California Mega Millions lottery ticket splitting $395 million jackpot will expire in one dayReply
Maybe the gas station owner printed two tickets by mistake and somehow discarded the other one? It's possible that it's just a coincidence, but the odds for several other explanations are far higher. I once had a clerk somehow print an extra ticket (which they gave to me) by accident and I once had a clerk print 3 tickets because they only thought they knew how to do an advanced draw and just kept trying. I believe one of the people who posted here once said that if somebody dropped play sl

Why Is an Optimal Powerball Strategy Possible?Reply
You're absolutely right, and I do use that approach too but honestly, it only makes up maybe 2 3% of the overall methods I rely on. A bit later, I ll lay out my system in more detail. It s a very structured and comprehensive approach at least, I like to think so. The idea is this: if you make the right choice at each step in a 20-30 step decision-making process, you could theoretically hit the jackpot. But here s the catch it s like walking through a minefield. One wrong move and... well, yo

Quick Pick or Manual PickReply
There was a 100% probability instead of just saying there is no difference or say nothing, you would dance around the question. Just bcuz 2 thangz are EQUALLY POSSIBLE, duzzn't mean the 2 thangz are EQUALLY PROBABLE..!! And why I asked you to explain why the odds (PROBABILITY) against the first and second example are different. So, let'z say for the sake of simplicity, both setz of numberz are for the same Game Of the 694 views, how many viewers other than you, thought Can so

Mega Millions confirms ticket price increase to $5, other changes coming April 2025Reply
OMG! Seriously... Seriously... Really, Seriously... My eyes are rolling up inside my head like a friggin' slot machine. An Authoritarian Imposed Multiplier that Does Not Improve a player's chance of matching any drawn numbers. IMO, the multiplier was introduced because there was no give in just increasing the lower tier prize payouts to reflect the odds of winning. Seems more like a guilt trip payout to make it look like the players are getting more. However, even with the multip

Something absolutely crazy/unbelievable happened in two consecutive Florida Fantasy5 drawings on 61/21/24 and 6/22/24. It has nothing to do with the numbers that were drawn, rather where the winning jackpot tickets were sold. For the evening FF5 drawing on 6/21/24, one FF5 jackpot winner was sold at a Publix (a supermarket chain and the largest retailer of lottery tickets in Florida as measured by volume of tickets sold) at 9359 Sheridan Street in Hollywood Florida. (Not too far from Miami)

will you play the new $5 mega millions?Reply
Not the proposed version in the story...NOPE. I don't like the second prize and the forced Megaplier. $5 is not the deal breaker for me as $1 form when Michigan first started its lottery in 1972 is $7.30 in 2023 according to the official inflation calculator (so at least about $7.50 this year) The Prize back then was $1000000 Which would indicate a second prize of $5,000,000 for a five dollar ticket (2/3*7,500,000). The odds should be better and the megaplier should be an opt

Mega Millions and Powerball offer $1.11 billion in combined lottery jackpotsReply
No one wants these huge jackpots. You may think you do but it is too much money to be responsible for Some people earn 30K a year and are not responsible. It's not about the amount, it's about values and information and knowledge. I can do way more good with 600M than I can do with 1M. I would definitely welcome the reduction in the Matrix and better odds. Hundred of millions of dollars sitting in some investment firms coffers after you win it benefits no one. I am not

Why doesn't following a statistic mean that the numbers that are drawn most often will be seen in thReply
If you see the 1-69 Powerball white balls or 1-70 Megamillions balls as 69/70 unmarked balls, still the balls themselves would follow the same pick patterns by statistics and probabilities. e.g., the ball shown as 1 will still be having a expected average of 1/69 or 1/70 or for that instance all 69/70 balls. The ball marked as 1 even if it is not marked(hidden or masked with a white tape) as 1 will show similar pattern in the game. Many can't accept the fact that odds are way high and en
