@NCEL ...yeah I see we playing with a full deck of (losers) when playing Digital Instants...Just did another test...Deposit $10 @ 5:03 and play for .50 on every play and by 5:11 all gone including the $1.40 I won! That is crazy one win of .75 then .10 .05 and .50. That just is not good when you sit back and really look at how these games are robbing players. I did not even have fun for a whole ten minutes and now back to DEMO MODE and Watch I WIN BIG in first few plays!

@NCEL how do a person play .50 on Digital Instant game Fortunes of Cleopatra and lose a $100 and then play DEMO mode and in the $50 Demo money on Fourth play get the Free Spins and not once did I get the Free Spins or Bonus playing for my money out of $100!NC Lottery
Hi, Chris! Every play is an independent event, so past results don't impact future results of a new Digital Instants play. Whenever you click the play button, the system randomly generates an outcome from all possible outcomes, and it definitely just takes a lot of luck to be a big winner. We're crossing our fingers for you and wishing you lots of luck, Chris!

I have been buying scratch off. I don’t believe in the people winning the amount that people say I don’t want to see other people when I’m trying to win myself. Specially pick four pick three. I don’t understand how you get so close on doing pick four and pick three and you guys changed the number so I’m trying to find out how in the world do y’all go on our page and look at our numbers before we put the number in and switch a number when you draw a number and knowing that we won, but you change the number when the number come out I don’t understand this so I’m probably not gonna be playing no more because this is a this game is not fun anymore because you can’t win anythingNC Lottery
It definitely takes a lot of luck to be a big winner. We hope you'll only play if you're enjoying yourself - if it no longer feels fun, it may be a good time for a break.
