    But I think it’s a bit incidental, no? That is, you have a logistical problem of not having enough hours in the day to stand at a machine and enter numbers by hand (even if you hire others). Guess that would vary state to state, country to country, in how they sell them.

    Of course the catch is that even if you pull it off, you have no certainty on how many people you will split it with.

    I only play when the odds are favorable. That is, when the statistical expectation is at least nearly the cost of the ticket. But I’m a bit put off by the fact that I cannot order a machine-generated number that has not yet been sold.
