Thief steals $27,000 worth of Pennsylvania Lottery tickets from gas stationReply
I think they need to mix up the distribution a little better, because if they keep doing it the same way- guess what the jackpot winners continually wind up in the same area Most of the tickets go to population centers, because thats where the most tickets get bought. For the most part, the big winners will also end up in the same population centers simply because that's where the rest of the tickets will go. The chance of any particular box being put on a truck headed for NYC is higher

Michigan woman who played Lotto 47 since it launched decades ago wins $1.1 million jackpotReply
I called a few family members and my neighbor to tell them the big news. They say don't tell anyone if you win, but am sure the neighbor has to be a close friend, because they even told them the local store sold a winning ticket. Congratulations on the win. Now all you people that say you only need one line, well, I guess I need to up my game. Went to the store to get my PB ticket for Saturday, tried as hard as I could, but the only words that left my mouth were I will get one P

New Jersey couple wins $3 million lottery prize six months after winning $1 millionReply
A husband-and-wife team defied insurmountable odds 0 Apparently the odds were completely surmountable. That's not how probabilities are calculated at all. That's exactly how odds are calculated. For instance, the odds of someone winning both PB MM jackpot would be 1 in 292M*290M. That's the odds of winning both games if you buy only a single ticket for each game. If you buy 10 tickets for each game the probability of winning either is increased tenfold to 1 in 29.2 and 1 i

Powerball reaches $643 million: highest lottery jackpot of 2025Reply
Yep it's not even a top 25 jackpot per the cash value. What really matters is that the advertised annuity is #23 but the cash that a winner will almost certainly take is only #37. It's getting there, but as of now this one isn't a huge jackpot in terms of the biggest jackpots of the last few years. The 5% annual increase in payments makes the lump sum even less than it would be with constant annual payments. I'm surprised that you got that completely backwards. With fixed annual pa
