$1.7 BILLION: Will Powerball create a Christmas billionaire?Reply
Curious if anyone saw any news coverage of where the winning ticket was sold? Looked up Arkansas lottery and they won't be in the office until Monday. I'm with KY Floyd on holding off until the jackpots get up there. Now will transition to Lucky 4 Life and Cashball 225 as well as dabbling in Pick 3. All are non RNG, be that as it may.

Florida's Fantasy 5Reply
What's earnings value ? Never heard that term used when discussing or reading about the lottery. Are you talking about earnings value from a players perspective or the lottery's perspective as it relates to running their business? Reduced jackpots are a direct result of reduced ticket sales. It's very hard for me to see how the Fla Lottery gets higher earnings value when they aren't selling as many FF5 tickets as they used to. G5

Both until $5 when jackpots were above $250m . But 'both until $5' is not a choice.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
It seems to me as though it could be a combination of risk/reward ratio and a money management technique that every player *should* have for themselves. 1 Ticket for x jackpot amount, 1 ticket for 5x amount, 1 ticket for 10x amount, 1 ticket for 100x amount, etc... 1 Ticket total per try, 5 tickets total, 10 tickets total, 100 tickets total etc... It is certainly up to each player to decide what amount is acceptable for their risk/reward ratio and money management goals for them to join

I'm the same scenario as you. Twenty years. Same numbers. Winning next to nothing. I'm about to give it up myself. I used to get excited when jackpots where high. Now nothing. I'm not even hyped up about the mm jackpot now. I'm hoping someone on here hits something worth talking about. To restore some of my faith. ....But I'm gonna quit rambling on. Good luck man! And to anyone else playing. Good luck to you to.

620,000 Montana Lottery Montana Millionaire raffle tickets sell out in 6 hoursReply
No one on this board has the energy to talk about Mega Millions jackpot buildup? I do and I will. The jackpot started on July 1, 2025 over 4 months ago. Only 14 million tickets were sold for Tuesday's drawing meaning that only 5% of the possible numbers were covered roughly by definition. Jackpot odds are 1 in 290,472,336 I have been saying here that raising the price to $5.00 per ticket would negatively reduce sales by a lot and that is exactly the case. I am just guessing, but by

I haven't looked at any of the MM jackpots that are over $1B and over 30-31 draws in the history books.... But I will and report back. Good luck to all on your next lottery purchase

Just, if both of the big 2 go to $5, I don't think you're giving your fellow participants enough credit. Folks have been deceived for too long, with promises of bigger jackpots and restarts at a certain dollar figure... Some might sputter and play, I bet the majority wouldn't, until it got to a stupid number, somewhere in the advertised Annuity of $1 Billion range. I am giving the Measly Millions a full year to see if the spending habits change and the players adjust to $5 purchase price. Coming

Montana Lottery aims to prohibit bulk purchases after group takes gamble on $1.6 million jackpotReply
* Some people don't get it. because they think you have to be in a certain State to win. Besides if there were so called hot numbers the jackpots would be won on a weekly basis. *Ever so now then you get a huge jackpot winner coming from a State with a population of less than 4 million persons, and won at a gas station in the middle of nowhere. It's never about the State, hit the numbers everything is Copacetic.
