19/2/2008 - “Earn Big”

   It’s a material world, so working hard for money won’t let you live your dreams. In reality smart working is required and not hard working. Show your smartness in the game of chances and win some easy money which you can spend at will. The game of Lottery needs smart play and that too in real earnest.

 Gold bond

     This is the name of a popular Lottery. Many people in the past have been frequent winners. As of now a few lucky winners are Mrs. Penn of Bungay, Mr. and Mrs. Card of Contessey, W Adams of Harleston and S. Parr of Sprowston.They took time to get lucky, however with every mistake they learnt.They don’t claim to know a sure shot way of winning, however they  certainly know ways that could increase your chances of winning. Make sure your play is calculated play. If it happens to be otherwise, things could go haywire. And once you go haywire in the game of chances, things could prove to be fatal. It’s is better to play it safe and study the game properly. Infact you should seek advice from frequent winners and try and implement what they say. Interpreting what they say correctly is of utmost importance.

     Nobody can claim to have a license to win each time. Frequent winners would vouch for this. The thing that could be achieved through Constance play is your frequency of winning. Once you get the hang of a particular lottery, which is quite difficult you are sure to win more frequently. And if you happen to win frequently, you would automatically play more frequently thereby increasing your familiarity with the game. This would result in your becoming a lottery buff. It’s quite alright, if you take it in the right spirit. However, if you go into a trance it would be practically impossible to get out of the rut.

 Sherlock Holmes

      It won’t pay even if you become a Sherlock Holmes of the game of chances. The lottery organizers themselves don’t know which numbers are going to turn lucky. And you can’t read the mind of a computer, can you? So better not try to become a Sherlock Holmes of the game of chances, as it won’t pay. Unless you want to be a part of a lottery scam. And if such is the case online or off it, be prepared to cool your heels for quite sometime. As a responsible citizen you wouldn’t want this to be the case. The obvious thing to do is to indulge in the game after much forethought. Being irrational and impulsive can cause you and your near and dear ones quite a lot. So be tactful and take it easy.

28/1/2008 - The Game Of Chances

Heat seeker

   This term Heat seeker can be applied or used in context with almost anything. The game of Lottery can be described as an addiction, where in people are always on the look out for big money. In other words they become Heat seekers. For them it’s hunting high and low. There are some ardent players, who break all boundaries to indulge in the game. They just want to put all of their hard earned cash on line in search of earning a lot of quick money.

 Live Wire

    Playing the game of chances is like playing with a Live Wire. Some people get a high out it, yet others are shocked. Being a live wire the game of chances needs careful handling. A whole lot of forethought is required, before nose diving into this game. Reckless people rarely if ever emerge winners. Those who do are plain lucky dudes. Talking about luck, fate or whatever one may call it, plays a vital role, though. It is said God helps those who help themselves, this point is debatable though. You will find a score of people who firmly believe that God helps those who need help. I wonder if they could be right. One thing is for certain, you need to play your cards really well to stand any chances of scoring a win. Fortune may favor you, but the thing is how you utilize your green backs.

 High Voltage

    It’s as if the game of chances is telling you “looking for trouble, look at me” its not so always, as aforementioned be choosy and play safe. If you play a rational game, chances are that your winning streak would increase. Its not a forbidden fruit anymore, people of all age groups indulge in this form a sport now days. And believe you me, the winners have a ball of a time, without taking into consideration the pros and cons. The logical thing would be to enjoy after investing some worthwhile amount.

 Right Here

   If you were to ask a lay person, he/she would probably say that Heaven and Hell are both on this Earth. They might be true as well. The bottom line remains, that one should live life King size, without harming anyone in the process. Live and let live, don’t take ulterior advantage of anyone. People who do such things would be happy for some time; however, it’s a short lived glory. It will be easy come easy go. If after winning a Jack pot you behave meaner than a meanest dog with his back against the wall, then may the higher power save you from the aftermath? Different people behave in different ways, but for those who behave wrongly heres a wee bit of an advice. The guys you thought are your friends when you had a lot of money to spend would suddenly become indifferent. They will use you when the going is good, but discard you when the going gets tough.

28/12/2007 - WAR TIME LOTTERY GAME

WAR TIME LOTTERY

A preface of war time lottery

 Lotteries have been used by countries to raise funds at the time of emergencies such as war or famine. Lotteries are an invaluable source of funds for governments which are facing a resource crunch. Lotteries have been used by both the US and the UK to finance their war efforts in the past.

