$675 MILLION: POWERBALL SETS ALL-TIME LOTTERY JACKPOT RECORDReply
In previous, related threads, I've harped about MUSL estimates sometimes falling short; not honoring the advertised jackpot amount. However, in this instance, it's near certain all MUSL estimates will be lower than actual. As others have already said, $800 million annuity is looking realistic. Not sure about $1 billion though. Could happen, but likely the jackpot is going to fall a bit short unless many casual players wager far heavier than they have in past record PB runs. Ie. instead of

Should Camelot Pay These "Jackpot Winners"?
So British grandparents thought they had won 34.5 million pounds but the purchase of the ticket didn't register until after the cut off time. If you haven't heard the story, here's the summary: When Edwina and David Nylan tried to buy a ticket using a UK lottery app on their phone, they got a notice saying they didn't have enough funds in the account to make the purchase. They added the funds and the sale of the ticket went through.The app confirmed the buy was made before the deadline. The 6

Are you ready for the attention?Reply
ROFLMAO. Come on Lejardin. That JP is mine. I have to say, both Gloria AND her son have done an extraordinary job staying out of the limelight and the press, and considering that she's the largest individual PB winner ever, that says a lot. So I think a $1B winner will be okay eventually if they are smart. PB was stupid to not have learned from MM. Sales are still down for both and there have been no record breaking JPs. Idiots. I want to see a 3rd game with REALLY awful odds. But wi

Need help with studying the lotteryReply
There's a simple method for getting better at the lottery: record what you are doing and why and then check your work after the draw. I use a regular school notebook that I bought for 69 cents. I just go through my normal process of picking numbers, but every time I make a decision I jot down a quick note. Something like -- eliminate all numbers with skips over 11. Don't play 2 'cause it just hit 3 times in a row and it is unlikely to hit 4 times in a row. Play more even numbers, since the

PA Lottery Proposed Play at Pump Will Accept Credit CardsReply
you are correct Crazy wombat thanks for catching that- its 600 or less. And yes anything over that is taxable wins by the feds. So if PA does go by way of credit deposits, a record will be kept and you can pretty much be guaranteed Uncle Sam will expect his lions share. Just thought of something....If they are promoting Group pools, then that one person will get nailed if they are the ones buying the tickets thru the Gas Pump for the group....Something to think about for those that are s

Hi Sonnet and thanks for posting your opinion. ALL opinions are welcomed and that is why this was started because MANY people were starting to see the inconsistencies and were looking for a way to share what they see happening. Other items posted here by me have come out of conversations that I have had with long time veteran players that say they cannot hit anything now days like they use to. The common denominators within the past year are 1-off and sum-it-up, both new play types to generate r

money is tight .... the story of my life. Well for the record, and what it's worth, I aint zackly been doin' too good on Mass Cash. I roared over there, blew 90 bucks to play Mass Cash for a month (3 lines for 30 days) and now I cant play T5. (Well, I could, but I aint cuz I promised myself that I wouldn't) That said, I got my eye on The Pennsylvania Millionaire Raffle that is set to go off on Oct 31st. I'm gonna buy some tickets for that, but they don't count cuz I was gonna buy 'em ev

In lotteries, lucky numbers will only win you lessReply
CT It will hit eventually will set a major record..... But how come in another ostensibly random roulette game, that black or red haven't hit 50 times in a row? Have to be willing to be lucky Eddessa_Knight

$301 MILLION: Huge Powerball jackpot on tap for this weekReply
This is probably the last jackpot that will have a reasonable shot at setting an all time record. When the odds change, sales will fall, as they have done with the Megamillions. Probably it will take more than 25 rollovers, 3 months for the jackpot to get large again. This number of rollovers becomes increasingly unlikely. For example, .95 raised to the 25th power gives only a 27% probabilility of occurring, and given that the odds of rollovers can fall to 85% or less, well, large jackpots wi
