No winner again: Powerball jackpot hits $1.6 billion in longest-ever rollover runReply
According to the top 25 list it appears that 39 is the record number of rolls for Mega Millions So 3/2 * 39 = 58 or 59 rolls for Powerball. Timewise it would be the same so Powerball is still won quicker until it reaches 59 rolls.

Virginia Lottery Director Khalid R. Jones appointed as Mega Millions Lead DirectorReply
Speaking of Mega Millions, some lucky soul had X2 multiplier in CA with five #'s. Though no fan of parimutuel like they have, they scooped up just over $5 million. We'll see what direction, if any, this new Director takes.

New Millionaire for Life multi-state game coming in 2026Reply
This is a non starter. 1st Problem: Computer simulation with no ball drop. 2nd Problem: Top prize isn't nearly enough for a $ 5 line. 3rd problem: Daily Draws - 2-3 times a week is max. Summary...MUSL apparently doesn't believe their own numbers after looking at the revenue loss on Mega Millions. IF they made the Cash Ball a multiplier of the jackpot that would spice it up tremendously (They would still have 1 as an out). Remember the Tennessee Cash 3 Double numbers problem (where doubles were c

New Millionaire for Life multi-state game coming in 2026Reply
You would think that after seeing the huge drop off in sales for Mega Millions they would rethink their 5.00 a ticket plan for a paltry prize of a million dollars a year. No one is going to want that. Most players are older than 45 so all they can win is 30 million or so for 5.00 a line. No thanks. No one likes Lucky for Life or Cash for Life now as it is because of the paltry prize structure. With ten more numbers in the matrix forget it. It will not sell. Throw a wet and moldy blanket on this

Montana Lottery aims to prohibit bulk purchases after group takes gamble on $1.6 million jackpotReply
Total BS. This is the problem with these agencies. They spent the money and won this has happen since lotteries came to be. Groups are now smarter and using algorithms,prayers,voodoo etc etc but the difference is now they are using money to win as a group. State lotteries have been using the least played number algorithm though they claim they don't but the proof is there. From pick3-4-5 games now they will change the pick6 games to make it harder to buy all the combinations aka to buy out it wi

Uncle Sam only ate what he always does -- his standard 37%. Mega Millions are 56% of that. Your anger is misplaced.

Oregon Lottery proposes rules regulating courier services and preventing bulk ticket purchasesReply
Ummmmm sounds pretty fishy to me. I guess they feel people figured out their sneaky strategy when we buy in bulk your chances goes up and eventually more people win lottery so they got to pay out more so they lose money. As far out of state purchase I don't get that one but my understanding they just want more winning in their state of people who from there! On other news I hope MEGA millions losing money every draw because I see you greedy fools only raising it every 10 million. I'll be 100 yea

Virginia Lottery players rake in $7.9 million with 4-4-4-4 in Pick 4Reply
Yeah those 0000, 1111, 2222, 3333, 4444, 5555, 6666, 7777, 8888, 9999 are hot numbers with devoted fans. I am sure the payout will be 7 to 10M payout when they get drawn. I read that the number 123456 gets played by 10K people a day. A number like that, the jackpot would get divided. It reminds me of the TV show Lost. The character Hurley won 114M, so fans of the show had been playing his number: 4-8-15-16-23-42. In January 2011, the winning Mega Millions number was 4-8-15-25-47-42 with the jack
