Your right about that and most of the big lotteries are multi state jackpots .

One of the best bumper stickers that I've ever seen said, "The Lottery is for people who failed math." Just to illustrate the point, I told my receptionist last week to pick 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. She said, "that would be a waste of money, it would never come up like that." I told here that the odds were just a good as any other combination, and I think she grasped my point, but an awful lot of people don't understand how bad the odds really are.
