Dry SpellReply
I get the same way. Kind of a full blown panic. But I have a reason. One day I was checking out pick five numbers. And I got this weirdo feeling. That my number was gonna come out for the nite draw. Then got extremely excited then completely exhausted. So I said to myself I'm gonna take a nap. Then when I get up. Ill get some tickets. Woke up and talked myself out of going. Quess what happened? The number hit. I screwed myself outta 80k tax free. I was gonna get 200 fifty cent boxed tickets. Too

Texas Lottery says NJ group tried to buy another Lotto Texas jackpotReply
Driving around looking for food (really I went to my favorite Taco El Acapulco) when. The thought occurred rather than cap the lottery maybe it's time we drew multiple winners and split the pot. Something like once the jackpot reaches 25 million we draw two winning numbers and 50 million we draw 4. Still have the opportunity to take home the whole pot if you are the only winner, but it would dissuade groups from trying to buy a lottery. Maybe we need a poll?

Oregon lottery kept my $1500 winning ticketReply
I heard this for 2026 Starting January 1, 2026, the federal jackpot tax reporting threshold increases from $1,200 to $2,000 I assume this applies since the huff n puff I have played in casinos is a video slot machine. So should not be reported via W-2G. I guess it's up to you on whether you report the earned income. It might be an interesting poll if the $500 Pick 3 Winners report as income. I would expect most people if they itemize deductions would show a gambling loss for the yea

UpVote or Down Vote?Reply
Why start a poll on the topic if you are not bothered by this option? I realize some members are not tech savvy but I am sure Todd monitors for duplicate accounts. I have seen people get down votes of 8 or more. It is the internet. Who has such low esteem to even care about this non issue? Do you all whine when you get a response comment or emoji to something you post online? It is interesting that the men whine about this and the women ignore it. I find it useful but did not even pa

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
I hear ya MsBee.... I always thought it was nice having 2 options at the same price to have the jackpots rise at noticable rates. The MM is a big yawn and isn't creating the interest that it used to just 10 months ago. Look at the increase for the run for the last Billion dollar jackpot that happened last December 27,2024: https://www.texaslottery.com/export/sites/lottery/Documents/jackpotestimates/mm20241227.pdf It got to the $619M Annuity on Tuesday and the next draw skyrocketed to $6

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
The cash value is only running at 10% of what it would be when it was at $2.00 a line. 90% of all other cash jackpots were much higher by this time in the jackpot run. This may be reflective of this poll where nearly 60% are not playing. Has nothing to do with the price of the game. Cash v. Annuity value only depends on the expected return of US 30-yr bonds. The lottery starts with the actual funds they have (=cash value) and then advertise the annuity multiplying the cash value

Numbers submitting Cutoff TimeReply
This poll doesn't explicitly state, but I assume you are referring to the cutoff time for posting numbers on Lottery Post's Predictions Board ? If so, the cutoff time is one hour before the draw time, in order to prevent people from gaming the system. Many times lotteries tweak the draw times for various games without making a huge announcement about it. So the 1-hour policy protects us from instances where a lottery silently changes a draw time, and since we aren't yet aware of it, our

The Measly Millions has rolled over(#21) once again, which is a good thing for all MM players. The projected new Cash Value increase from the previous draw is $8.6 Million. That is down from the previous increase of $8.8 Million on 5/29/26. *See attached link for Cash Value increases/decreases. Numbers don't lie folks. https://www.texaslottery.com/export/sites/lottery/Documents/jackpotestimates/mm20260529.pdf With the recent poll taken on 5/08/26, A resounding 80% of voters opte
