CiVic, I agree, 6/49 is very popular in Canada.... that's why it was chosen as the first game for ABET. Profit margins to the company are essentially fixed at 40% and the odds or winning are very high compared to normal lotteries. The Private Beta is complete, now the actual game goes online any day now. Could be tomorrow morning, could be next week for public comment. The game will require no download of software. They have a number of ideas that will keep the site "Sticky" . What gets me excited most, however, is that there is no waiting for hours or days to find out if you won. Their lottery becomes a personal draw and instant gratification game, much like playing the slots in Vegas. They will also start people off with some free games who open an account. They have thought things out well.
