Keno

Have you ever visited a corner store and witnessed a unique flood of people there, many in and out of their cars, some just sitting mesmerized in a trancelike state, and wondered, ‘what on earth goes on here '? What you have just witnessed is the result of a new release of an Instant Win Scratch Ticket from the Massachusetts State Lottery massachusetts state lottery keno. I'm sure it comes as no real surprise for your requirements that it's about entertainment and money. There really is only one thing capable of generating that kind of excitement at corner stores and ‘quick stop gas stations'throughout the state so, there's also no wondering why the state holds a ‘legalized monopoly'on the industry.
You could however, have wondered, ‘just how do all those people know whenever a new instant win game is released '? The clear answer is, they watch for new release announcements on the New Lottery Instant Game Tickets page of the Massachusetts State Lottery Official Web Site. This way they're always apprised of new opportunities hitting the jackpot.
Are you aware that sudden furor of it all, it may be explained simply with what's well know throughout the ‘scratching community ', in an effort to gain popularity for a casino game, each new instant games release is saturated with winning tickets.
So, now per week as gone by and the crowds have dissipated at the ‘scratching posts'and you a have some former presidents burning a gap in you pocket. In short supply of a cool shower, you select what to do, buy yourself some instant win lottery tickets! Now comes the dilemma, which games tickets to purchase? Before extinguishing those fiery historical figures, refer to the Instant Prizes Claims page of the Massachusetts State Lottery Official Web Site. Additionally you may want to test the Instant Prizes Under 1,000,000 page.
What you are seeking is the claimed vs. total columns on the proper side on both of the listing pages. By scanning those two columns it is simple to see how many prizes are generally available and claimed. Now at this point it becomes perfectly obvious that you simply want to purchase tickets for games which have more unclaimed prizes than claimed prizes. In the end, why discard your wages on a 46 claimed prizes out of 50 available prizes game ticket when you are able purchase a 28 vs. 66 or 18 vs. 80 and have something on the order of 30 to 60 more chances of winning the grand prize amount! Granted though, dozens of winners will not take circulation at the time of your purchase.
This begs the question of how much cash to spend on your own instant win ticket purchase. Most “professional ‘scratchers'” remark, you have to spend at least $100 on a single game previously to own any real chance of winning a jackpot, claiming, you really need several full fresh sheets of tickets in order to better your chances of your scratching revealing that jackpot. However prudence dictates you are able to only buy as many scratch tickets as your budget will allow. So, if spending $100 simply isn't in your budget today, perhaps as time passes, putting some cash aside for a ‘new instant win release treat day'will be an acceptable way to both play by the ‘rules'and, allow it to be relatively ‘affordable'to complete so.
Cash WinFall
A ‘one wheel'game, Cash WinFall, being the Massachusetts State Lotteries newest game, has an interesting twist on its jackpot. The amount of money is rolled down seriously to lesser winners! If no grand prize has been won before the jackpot pool reaches $2 Million, that $2,000,000.00 or maybe more then gets dissipated through to all or any lower level wins of the draw. Meaning, if the jackpot is $2 Million or maybe more, and there is no jackpot winner, that $2 Million goes to all or any the prize winners because drawing. Pretty neat! Now it's quite obvious when to play Cash WinFall!
Mega Millions
A two wheel game, Mega Millions is the Massachusetts version of the highly popular multi state game PowerBall. Being a 2 wheel game, the odds are quite high against picking all 6 winning numbers. In fact they're a great deal greater than PowerBall odds. You might naturally assume because the chances are higher, there will be less frequent winners with higher jackpots. That only isn't the case. PowerBall has jackpot winners, normally over the past year, approximately once every 6 weeks (8 winners) with 9 figure jackpots numbering 4. While Mega Millions has jackpot winners, normally over the past year, approximately once every 4 weeks (14 winners) with 9 figure jackpots also numbering 4. One can reasonably assert that those figures are a result of the participating states population and economic demographics.
So just how do all those people win? The Official Web Site of Mega Millions states quite clearly on its Winning Picks page that ‘Lottery games such as Mega Millions are random and it's impossible for everyone or any lottery analysis software to predict just what would be the next drawn balls. However, patterns can be observed from the balls which are randomly drawn for different periods of time'. However, you are able to obviously have a better chance of winning via a lottery related type of . For more information on Statistical Analysis and how it pertains to the Massachusetts State Lottery. So, when in case you play this game? You must really only play Mega Millions about the 4th week after each and every jackpot winner!
