Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
Everyone we talk to is not playing. $5.00 and forced to buy in to the multiplier are factors. Zero plays here. We can give a flying turd about the jackpot size and growth.

I had a winning 2by2 ticket, cashed it out and bought one MM. The multiplier on it is the dreaded x2. I guess it is what it is. Good luck to all playing tonight

This thread is anti-MM and has been from the very beginning. The first post reads: I've stopped playing Mega Millions completely. The automagic multiplier does not impress. The odds are a mess. I'll play the others for less.

For the value, PB at $4 for my 1 ticket is better because you get to add the multiplier and the double play as opt in add ons, not forced. Even for a week... $10 for MM, one line, one draw, two drawings $12 for PB , one line, two draws, three drawings $35 for M4L, one line, one draw, seven drawings I am sticking with the PB. I did like the old cash 4 life at $2, could care less about the M4L, I don't even bother tracking the history.

Thanks for the LFL reminder - my sleep issues have left me kind of groggy today and I was only thinking about PB MM for 2025-2026. I have not played LFL for over six and a half years. Back then my Cubicle Neighbor and I used to pair up on that game along with PB MM. After thinking about it, while I am getting the LFL ticket tomorrow I may as well get a Rolling Cash 5 ticket too as it is up to 140K after starting at 100K. I think you are so right, it would be great to end 2025 as a milli

I am going with the prediction of no rollover for the drawing tonight. Why? Because of the one MM ticket that I got for my birthday...! What could possibly go wrong with that other than the multiplier was a 2X that does not count toward the jackpot...? Kate: Please feel free to get a jump on this one and begin preparing a really nice winners story about a Lottery Post user achieving victory over Mega Millions. Best wishes and good luck to everyone else for the second place priz

The problem is not that the prize itself is too small. The problem is that $165M/290M = 57 cents. I am not paying five dollars for a prize worth 57 cents (minus taxes) plus lower prizes worth $1.25 with a multiplier gimmick I don't want. I jumped in the Powerball frenzy on the last drawing because I figured it's now or never (and I was right, it was won). The $2 ticket price was worth 800 million dollars, even considering the chances someone else would win. That's why I bought 100 ticket

Hooray for you! I like reading the writings of a wise person! I haven't touched MM since the price hike either. But, I will buy a *very* few tickets when/if MM reaches some breathtaking cash value. Why? Because you do have to be in the game to win the game, no other reason. Till then I am taking the funds that I would have spent on MM ($5 tickets) and dedicating them to PB. I think of that as a sort of punishment for MM and a bonus for PB because of what MM did with the price hike and fo

We Disimulated a Powerball last night for $4.00 on our $10.00 bet. We posted a set of 50 Disimulated Powerball numbers on the LP Predictions Board. The first 5 postings were our plays last night; might change it up a bit in our selections. Gonna go for it Monday; maybe kick in an extra power play $1.00 for the win. We love being able to choose and play the multiplier. Good Luck everyone.

Oo, gee... $166 Million jackpot by the 12th draw with the $5.00 price tag. On average back when it was $2.00 and the option to add $1.00 for the multiplier, it would have been around $209 Million by the 12th draw. Seems to us, the $43 Million short fall may have disappeared in to that inflationary $50 Million starting jackpot. Got my PB J winning tickets for tonight. Good Luck.
