio offers Mega Millions players an add on game called ‘The Kicker.’ Players pay an extra dollar per ticket and a series of numbers from 1 to 9 are printed on the bottom if the Mega Millions ticket. A kicker ticket that matches all six numbers in exact order wins $100,000. Unfortunately this option is only available in Ohio.
Different players use a wide variety of strategies to increase the chances of becoming the next Mega Millions winner. Many players spend a certain amount on Mega Millions tickets per week and may spread out ticket purchases or may purchase several tickets for the same drawing. Some lottery gurus say that when a jackpot gets to a large amount the player should spend his or her entire weekly lottery budget on the drawing. As an example; if the odds are 1 in 10 million and the player purchases $10 worth of lottery tickets, the odds change to 1 in 1 million. Playing Mega Millions is fun and exciting and who knows? You could be the next big Mega Millions winner.
Women Conquer Online Casinos
According to experts, the traditional gamblers profile has significantly changed, with almost 60% female players.
According to a recent survey of online casino players which announced its results this week, there are a growing number of women who are becoming keen fans of online casino games.
The survey was conducted by Red Lounge Casino, one of the UKs most popular online casinos, and suggests that middle-aged housewives will soon account for a sizeable chunk of total online casino fans. The key finding is that that 57% of clients registered at various online casinos are female. 61% of the female clientele are married, 68% are housewives, and 54% are aged between 35 and 54.
The casino management highlighted several reasons for the survey findings. First, most housewives are eager to find new amusement for the time when they are alone at home, and online casinos have managed to fill this niche. The second factor that has contributed to the popularity of online gambling is easy access to the Internet. The third womens likeness for online games while most of them would hate going to smoky and crowded land-based casinos, they enjoy the fun of playing an interesting game from the comfort of their homes.
The trend is interesting, but far from surprising, online casino experts claim. Over the last few years, the demographic shift in the UK has been so acute that some sites are now reporting that 70% of their players are females who usually prefer to play Roulette and Poker. According to a survey conducted in 2004, £270 million is staked by women every year. Given the rapid development of this booming industry, the figures may as well have doubled in 2007.
Another group which is becoming increasingly attracted to online gambling is young adults. With their natural likeness for web-based activities and willingness to try new things, young adults are some of the keenest fans of online casino games. It is now obvious that the traditional image of men as the typical casino players was overturned as casinos went online.
