Questioning the Lottery Integrity

The land and online casino gambling industry over the past two years has really encountered some heavy scandals and allegations – and the lottery industry has not been an exception to this trend. Specifically, the Canadian gambling industry has encountered some scandal allegations that it’s having a hard time shaking off despite a recent study concluding that the wins by lottery retailers and their families were within the acceptable range. Interestingly enough, although scandals at the online casinos and poker sites take top priority in the international news media, the ongoing issues within the Canadian lottery have not gotten much play in the media.

One of the reasons, perhaps, that the officials are fairly unconcerned with the allegations against the lottery is the fact that new protocols are in place and the Atlantic Lottery Corporation (ALC) has been apparently working diligently to institute new polices that safeguard against this issue. Another interesting point, the online casino poker gambling scandals that came out of Canada just last year have really overshadowed some of the smaller issues – the poker cheating scandals were worth millions.

But, despite the low playing coverage of the new results published by an ALC study, there are some concerns. The stats show that the amounts won by family members is greater than is probable according to statistician, Ian Dohoo (but is still entirely possible 1 in 285). Others in the land and online casino lottery industry though merely note that retailers and their families are more likely to play higher stakes games – this they contend counts for the discrepancies.
