I think a similar thing happened in Illinois ... They couldn't pay out winning for a little while since they didn't have the money.
Yea that makes sense. Bigger ‘pools’ of money (bigger jackpots) gives them more money to play with. That makes a lot of sense actually. And provides incentives these days to make sure the jackpots are all really large.
Good Mr. President! Now get these bastards :-) (in reference to your name ;-) ).
Also, if you want to read a good story about how lotteries can be manipulated, check this one out ... I was really young when this happened ... the guy that ran the local TV show (Bowling for Dollars) was in on the scam. He was an icon in the area.

Also note that all of these lotteries still use those "balls" in a machine to present the illusion of randomness to those that throw their money at this idiot tax that's accepted as "normal" all across the country.
