CA SLP roll challenge 1/11/06Reply
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that CA SLP must have the highest cash value jackpot in the United States.

Probability of a Rollover in Powerball.Reply
The powerball has rolled over and the new estimated cash jackpot is $32M The previous annuity jackpot is $67M. The jackpot reached $28.9M, annuity or 1.3 M more than advertised, meaning they predicted $4.2M less sales than they actually received on the previous drawing. For some reason Powerball seems to be underestimating their prospective sales recently. For the last 3 drawings, sales have been almost constant, within a few tens of thousands of dollars of $14.3M.
