Print more ticket than the jackpot hit rate?Reply
If the odds are they same they dont update it. Look at NYS Set For Life. Same odds two different game numbers lumped together. Then look at a game like 7 11 21. Different odds and payouts so they separate them. So while the overall odds might be the same a buyers have know way of knowing which game number has the most jackpots left.

Recent Winners...
So since there have been recent big winners for both MM and PB what are the chances of any other prizes being won soon? Seems you may have to give both jackpots time to grow. Sure I would be happy with $25 or $40 million but not sure if any prizes are going to be won for a while.

Indiana family claims $536 million Mega Millions lottery jackpotReply
I also would buy a ticket on my Travels when stopping for gas or whatever!! I agree but only when the jackpot is tempting. A few years ago I traveled through several states when one of the jackpots was starting to gain attention, I ended up winning $150 in Florida but I was back in NC when the drawing took place. I ended up mailing the ticket to a friend and she cashed it for me.

$478 MILLION: Powerball jackpot surges into top 10Reply
The Texas Lottery publishes jackpot estimates usually the day before the drawing, KY Floyd tipped me off to the link earlier this week. It provides some stats which you can use to compare with previous PB jackpots too. http://www.txlottery.org/export/sites/lottery/Documents/jackpotestimates/pb20160730.pdf

How about that mega millionsReply
There has been 4 jackpot winners in 5 draws over 16 days (July 8th to July 22nd). It will be interesting to see if the people who only play when it gets up to $250M or so now decide hey, wait a minute! I better play the lower jackpots .. it goes on a tear, increasing the prize by more than $5M each draw that isn't won for the next 2 or 3 weeks. It's happened before. The recent big one went 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 43, but back in January it went 15, 22, 30, 39, 48, 56 in as many drawers last year the

How about that mega millionsReply
LOL I was right! There were even two winners! Tuesdays drawing will be won too, we'll be seeing minimum jackpots in MM for a long time as the matrix isn't tough enough and it's obviously WAY TOO EASY to win. MM should go to a 99 white ball and 50 mega ball matrix!

Florida Scratch Offs - Post Pictures if posibleReply
Sorry to hear bud. Wow, that ticket is really becoming scarce. The game is ending in October of this year, which says something. Still strange 2/8 jackpots are listed as remaining. I think it would be pretty darn hard to miss a jackpot on a $5 ticket, so I'm willing to bet if a jackpot isn't found on this game that it has been tossed/destroyed.
