$700 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot raised just hours after initial estimateReply
I highly doubt there will be another rollover. I guess its possible since the odds have increased so much. But with so many ticket buyers I suspect there may be at least 1 or multiple winners. But yeah IF it rolls over again on saturday?......yeah billion jackpot here we come!!!

$675 MILLION: POWERBALL SETS ALL-TIME LOTTERY JACKPOT RECORDReply
I can't even imagine what will happen if: no one hit the jackpot comes Saturday the likelihood that it will reach $1.x billion or a single hit this next draw, that one person or group of people hit the close to $1 billion 2016 is already a great year!!! retailers with lottery likely hit lots more businesses We all know the odds of hitting the jackpot, so the winner(s) will be the most famous person(s) of the year! The other games may not be played as much for the upcoming days.

Question Regarding The Odds of The Pennsylvania Millionaire RaffleReply
Jade, what are the odds when the tickets sell only to the quarter point and the 4 top winners are in that first 125,000 but they sell 375,000 tickets out of 500,000? I think your answer above has made at least 2 posters happy....now the OP still has the task explaining it.

$400 MILLION: Powerball jackpot surges on rolloverReply
Will take whatever lady luck gives me. That is 5/6 with powerplay :). Since the new change come to powerball there has been lot of draw but the 10x powerplay option has not been added I will just buy 1 or 2 ticks with powerplay options and stick with Megamillions at least odds are okay there. But good luck to everyone buying tickets. Multiple winners will be great.

$400 MILLION: Powerball jackpot surges on rolloverReply
Is this how I calculate the odds that a winning ticket will be sold? (1/292,201,338)x(# of tickets sold) Example (0.00000000342466)x(100,000,000)=.34 or 34%

$334 MILLION: Powerball jackpot rolls into the new yearReply
Advertised annuity would be roughly $1.5 billion before the after-tax cash could be considered fair bet With odds of about 290 million to 1 against, and a $2 ticket price you'd need to net $580 million for an expectation value of 1.0. Figuring federal taxes and a mid-range state tax of 5% the advertised jackpot would have to be about $1.715 billion. I believe that's entirely possible under the current matrix, but there's a major catch. The increases are significantly smaller than they us

Post your scratch ticket resultsReply
in NY some games do have $600 winners, they can be cashed at retailers some games even have $700 and $888 but most do not have $1,000 prizes strangely enough usually jumps to $1,500 or $2k and those odds are usually 1 in 5 or 6 figures even on the big money cards and congrats chris on the gus bucks scunion