The Numbers Game
A 4 wheel game and the oldest of the Massachusetts State Lottery Games, The Numbers Game has been around operation since 1975. A lot more than 10,000 drawings have made players the happy winners of tens, hundreds and, tens and thousands of dollars every day. Number odds being quite reasonable, one would assume winning this game to be relatively easy. Nothing might be farther from the truth. The truth is, how you are forced to play this game aids in stacking the odds much farther against you than you could think. With it's all 4 any 4, first 3 last 3 any or exact, 2 digit combinations, .25c, .50c, $1, $2, and $5 play options, coupled with payouts less than $10,000, playing this game is a real challenge, as too is it's worthiness of being played. What the designers of this old lottery game seem to own overlooked is,it's not how to play but that which you win, something the newer games embrace fully. However, The Numbers Game comes with its merits. You will find a lot of people available who only wish to bet .25c or .50c and, not even Keno offers that option. What this game really needs is a simple ‘any 3'option including a ‘$5 only'bet and a maximum $500 payout. That alone could catapult the popularity of The Numbers Game to stratospheric levels. So what's the simplest way to play this game? .25c and 50c bets only, any combinations you want. The layman perspective is, pick 4 out of 40 on The Numbers Game and maybe win $10,000. Pick 5 out of 35 on MassCash and definitely win $100,000, spending $1 or maybe more must be saved for MassCash.
MassCash
An older ‘one wheel'game that, since its inception in 1991, has paid its $100,000 jackpot to significantly more than 2500 winners! With its reasonable odds and reasonable payouts it's easy to understand why this older game remains popular. With jackpot winners nearly every drawing, and multiple winner too, you can enjoy this game whenever it's drawn!
MegaBucks
An older ‘one wheel'game that, since its inception in 1982, has paid significantly more than 1700 winners varying prize amounts totaling about $2.5 Billion. A reasonably tough game to win, jackpot winners are, normally, paid out every 10 -12 drawings. So, naturally you simply play this game every 10 – 12 draws after having a jackpot winner.
Keno
A ‘newer one wheel'computer driven game and a masterpiece of modern gambling Keno, is designed for people who have plenty of time on the hands. In the end, where else can you've to be able to win $1 Million every 5 minutes 21 hours a day, 6 days per week, and 13 hours on Sunday! When in case you play this game? Whenever you've had sufficient to drink to believe you can actually pick 12 of the 20 numbers drawn from a pool of 80. Seriously, Keno is a very fun game and, when played correctly, can cause hours of enjoyment for little to no money spent. In fact people have been recognized to play forever and leave no poorer than if they started! How is that? Keno lets you win if you do not pick the winning numbers! Amazing! Well, maybe not absolutely all that amazing as Lottery Officials have obviously determined that it's harder not to pick the winners than to select 1, 2 ,3 or 4 winners when playing a 12, 11 or 10 spot game as you do not win anything for picking less than 5 winning numbers. But, if you are the unluckiest person around you could win forever long! So how will you play this game? The odds are just as good winning a prize on the 7 spot wager since the 1 spot wager so play the 7 spot though the best over-all chances are on the 2 spot wager. Simply arrive, pick you numbers, buy however many games your visit will cover and, cash out whenever you leave.

There's a tl;dr near the bottom if you don't want to read the entirety
Alright here comes a really long one. One of you fast bois asked for something to read and y'all are gonna get it. 🤗
When i was new to methamphetamine and had never experienced psychosis I had a bit of binge maybe 2 or 3 days no sleep. I stayed high all through the night and day and I worked night time hours at a hotel bar. I was a bar back and responsible for prepping ingredients and keeping the coolers stocked. I'm a bit of a klutz and meth typically makes this worse for me especially when I'm on very little sleep and due to this I was known for catching knuckles on the edges of the coolers or cutting myself during prep resulting in my hands (more often than not) covered in cuts/scratches/busted knuckles. During this particular 2-3 day stint I started to notice, what I now know is, meth bugs because I was obsessively concious of the cuts on my hands. BUT being new to meth I kind of assumed meth bugs were for crazy people and dudes who've been twacked for years so my mind was able to convince itself that these worms in the cuts on my hands were real. I was finally talked down about the bugs after showing a friend and him obviously telling me I'm just seeing shit so I got some sleep and they went away. But deep down in my mind i was still convinced they were real.
After forgetting about the bugs for a week or two another long stint of staying up brought back the worms and I researched parasites that can affect humans and actually fully convinced myself i had toxioplasmosis (an actual parasitosis that can be found in the human body contracted from cats) to the point of telling friends and family members of this disease. But again, after getting some sleep it went away and i forgot about it for another week or two.
Here comes the first downhill connection my mind made... sometimes, when loading a bowl of one particular batch i picked up from city A (no name for anonymity) I always seemed to notice little black haiwormy looking things in my crystal after the first crackback. I made the connection to city A and the dirty meth and I remembered (or my mind made up) reading something about cartels putting parasites in their meth to hook people more. Sounds ridiculous but after another period of no sleep I noticed the meth bugs again and immediately associated the parasites in the meth with my own parasite as well as the association with city A.
