I feel like the North Carolina lottery is robbing people. Play a pick 3 50 to 100 times on a number for months and don’t win. Then when I stop playing the number the lottery plays that exact number. If the North Carolina lottery dont want pay out the win then you should let people know not to play that many times. Why do you guys do that. It’s not fare………………..NC Lottery
Hi Kristian, every time you play the lottery, it takes luck to beat the odds. That's true whether you play one ticket or 10, or 50. There's only ever a chance to win—never a guarantee. We wish every ticket could win a prize, but prize money comes from non-winning tickets. That's why $1 could win $1,000 or $10 could win $1 million. We hope that you will only play for fun if you're enjoying yourself, otherwise there are many things in life more important than the lottery.
