I am not a gambler. But I have bought the odd scratch ticket/lotto ticket/casino... uh chips I guess, since it's been legal for me to do so. I have never won anything. Maybe 20 or so scratch tickets, 4 or 5 lottery tickets, 10 or so Proline tickets. 50 bucks or so in casinos. Never won a dime. Hell, I've even put in for some of those one-in-three odds of winning heart and stroke lottery tickets. Like I said, I'm no gambler, I could call it quits if I did win, but I seem to be struck with shit luck on draws so that hasn't really ever come up!

e: my parents furnished our first house with lottery winnings. They won like 3rd prize or something (4/6 on lotto 6/49 I think but I would have to ask to be sure).

A buddy and I walked into a gas station, he asked for a scratch off. The clerck rips of the wrong one and he says he doesn't want it, he wanted a different one. So I took it. Turned out to be a $100 dollar winner. He was salty!

The most I've won is probably like $10 on a $3 ticket. Although my aunt won $50K about 10 years ago.

Don't you guys know that if you saved your money instead of trying to win it big, you'd have more money.

The most I have won so far was $2500 on the Super 7 lottery. I had 5 numbers plus the bonus
That was about 3 years ago. I play the lottery every week and haven't won since

I won $150 on a Monopoly scratch ticket, but with all the losing tickets I've bought in the course of my life that probably only puts me ahead by $50.

Best post in the thread.  Lotteries are for people who are bad at math.

The most I've "won" was when I sent three tickets off to my dad in a birthday card and he returned them all to me because they all were winners -- a total of $76.

I've won $100 on a $1 ticket. The neighbor across the street won $35,000 last summer on a $10 ticket. I saw a copy of the ticket on the winners board at the local Circle K where it was bought.

When my girlfriend (now fiance') turned 21 I bought her a ticket, won $100. I never won anything, but we're still ahead of the game.

If you're talking casino wise, I won $80 off a slot machine once, it was like my second pull. Once I got that I'm like, well I'm done for the night, lets go Everyone else just sat down.

Did you rob your grandpa? That's not very nice

I don't win s*** and if I win it's usually less than the ticket cost.