Here's where it gets insanely deep. During another binge I spoke with a dealer about the worms and he mentiones other people had seen or talked about the same things. After getting even deeper and more sleep deprived i noticed that the parasite would create a physical euphoria when responding to music (really just the meth but ya know psychosis) and my mind made up a conversation with my plug about meeting at a certain location to truly experience the parasite high and I somehow ended up in a hotel parking lot with some christian radio station that magically came on my radio (was probably just me messing with the radio before and i forgot) which was significant in my mind because typically I'd never have christian music on.
So, I'll review the order of which things connected: parasite to black wormy things to meth only from city A to conversation with plug to parasite musically active to religious implications. At this point, my mind has constructed a story of psychosis over the period of months reappearing every time I was too sleep deprived.
The final straw occured when after getting extremely sleep deprived, I was experiencing the delusional "parasite high" from the christian radio to the point I now "KNEW" that the parasite was my bodies 6th sense that connected me to god. Now the radio station had full power over me as I likened it to gods plan. I started to hear instructions from the radio station to drive certain places and ended up literally following a car cross the city to the back of a restaraunt where I witnessed full on schizophrenic hallucinations. Behind this restaraunt I got out of my car and spoke with multiple people that weren't there and worshipped a shrine that wasnt there. I spoke with these people about how the radio led me here and that I was looking for god and they gave me instructions on reaching the higher level by exploring THE ROOF of said restaraunt (which i did; climbed up one of those half ladders) and also moving various pieces of trash around and filling my car with a full gas can i just found in the alley so I could "further experience gods instructions".
Eventually I ended up back at the shrine which now had this sort of keno game (type of chance game common on casino machines that is basically a powerball lottery) constructed out of tea light bottoms filled with water. The fake people instructed me that in order to become one of the cartel and learn the secrets of the parasite I had to choose the right number on the keno and i promptly chose 7 (lucky number right) and I literally heard the jingle of the keno game ringing. But alas I was informed that I chose incorrectly and failed. I went back to my car and my mind heard the christian radio speaking about failure and the inevitably of the possibility of losing when dealing with chance.
Just then, seemingly appearing out of thin air, I noticed a cop car pulling up directly next to me and an officer getting out. My mind quickly snapped back to reality as they approached and I cracked my windows. They informed me that someone at the restaraunt had made a call about someone in the back and asked me whst i was doing. I gave them my ID and, to the best of my ability, professionally told them I had to make a phone call and didnt want to drive dangerously while on the phone. By the grace of whatever is out there they believed me and just told me I need to go because I'm in an employee-only area. The cop interaction sobered me up significantly and I drove home.
To this day I'm still confused about some parts and while I knew it was all psychosis there are still parts that I can't explain how they are fake because of evidence my brain made up to solidify them. Also, throughout the whole long ordeal, over months I just generally had occasions of insanity including (but not limited to) telling friends, family, even doctors at the ER that I had a parasite, seeing the parasite come out of my skin at times as well as trying to catch the worms with my fingers or tweezers, and seeing the parasite in other people typically at the game rooms that tons of tweakers hung out at near and in city A.
I was also thrown in a behavorial hospital detox for psychotic breaks for a week just before the restaraunt fiasco because the ER mental health doctor deemed me a danger to myself and others after telling her with absolute certainty I had toxioplasmosis and aggressively arguing I still had it after the results of my bloodwork showed no parasite. Furthermore, I had a broken heel that hurt to walk on for literally a month and half after falling from the half ladder I used to get onto the roof of the restaraunt.
TL;DR first time getting meth bugs I was convinced it was real. I kept myself high over the course of a couple months and got very little sleep to the point that my mind made up an entire storyline with false memories regarding the parasite I thought i had and its seemingly clear connection to god. During these months i lost credibility at my job and with family, went to the ER, was thrown in a psych ward, broke my heel, and finally was almost arrested after talking with people that weren't actually there in the alley behind a restaraunt about my parasite that awakened a 6th sense to interpret what god was telling me to do.
So my story of my wildest psychosis is actually a string of multiple psychotic episodes that connected false memories between them. They basically conglomerated to form a super storm in the end which solidified the definite belief in the psychosis.
Lasting effects: I kind of permanently induced a small amount of occasional visual and auditory hallucinations and am now on olanzipine 10mg for psychiatrist diagnosed bipolar disorder-schizophrenic tendencies. It mitigates the hallucinations well and I feel like a more composed, less paranoid, calm person. I believe my over abuse brought to the surface dormant mental illness. I think I can look back at it in retrospect as a positive judging by the fact that I may never have had my underlying mental illness diagnosed or treated if I hadnt had this experience.
