Winning Mega Millions lottery ticket sold in CincinnatiReply
So near and yet so far. Finally, an Ohio megajackpot in the sw of the state. Just 10 miles away. I lived in MO and 2 powerball jackpots hit 1 block away from me in opposite directions. Come on lightning, right here. No, here.

A new PollReply
I would agree it would be way to difficult to do that for mobiles especially since you can go right back to when this website launched. Only thing I would like on the mobile page is current jackpots since many websites aren't condusive to mobile web browsers and I just need to know if games rolled or not. As for the current threads I just use the active topics on the side of the home page.

FL Lottery at $82,000,000Reply
There's a unofficial rule of thumb we have down here in regard to jackpots that go over $50 million. It's going to be hit by multiple tickets every time. If you can get a $40 million or so jackpot it's probably yours alone unlike this one that will have at least two winners.............

WOW ! winning jackpot system at last!Reply
The odds of matching 3 in MegaMillions is 1:306 so normally I would expect to match 3 with 35 lines 11.5% of the time. Winning any jackpot would pay 25X+ what I made working 35 years, so I don't wait for those $200M+ jackpots to play.

13 State Employees to Share $224 Million Powerball Lottery JackpotReply
The powerball results for 2005 are a phenomenon in the same sense that the sun coming up in the morning is a phenomenon. The only thing special about a bunch of lottery officials getting their panties in a twist is that it gives us some insight into how they think (or don't think). As near as I can tell what we learned was that they don't understand the probability that their game is based on, and/or that their interest in what gets paid out is strictly a function of their interest in what comes

Powerball Back-to-Back Jackpots Set RecordReply
Sure, the truth is out there, but what's your point? Simply having that queston in the FAQ proves that Uncle Jim is right about how many people are clueless. Where have you ever seen the FAQ other than on the website? How much was spent last year promoting the jackpot with the anuity amount and how much was spent on promoting the FAQ and the truth? The thing that PB officials are best at is promoting their game, and they apparently have no shame about how they do it, and that's Uncle Jim's

is powerball really worth it?Reply
Lottomike, I remember back when Powerball got hit every other week, you were wishing you lived closer to a Mega Millions state. The game isn't THAT much harder to win than it was before they added the two balls, but at least the jackpots won are now more appropriate for the odds than when it was getting hit every other week.

is powerball really worth it?Reply
Since I don't play PB or MM, I really don't care. I much prefer jackpots I have a chance of winning versus those with astronomical odds that ligtning would have to strike me twice, then run over by a city bus, and, finally, be beaten with a cane by a blind senior citizen just to come close.

First Time Ever PB/MM & Texas 2 Step
Wow get this, Powerball, Mega Million and Texas Two Step all hit a new record. With Powerball and Mega Million it's the first time the two consecutive jackpots have surpassed $200 million. And it s the first time the Texas Two Step has reached $2 million. Like the old saying goes When It Rains, It Pours .

Powerball Back-to-Back Jackpots Set RecordReply
I'm happy that PB continues to roll, but also set a new milestone for having two $200+ million jackpots in a row. I hope that PB continues to roll until someone hits a jackpot around 375 to 389 million.
