Short answer is yes.
I have won it many times and that is only buying one ticket daily you can buy many of course.You don't need to travel it becomes a regular part of regular games.The only benefit to visiting the Future is doing a Micheal J Fox/Marty McFly and checking newspaper lottery records etc at city hall and getting numbers that won in the past.Huge boost to chance to win the JP
Remember in Back To The Future Marty tries to get that Sports almanac,it is the same concept you know what is going to happen so you bet on team X or play numbers XYZ
