Lottery Pools??Reply
You can't physically exchange the tickets, but you can authorize someone in another state to act as an agent on your behalf to purchase the lottery tickets. It's best to have the agreement drawn up beforehand and notarized in both states, the state in which you reside and the state in which your agent resides. It's best to not have weird conditions, such as the $ 500 million jackpot rule, so that there's less chance for disagreements later on. Have the pool operate on a regular basis (every d

Georgia Lotto group formingReply
You are not getting crap, people are just curious why someone who lives in Georgia that probably have friends, coworkers, neighbors and family members who see him every week and know him well enough to trust him would need to go to a national website to find players to join a lottery pool to play his local lotteries. I would think you aren't the only person in your circle that wants to better his chances of winning by joining a lottery pool. Most pools just collect money to buy a bunch of QPs

Mega Millions Multi-Draw New York News

This is my current problem, and I suspect that many members can identify with this situation.this does happen to a lot of us. in order for you to get all 5 numbers on the same line you need to have one or two things happen. put al

mega millions pollReply
Actually, it's $250,000 not $175,000 when CA joins. I don't think they will split a fixed amount of $250,000, and the actual prizes should statistically average $250,000 per ticket. All set prizes in lottery games are based on the expected number of players sharing in the prize pool, and it is calculated by a formula: odds of winning at particular prize level * % of prize pool allocated to this specific prize level * % of lottery sales returned as prizes = fixed prize amountCurrently applyin

At these new levels, the jackpot will be increased
