Winning the Jackpot...Reply
Look at how wonderfull the current record holder has been doing and he was in his 50's or 60's when he won and was worth more than a million when he bought the ticket. Maturity is not something that comes with age or income at time of purchase.

How high will Powerball get this run?Reply
I have a better idea for the 25 million dollar cap - the cap should apply to the CASH VALUE option!! That would make it easier to break the $363 million record annuity jackpot.

$250M lotto mystery is talk of RutherfordReply
The first thing lottery officials will do once a winner comes forward is check to make sure that the ticket is real and that it's held by its legitimate owner, he said.That should take about 10 minutes. The ticket is real or it's not real. The ticket info matches the computerized record or it doesn't. I would imagine the officials have already printed the computer info and are waiting to match it. I also imagine they have a copy of the video tape of the purchase.

How high will Powerball get this run?Reply
Yeah a cap of 25 million dollars per roll over isn't right! If the sales where higher and the roll over warrented a higher amount to be posted, that's what should be posted. 19 rolls is the record for PB MM (I think that's what I saw on another thread somewhere on here).

I see it getting to around $250m, no higher than $300m. I hope I'm wrong, I'd like to see a $450m jackpot! I think a record setting jackpot in either PB or MM will do good for advertising and marketing the games. It will raise the amount of players, and thats a good thing.

GA's recent hits w/ front22-back23 filterReply
Sorry about that, lottaloot. I've tried to explain what I'm doing in this thread:https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/119736.htmThis filter has a pretty good track record....(has worked for 18 out of GA's last 21 drawn singles).....for successfully eliminating about 30 of the 120 possible boxed 6 ways. At least, that's what I've observed from tracking GA Combined's drawn singles and pairs.I've listed in my blog the more likely singles I'd consider choosing from tonight, after Saturday night's 0

How big do you think MM will get?Reply
As I see it, if it rolls one more time the jackpot will reach 400M. I'm expecting a HUGE jump if no one wins this Friday because it will possibly be a new record, so all the media outlets will be reporting it, causing all of the none players will play. All of the good people of Cali will come out in mass and people in non mega states will make runs to mega states to buy tickets. So a 400M jacktop is quite possible. 24 more hours and we all will know...

Currently Online
On the Lotterypost home page, there is a box that details the number of users currently on the lotterypost website. Right now it's hovering at 400-450, twice the usual, because of the huge Mega Millions pot.Does anyone else watch this box? I love it! It would be nifty to see a record for not only the most users at any one time (1,819 during the $294m jackpot last year), but also for the most during any 24-hr period.
