Lottery Payout

I see you support BOVADA but also make good mention in one of the blogs of 5Dimes online site. This site also lets you bet on lottery numbers, the pick 3 and pick 4.

The advantage of this site is that their payout is almost double from the state lotteries. So instead of a 200.00 payout for a pick 4 number they pay 375.00 and instead of a 5,000.00 payout for a straight pick 4, they pay 9,000.00.

The fact that one gets paid almost double, does that give an edge to any lottery system or it does not matter?

Do they also change the numbers that are included in the draw? Are there more numbers in the pool to offset the higher payouts? 1-75 instead of 1-40, etc.

The guy who runs 5 Dimes is very smart so I'm sure retains a thin advantage. Still, if you must bet the lottery, I'd rather get the premium payouts at 5 Dimes.

This person never even checked back to see if his question was answered.

Those 5Dimes employees are very busy.

I was out of town and just returned. They use the same numbers drawn by each state.
