Powerball or Mega MillionsReply
More sales = Faster growth, PB will be first. That's the rational conclusion. The higher odds mean that MM has a slightly better chance of making it past any particular amount, but the typically greater sales for PB means it's probably more likely to happen first. Of course for both games it's more likely that the jackpot will be won sooner until we get to about $500 million. Right around 200 million tickets is what's required for a 50% chance of a winner, and right now selling another 2

Pennsylvania: 11/1 - 11/30/2018Reply
I just wanted to add a thought....No matter how much I try not to take into consideration all the combos that happen with the W/BALL. It only defeats my winning . Today for example my qp was 099 and I added the wild ball. If I did not do that i would have had a non factor ticket. So in order to increase my winning potential I have to include all the combos in my deduction factor...another thing I noticed that the w/ball combinations are a pre-cursor as to what my roll in the coming months.

Thank you Increase and Blackie. Hope you were able to cash in too. I'm looking for 281 combo tonight.

Increase has 888 in their Month list, too. I'm not a huge fan of 888, but it certainly has interesting Sync and Backcheck workups for today. I'm going to play 888 Day and Night for fifty cents. Good Luck!!! P.S. The number that 888 has been syncing with is 775 (at 24/25 days), so if you have a connection with 775 from October 15th, that's what I'm looking at.

$750 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot surges to 4th-largest everReply
This is from the MM site: Most states offer a Megaplier feature to increase non-jackpot prizes by 2, 3, 4 or 5 times; it costs an additional $1 per play. Before each Mega Millions drawing on Tuesday and Friday nights, the Megaplier is drawn. From a pool of 15 balls, five are marked with 2X, six with 3X, three with 4X and one with 5X. This mix results in the following odds for each of the Megaplier numbers and their associated prize values: I don't know where the $423,000 amount comes from,

You just won a huge lottery jackpot! Now what?Reply
Jade, not sure where you saw that increase. MM home page still shows $904 Million Cash... Also went to the TX lottery site and that says $904.9 Million Cash. http://www.megamillions.com/ https://www.txlottery.org/export/sites/lottery/index.html

Mega Millions sets world record with $1.6 billion lottery jackpot for Tuesday drawingReply
It really depends on how many tickets must be sold to get $600 million increase and they haven't sold enough. MM is up against a game that's usually more popular and will keep waving its own huge jackpot in front of players until after MM sales stop. The person in front of me at the gas station asked for PB tickets. And there was a sign showing both cash value jackpots over the machine.

Hi, Have not tired Gail's guide but I am using a similar wheeling system and it does increase the odds as you can choose more numbers to and get the combinations, for as long as you have some winning numbers in the combo you could win some prizes. Regards,

So, this drawing went from $667M to $1.0B....increase of $333M. How high can this $1.6B jackpot go? I predict $1.77B (which makes the CASH option $1.0B) Good luck to all on the CRAZY LOTTERY TRAIN!

$970 MILLION: Mega Millions ticket-buying frenzy forces new jackpot estimateReply
KY I read on a MM website that .34001 of ticket sales are rolled over to the JP. $2.00*.34001 = $0.68 So for every 1 million increase in the cash value, ticket sales are 1,000,000 / .68 = 1,470,588 RL
