$500 Million Jackpot!Reply
When you ask these types of questions I wonder why you even bother to put PowerBall on the list. When the jackpot reaches around $350 million they cap it at $25 million increases. This means after that point you will need 6 more drawings to reach the $500 million mark. Odds of that are really really slim. Mega Millions will take at most 3 drawings after the $350 mark to the $500 mark. This is possible especially with the sales patterns of lately. Time will tell but I believe it will happen

Three scratch ticket players eligible for $1 million drawingReply
That would complicate things. Maybe people should share tickets only for Mega Millions or Powerball.

MD'S Mega Millions Challenge 9/30Reply
Retxx, since mega millions was drawn last night, I'm assuming these are for powerball, in that case also the powerball numbers only go to 42.

next 8 pb jackpotsReply
If it happened in the Big Game (Mega Millions) when the odds were only 76 million to one, it could happen in Powerball.

Texas Lottery jackpot game tickets in sales declineNews Story
Citing plummeting revenues that indicate a jackpot fatigue in state lotteries throughout the nation, the chairman of the Texas Lottery Commission challenged the organization's staff to consider boosting Lotto Texas sales by making the game more creative. Why can't we do something creative for a change making it a $4 million jackpot and two Harley-Davidson motorcycles or a Corvette or one of those fancy trucks? said Chairman C. Tom Clowe Jr. Let's create some buzz. Let's give $4 million and

MegaPlier and Mega Millions

When I was in Wisconsin I played 5 tickets each with the PowerPlay option instead of otherwise buying 10 tickets. I could see the states caring about losing those tickets sales but you will make them up with their ext

Megaplier Petition....
Guys, i am not in favor of the megaplier petition to multiply one's own winning on megamillions....Guys, how greedy can you get.....The starting point of mega millions whether is 10, 12 or 15 million is still a lot of money...Why would you want to multiply it.....There is even comment that there are people who would not play the game unless the jackpot surpasses the 50 million dollars...Just how greedy are people...That's why they never win anything...To me, 3 million is a lot of money....and 10
