ryanm and vastine you can go to the powerball page and it will show you all the states that powerball is in and click on your neighbors. raynm you can go to nebraska and play for 25 drawings. i know you don't need to go but just wanted to let you know you can if you want to play longer. vastine you can go to kentucky and play for 26 drawings. the last time i was in memphis and i drove up to kentucky to get me a powerball ticket. at the time there was no lottery in tennessee.

peace.

i have done a lot of travel across the country and the rules do change from state to state about how many draws you can play on mm or powerball. the longest is kentucky and pennsylvania for 26 drawing. i think illinois gives you 16 drawings for mm. most of what i have seen for mm is 10 drawings. texas is the only mm state with a multiplyer. i went on the road to support my lotto hobby. whoops just remembered california. you can play mega for 20 drawings in a row. it it was me i would have driven...

Isn't the amount of draws determined by the state in which the ticket is purchased? I once thought of driving to GA buy a MM ticket, but they only sell for 10 draws. That's only 5 weeks. Actually, the gas alone wouldn't be worth it. MA sells season tickets, but you can't buy a MM ticket from out-of-state by mail. I just assume PB states were the same with different rules. Maybe I'm wrong

Well, this Powerball drawing I did not match a single number, so I am now playing three draws on the same quick pick.

What you did sounds like what we do in my office for our lottery pool. Every payday Friday(which is every 2 weeks for us), each member puts up $4. From that money, we buy Powerball and Lotto tickets for the 4 draws that will take place until next payday. We've won a few dollars here and there, but never enough to even pay for the pool. We keep trying though.

I think that's an excellent way of placing $200 on PB, in all respects I can imagine

If I say jackpot can I get a very small share? lol. Most likely less than a $100 if not.

I hadnt realized that PB allows that many draws. I use a KIOSK machine and it only lets a person pickup to ten draws. Still, no harm no fould in playing so many drawings if it can be afforded.

All it takes is that one series of numbers to win anyways, be it a five dollar purchase or a larger one.

Best of luck! And my prediction is you'll probably reap back about 25% .

I have not won a single prize in Powerball since November and if I don't win anything this Saturday, I'm going to start playing the same quick pick for three draws at a time (three is the magic number because the smallest PB prize is $3), although if I get a $4 PB win, I'll play four draws on one quick pick when I cash it.

i agree with fxsterling. i do what he does all the time and i prefer it that way. i would rather have 1 dollar in several drawings than spend all my money on one drawing. the odds are already against me so why not stretch the fun out a few more months. i buy the longes available ticket i can possibly afford at the time.

i have hit up to four times on a ticket like that at times. jus so much fun cashing out after the ticket has it's run.

i wouldn't have spent as much as he did but to each... [ More ]

I agree with Doc I would have purchased more lines for less draws. But if you got Lady Luck in your back pocket it does not matter because you will win and win big.-weshar75

I hate to disappoint you, but you should have gone with 200 lines for one drawing. You'd have a better chance of winning something. You just have the same odds of winning a prize for 20 draws.
