Book Description
"The Lottery Book: The Truth Behind the Numbers" should be read by everyone who plays the state-run lotteries. Despite the fact that we players all know "the odds are a million to one" against winning those big jackpots, most of us don't know the nature of these games or the math behind them or, yes, how to most effectively play them. In this groundbreaking book, you'll learn:

-How to increase your chances of winning a jackpot that doesn't have to be shared with other players.

-How to tell when a jackpot becomes a "positive expectation" bet and what that really means

-How to keep the long arm of the government from getting its hands on significant portions of your wins

-How to figure the odds on the various lotteries and the typical scratch-off tickets

-How to find "positive expectation" scratch-off games during special promotions.

"The Lottery Book: The Truth Behind the Numbers" is a road map to state-run lotteries all over the country. It's a trip into the how and why of both jackpot lotteries and scratch-off tickets. Catlin will take you step by step through the process of analyzing the games.

You'll also meet people who have captured lottery lightning in a bottle--people who have won those "dream the impossible dream" jackpots. Some winners have gotten to live the dream to its fullest; some others saw the dream turn into a nightmare. You'll meet them all.

And did you know just how far back lotteries go in history? And how many cultures actually used them to finance wars, luxuries, and religion? You'll find those fascinating facts in this book as well.
