Do some number combinations have better odds?Reply
Yes it will greatly increase your odds. In fact, when you successfully remove half of the number pool you have eliminated around 97.4% of the combinations.

First to 100 millionReply
Actually, I think the Mega Millions cash jackpot is growing faster than the Powerball cash jackpot, and if the PB cash jackpot reflected actual sales now, Mega Millions cash would be higher, and the annuities would be about the same. PB only grows faster at this point because of its guaranteed $10 million rollovers. I predict that even if Powerball has no winner, its jackpot won't increase by more than $10 million per draw until at least next month.

Do some number combinations have better odds?Reply
No, it isn't. That's called ignoring the reality of the difference between long term and short term. Sure you can win in the short term, but you can't increase your odds. The difference between the two is that I can assure you you will lose in the long run. I cannot assure you you will lose in the short run, because short term variance can cause you to be on the winning side. That's not changing the odds (even in the short term) that's getting lucky within the odds. If y

As soon as he heads back from spending about $7,000,000.00 on his Hawaii Vacation, he will sign the bill which does increase taxes on people earing $40,000.00 and up...and which also only increases revenue 630 billion over 10 years. Basically it was theatrics...

Ga. Team Players Post Pic 4'S HereReply
They must be to trying to increase revenue for GA5 game. All the good numbers that I play in C4 coming in GA5 now all of a sudden- 45678, 11114, 12217,69669, 06660, etc. We can't even get 4567 in C4 but 45678 'randomly' falls in GA5 ? Yeah, right, Lol.

If MM rolls over...
Driving upset in the lottery community, the Mega Millions Jackpot rolled over but did not increase in annuity value. In fact the cash value was reduced by 100k. There is much speculation as to why this proved so but no one seems to be happy about this rare occurrence. If it rolls over, what do you think the annuity value will be?

MUSL: We have identified the glitch!Reply
The glitch question is about why MM is sand bagging and only starting at $12 million and now refuses to grant an increase in the face of fierce opposition from the lottery playing community at large.......

Mega Millions - No Winner, JP Stays At $12MReply
I guess Mega Millions has no guaranteed minimum rollovers like Powerball does. Up until this year, I thought Mega Millions had to increase by at least $2 million for every draw there is no winner. To compete with Powerball, and taking into consideration Mega Millions' annuity is paid in equal installments, as opposed to the graduated installments Powerball pays, in addition to its $1 ticket price, as opposed to Powerball's $2 ticket price, Mega Millions should up its opening jackpot to $16 milli

That could be.... And people also buy a lot of scratcher's as gifts and stocking staffers. I have to admitt Im a little bewildered at the lack of increase in the anticipated jackpot for Fri. night and was hoping some type of news story would come out, or perhaps an explanation from the brass over there at MUSALAUSALASAULASAUSALUASASLAUASASALULSALSAULA and company.????????????????????????????
