Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
I feel almost the same way, but only till the cash value gets stupid high and then only a *very few* (1-5 ?) just to have that infinitesimal chance of a big win. What I do now is take the cost of MM tickets (now) and dedicate that amount to PB so that PB gets a boost from the MM pricing error. You could be giving another game of your choice a boost that way too. But of course, the choice is yours. Best wishes for either way you play.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
Thanks for the info. I did not have a clue where to get this. It does give me an idea of when to go All In . I was just watching the cash value numbers jump for my plan (Man plans and who laughs?) and was thinking about 500-750 Mil cash value and then go for it. But, as we know, a win can happen any old time that would ruin my plan for now (again, I refer to the laughing!). My recent grumbles were just referring to a *long* dry spell before I stopped playing last March and just saved the co

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
Congratulations to you! My luck has not been nearly so good. I said in a previous message that even before I started my saving for the Big One routine that I had been on a *long* no win streak. Sadly, the streak is now continuing. Since PB passed the 200 Mil cash value mark about 6 draws ago I have been buying 3 tickets per draw just to be in the game as well as saving $6 per draw for the Big One . I have only hit 1 number 4 times out of 18 tickets purchased, mixed between some quick pi

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
I might or might not have won anything actually playing 1 ticket for each drawing. I do not know, you do not know, nobody really knows. It is a game of chance. ! GRIN ! One of the tickets from my planned big purchase could hit the monster jackpot simply because I bought more than one ticket in that purchase. Who knows...? Certainly not me, but I am having fun right now while saving money for the moonshot. But according to my past purchase pattern I have been right so far. In fact, when I was

Lottery is not random it's predeterminedReply
I've always believed that state lotteries truly want winners, especially big jackpot winners. What does rigging a draw do for the state? I think there are two obvious reasons for the lotteries themselves to rig the game(s). One would be so that a few insiders could divert prize money to themselves. The other, and better, IMHO, reason would be to allow a jackpot to continue growing in order to boost sales. The problem is that no matter how much the people running the lottery might apprec

Hoping to match all six? I do not usually even try to speak for others, but this time I will take a chance and say that what you wrote is exactly what everyone here in the forum wants no matter if it is with PB or MM! And, just for grins and giggles and because they will the last drawings of 2025 and the first drawings of 2026 I am going to get 1 PB with Powerplay and 1 MM ticket for each of the next two drawings for each game. P.S. Do you remember your advise to me, that I had

Mega Millions constant $10 million increasesReply
A $2 prize (times whatever multiplier, so $4 to $20) for matching two white balls would add 18% to the value of all non-jackpot prizes in total. That's a lot for such a small win. More accurately a $2 prize for matching 2 white balls would reduce the money that goes to the jackpot by about 14.6%. That would reduce the current cash value of $67.9 million to $58 million. For those who believe the advertising it would reduce the current $150 million annuity to $128 million if they abandoned or
