Why is it that no one has ever won a dozen or more MUSL jackpots?Reply
Yeah, just like that Joan Ginther who won like $5.4 million on state lotto then went on to win 3 more jackpots on scratch-offs. She has more money to drop than the average joe so she has won more jackpots.

$400 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot explodesReply
I've always preferred Mega Million over Powerball but it looks like Powerball knocked the dust off Mega Millions as the preferred lotto game and LARGE jackpots this year with all these $300M+ jackpots.

What is the ideal amount of money you would like to win ?Reply
That's exactly how I've always described the possibility of winning one of those massive jackpots: scary! I do buy tickets for them once in a while but instead of feeling excited about the possibility of winning, like I do with smaller jackpots, I sort of cringe and worry. Instead of dreaming of what I could do with the winnings, I wonder what sort of personal security measures I'd need to take.

Longest jackpot run ever for Florida LottoReply
With PB and MM starting over, serious lottery players will start looking at local lottery jackpots with similar size jackpots and lots better odds. Florida is not the only state with a jackpot of $40M+ and better odds, Ohio has a $42.9M jackpot with odds of 1:14M.

Who is W.Kolb ?Reply
Serotic and Kolb were involved in forming lottery syndicates so Kolb's jackpots were probably split many ways. I doubt there was any system for picking numbers and more likely groups of combinations with higher percentage chance of winning. They won jackpots when the odds against winning in most lotto games were less than 10 million to 1. It's possible Kolb was part of the syndicate that bought all the tickets in the Virginia Lotto.

Has there ever been 2nd prize winners who went on to win it all?Reply
Yep, no too shabby. Look at the list of Worldwide Jackpots on the left. This CA PB 2nd prize $3M amount is higher than many state lotto 1st prize jackpots, currently would be #22 on the list. (and it's in cash, not annuity)

California Lottery Powerball QuestionReply
Nobody really knows exactly how much money will be in a jackpot pool post-draw. PB MM jackpots, Fantasy 5, what have you; all of the jackpots you see there are just estimates. The difference here is nobody at the lottery estimates what the 2nd prize pool will end up being.

Do you generally play both major jackpots regardless of the amount?Reply
I play whatever is largest. Mega Millions jackpots usually suck, I mean who wants to win just $20 and remain middle class? Besides, MM jackpots don't grow because it's too easy for some players to win. I'd much rather play PB and have a shot at becoming somewhat rich.

$475 MILLION: Powerball jackpot nears a half-billion dollarsReply
With only 5 numbers to match and you get $1 million seems like a jackpot to me. I like the new structure since it generates bigger jackpots. Jackpots are getting higher and higher; I'm sure more and more players are placing their bets. Good luck to us!
