CASH,
The only reason I can think of, on why PA is dragging out the death of Super 6, is because of the Pick 6 Lotto in NJ. Ever since NJ joined Mega Millions their Pick 6 jackpot starts at $1 Mil and grows $500K every drawing (like Super 6 is now). Occasionally the NJ Pick 6 has gotten up to like $42 Mil. My thought is that PA would be content to have the same thing happen.
Considering it took PA so long to join a multi-state game I don't get the impression they will replace a PA only game with Hot Lotto. Depending on how Winfall does in Michigan, perhaps PA will copy that game?
I don't play Super 6 any more so I hope they do replace it. Although I don't love Hot Lotto I wouldn't mind. The game I'd really like to see PA add is the "Extra" to the Daily Number (Pick 3) or Big 4. It seems like a fun addition to those games, and I'd probably become a daily player if they added that feature.