After the war eruption in the month of August’1914 the lots of lottery game, both illegal and legal, increased and flourished as citizens hunted to raise funds for the purpose of military effort. The police force inclined not to file a legal action against these lottery game operators as they suspected that courts would not impose any penalty or punishments, particularly against the women who were running and organizing humanitarian markets to raise fund for the families of dead soldiers. Such prize drawing was patronized passionately, laying the Massey management on the horns of a dilemma over their proliferation. Their cause was laudable and arguably much needed, but Massey was cautious, not wanting to upset church leaders or his Reform Party colleagues in the House, one of whom alluded to the liberalization of lottery regulations as akin to base German immorality.

Massey compromised, in 1915, after a harsh debate, administration launched a bill which dispensed with the prize restrictions for lotteries that were organized to raise patriotic funds. In reply to this lottery game rule, James McCombs (The Labor MP) castigated the administration for permitting the loyalty of the citizens to be dishonored by such an income process of raising funds. But this was to overstate the case. A primary reason for the supply with the ''work-of-art'' restraint had been to furnish for the liberality of Texasers who were contributing to the leaders of the community a wide range of expensive goods as prizes in such lotteries. Minister of Internal Affairs George Russell looked to the Texas provincial Patriotic and ‘War Relief Associations’ to categorize the lotteries. These associations tended to be operating by local leaders, which furnished them extensive acceptability. Even before the legislation was passed, Auckland’s mayor James Gunson wanted a monster £5,000 lottery to raise funds for the rehabilitation of soldiers in his city. Buoyed with this kind of enthusiasm, politicians from all sides of the House gave Massey’s Bill overwhelming support and it became law in October 1915.

A veritable blast of raffles to lift war resources followed, with lottery prizes that series from cars, boats, houses, horses and buggies to residential furniture. In May 1917, for example, a £1,000 Crippled Soldiers'' Hostel and Union offered a ZL motor car as first prize: the tickets were sixpence and sold out within a month. Throughout January 1919 a community of Wellington businessmen planned a TDSCU (Trentham Dominion Scholarships Art Union) to raise fund to provide learning opportunities for the children of '' broken and maimed '' revisited servicemen. Russell gave the supporters every deliberation, double sanctioning a deferment of the raffle date after the ticket sales were sluggish by the influenza epidemic.

Heart Strings

Christchurch lotto games are played upon loyal heart-strings. Between February 1919 and February 1920, a series of art unions raised more than £n, to free Lancaster Park from debt and dedicate it as a memorial to the fallen athletes of Canterbury. The last lottery in the sequence had as 1st prize a presented a bungalow valued at £750. This was fully subscribed and local newspapers reveled in the city’s pride. In Wellington in October 1921.

The remarkable presentation of the ‘war time lotteries’ made them a countrywide phenomenon. Raffles were no longer local activities focus to the closest moral scrutiny and bureaucratic.

8/12/2007 - Scratchy Scratchy

 The old saying of, you scratch my back and Ill scratch your back, still holds good. When one buys a scratch card, one has to scratch it. And, in turn, if you win or loose, then you’ll be scratchy all over. It makes sound logic, to ponder on that one.

Achy Breaky

You win some, and you loose some. The, aftermath of the results of the lottery, are worth a watch. Different people respond differently. In, both the cases the countenance is lopsided. And the impetus of the expression lingers, for quite sometime. Those who have, witnessed such a happening would vouch for it. At times the child in you comes out, and you giggle or weep. People have made things for their generations to come, with the game of lottery. Luck should have been an heirloom, sort of thing. What fun then?

Fragile

The scratch card lottery is a very fragile one. Literally, and even otherwise. Otherwise because, the results themselves makes one like that (fragile). Prone and vulnerable, it even makes one succumb to anything. Kings have known to become paupers, and vice- versa. The rags to riches story, which we ever so often, come to hear comes into the picture here. One shouldn’t be surprised to find a guy, staying in a shack, cruising a big old Buick all of a sudden (winners), according to a synopsis, people who win, react in either of the two ways most times. Either, they go berserk or they become too pious. The thing is, to keep your head on your shoulders, and not get carried away, in the case of a win. People end up spending aimlessly, and ruin, what might have been?

