== The Jackpot Problem (Lotto) == |
|||
As in 2016, the National Lottery has decided to make the jackpot limit from 50 million to around 22 million, but in this case, isn't making this lotto pointless when it has rollover then cascaded to someone else who won the lower tier, and then it has to be all over again? for an instance that 59C6 (the probability to win the jackpot in lotto) = 45,057,474 , however you get up to 12 million times what you have bet when you won a jackpot. this case is seemingly killing their business, and this matter is decreasing the popularity of the National Lottery Lotto. do you agree? |
