$1.7 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
It's fine if the pool organizer spends the time on it after work. It's also no big deal if it's a government agency, since they don't do much work anyway LOL. If I ran a small business with a lottery pool, I would make the business a participant. That way, should the pool win the jackpot, the business will get a check that should more than make up for departing employees. $8 million (minus taxes) is a lot of money, but not everyone would quit their job immediately. Some people like their

Texas Lottery Commission abolished, oversight of Texas Lottery transferredReply
My reply to Brock was a tongue in cheek answer. But TLC and TX legislature is making a mess an even bigger mess. They effectively eliminated pool players where typically a person in charge of a pool buys tickets for the other members of the pool. The bill includes new language that prohibits the facilitation of lottery play through an Internet or mobile application, which would, by its description, broadly ban lottery couriers. More specifically, a player cannot order the purchase of a

Office Pool conceptReply
Exactly what I was thinking! I like entries much more than buy-in! Thank you for the idea! As for the concept, you nailed it! Pool prizes are divided up amongst the participants based on their # of entries. Now, let's say hypothetically, I could get this pool really big, and I can offer even an entry for $0.01 per ticket (fraction of a ticket). Of course the prize amount will become that much smaller, but would you rather spend $2 for one ticket, or participate in this pool to get fr

Take5 NYReply
T5 players in New York might be interested to know that there are still four numbers yet to be drawn in June. During most months, all 39 numbers are eventually drawn. (It does happen where a number has zero hits during any given month, but that doesn't happen very often.) Numbers 1, 2, 10 34 have yet to come out in June. It's almost mid month, so my guess is that they'll appear in the next couple of weeks. In my humble opinion, if they do hit, then they're what I call a Free Number . That me

Office Pool conceptReply
I managed an office pool for a few years at a previous workplace. Let me tell you it was a lot of work to run. It was originally me and one other person I shared my office with then another wanted in and another and so on until I think we had around 10 people or so at one point. The way I did it was on payday which was every 2 weeks, each player put in $4 and I bought a mix of Powerball, Louisiana Lotto, and MegaMillions tickets. What I did was I bought multidraw tickets, meaning it covered all

Will Powerball go bankrupt tonight?Reply
I'm predicting at least 2,000 jackpot winners for tonight's drawing I'm predicting that someday your doctor(s) may get the dosages right, but you'll have to actually take the pills. Put the drugs down and back away. It's almost certainly failure to take the drugs that's behind most of his posts. if they draw 1-2-3-4-5 + 6 tonight all that will happen is the jackpot will be split a thousand ways. If they draw 1-2-3-4-5 + 6 tonight what will probably happen is the jackpot wi
