Same Numbers Win In Several JackpotsReply
I'm sure its possible,but the more numbers that are involved the less the chances will be that they all come up in different lottery jackpots.I hope it happens to me on Mega Millions tonight and Powerball tomorrow night!

Powerball JackpotReply
The only way the pot will roll to $400 million in just two more rolls is if the next roll is to $375 million, because of the share the wealth feature of Powerball that limits increases in record jackpots to $25 million per roll. If the next rollover does not breach $365 million, then the highest the second rollover will go is to $390 million, with the extra cash going to the match 5+0 bonus pool, which also rolls until the record jackpot is won.

Went public too soon?Reply
He shouldn't have went public at all, if he could have avoided it. Our jackpots are never that big, but at least our winners are not paraded like performing monkeys.

When do you need to get a lawyer?Reply
I believe there have been many people who have claimed jackpots big and small without a lawyer and are doing fine. But me personally, If I won something in the millions I would probably hire won.

Running an office Powerball pool is discouragingReply
For lottery prizes other than the jackpots, some states will only make out the prize check to one person and send him the W-2G form for taxes. I've read there are ways to get around that but they probably require the advice of a tax lawyer which might cost more than the taxes on a prize that size.

Question about PowerballReply
I'm not familiar with bestslips or any other gambling services and big jackpots. They say they would pay you, but can you trust a stranger giving you millions of dollars if you won? Me, I don't think I could. And yes you can travel and buy tickets from other states.

Tonight's Fla. Lotto drawing first to let players increase jackpotReply
Hey guys, Long time, no see. Anyway, let me get this straight. Is it kinda like, there will be one drawing of numbers, but for 3 games, one costing $1, one costing $2, and one costing $3? Now if someone matches all 6 numbes on a $2 ticket, but not on a $1 or $3 ticket, do those jackpots still grow?

Paying a jackpot over 26 years is too long of a time frameReply
Sadly the US hasn't joined the rest of the world in lottery jackpots. In Canada, Europe, Australia, etc when a prize is listed as $20M (or in whatever currency) that's what you win. No income tax and the prize is in cash. Too bad we can't import that idea.

Heart Breaker...Reply
Better results on lower tier prizes maybe, but not the jackpot. I know I have been using systems for many years. In fact QP's have netted me more money on jackpot games, mostly because they are the same weird numbers that are usually drawn in jackpots.
