If you can pick one number you can win P3Reply
Clipper, perhaps you are missing the point here. The Systems forum is for folks to share and learn about the best systems to use(on the record). If you don't want to share anything that's fine. No one ask. Perhaps you know of another less well known system that you might share that beats the current record holder system.The point is to find a system that everyone can see and might be demonstrated here and beats the current record of 10%. That's what folks want to see. It was an open question fo

Mega Millions was hit tonight!Reply
All of the big jackpots create a spillover effect but they only show up after a couple of draws. Allow me to explain.Normally the jackpot starts at $10 million. This is always a subsidized amount. Ticket sales only support a jackpot of around $3 to $4 million. After a big jackpot, sales support a jackpot of around $6 to $7 million but the jackpot is still offered at a subsidized value of $10 million.Where the spillover effect comes in play is where the jackpot is no longer subsidized. This has o

record...3 straights in 4 days
That's a record for me for Straights ! Three in 4 days. The 876 consecutive this afteernoon made it 3. The others were 059 and 333. Don't know if counting that trip is legal.....as for a 3 straights.LOL That 876 got rid of two long groups that we were waiting on the 67890 wheel and the consecutive straight. I do not think that's the last we will get this wk. Watch the 12345 wheel. It's still out. Here's the history on that old Straight 867 .....1999 :Please notice the month in 1999. He HE Th

who like the cash 5 bonus?Reply
Quote: Originally posted by Bug on December 26, 2002 Was the match 5 bonus even implemented? I am not even sure what a record level is for the PowerBall, but it seems they aren't going to get alot of use out of this match 5 plan? Have they ever had a match 5 draw? Bug,No the Match 5 Bonus was not in effect last night. It is only in effect when the jackpot goes over the previous Powerball record. The previous Powerball record was $295.7 Mil. If you add $25 Mil (the cap) to that you get $320.7 Mil

Remember Powerball's New Rules?Reply

I personally would like to see how this new $25 million cap would work and the extra prize money. Lets hope for lots of $100,000 winners but no jackpot winners. They sold over 50,000,000 tickets last wednesday so it might be hard. If they sell 70,000,000 tickets tonight there is still more than 50,000,000 possible combinations not included the more than one combo fro