Repercussions

As aforementioned, the aftermath of the lottery results, is worth a watch. You would find people who are sulking, suddenly spring into action. And for people facing the brunt, with an expression, as if they are the most discarded creatures, on the face of this Earth. They would be so gloomy, so as to get everybody down. The, thing is, not to loose heart, instead learn from your mistakes. They say, practice makes a man perfect. However, you cannot really practice here. You can use your brains instead. In fact one has to be very practical minded, to stand a fair chance of winning. One more thing, which most people tend to overlook, is that one should not be under the influence of any kind of, a high when indulging in any form of a lottery.

8/10/2007 - HISTORY OF LOTTERY GAME!

A PENNY HERE A PAY PACKET THERE

 I am here to tell you something about the gambling with lottery game. I love this game  as a best way you to earn money by spending your little income on purchasing lottery. Here you will come to know about the history of lottery game. How the lottery game came into existing.

When caught, many two-up operators were punished mercilessly. The organiser of a school raided in Auckland's Freemans in 1952 (despite boards nailed over the windows and the posting of a guard on the verandah) was sent to jail for three months by a magistrate who called such dens a 'curse' on the city. Others were incarcerated for even longer. During the 1950S and beyond, gambling entrepreneurs infiltrated the pay-day lunchbreaks of freezing workers and watersiders, extracting huge profits in two-up and more profitable crown-and-anchor operations, not only in winnings but also in loan sharking. As men lost their week's pay over lunch, their wives complained to employers and the police. Security personnel stamped out the practice with the support of the unions, although it seems to have enjoyed a surreptitious resurgence in Auckland in the early 1970S. Bay

Two-up in its traditional form has all but disappeared in recent years. In Australia it is kept alive, officially, only in casinos, where it has been accorded legitimate status nearly a century after its arrival in the antipodes, and in the main street of Kalgoorlie, in the harsh outback of Western Australia. But the tossing of coins has remained a simple way to draw lot, make a decision or win money. Hotel bar patrons, their judgment clouded, toss coins against each other or the host. In Dargaville in 1988, a publican tossed a local dairy farmer for his property and won. But the publican had no desire to milk cows. He offered the farmer another throw-for $1,000. This time the farmer won. He is still milking cows and, occasionally, tossing coins. The downside of such reliance on chance is that losers can quickly become aggrieved. In September 1992 one Aucklander complained about losing $6,000 on the toss of coins. The judge considered that the complainant was, at least in part, the author of his own misfortune but nevertheless fined his opponent $700 for illegal gaming. The latter, of course, was still well ahead.

These players were working men, the group whose gambling predilections have been dominant since the earliest days of European settlement. Long hours of work-often in isolation-high wages, the lack of a saving ethos and the desire for gregarious and noisy forms of entertainment, all led to prodigious levels of drinking and gambling, especially where there were few alternative attractions. In public works camps, gambling was an institution. At early dam sites men bet on cards, dice, two-up and with local bookmakers, despite the presence sometimes of YMCAs which tried to organize more wholesome recreation. In the 1950S Mangakino was a frontier hydro settlement of 2,000 mostly single men, where drunkenness, gambling and prostitution were rife. Some inhabitants became gambling addicts, and unpaid debts led to instances of personal violence and property damage. Eventually local men organized a committee that limited the weekend two-up rings and all-night crown-and-anchor and card schools. This was common practice; such communities were self-regulating. Police raids from out of town tended to follow complaints. After a report that large sums of money were changing hands nightly (one worker claimed to have lost $900 in one two-up session), Upper Hutt police raided the Mangaroa tunnellers' camp in May 1954 to find men gambling in the shower room. Justices of the peace lectured the men in court about earning their money like 'horses' and spending it like 'asses'.

As the agricultural economy boomed after the war, freezing works flourished. New plants were built; others expanded. Many more men were employed. Overtime was available and eagerly sought. Huge pay-packets burned holes in men's pockets. The Horotiu works near Hamilton was typical. Its laboring men recreated in a sub-culture that was pervaded by gambling. For decades these workers had their bookies working alongside them; there was at least one in every department, sometimes two. Men played euchre and poker for £1 a point, or more. Crib, too, was common, played for 5d a point, expensive enough in a high-scoring game. Crown and-anchor was played on the premises and in the local rugby league club, often in tandem with the showing of pornographic movies as a fundraising venture.
