When was the last time you saw a multi-state lottery jackpot...Reply
Yeah I saw.... Utterly pathetic. So what's the next gimmick they'll try with Powerball? I'm looking for a third messing with the game within 4 years at this rate as the game keeps getting one upped by Mega Millions. I'm sure the roll overs will pick up but it's clear there's not so much excitement for PB. The only reason it's getting into this range so often (is it getting into the 100M range more often than MM?) is they're selling a lot less tickets thanks to the price increase. I know I

Would you share your winning lottery system if you had one ?Reply
I understand your question, and I certainly don't want to be rude, but if I had a winning system I wouldn't share it with people who come on this forum and beg others for a system. I'm not saying that's what you're doing, but trust me, we get that a lot around here. Someone who is fairly new will make a post asking for a winning system. My advice to you is stay awhile....kick off your shoes, roll up your sleeves and get involved. There are plenty of members here who work HARD. They work hard and

48 Philly transit workers win $172M Powerball jackpotReply
Congrats (not really but everyone likes to make like they are happy for others getting lucky winning), BUT this is exactly why I hate lottery pools. You take a huge, lifechanging sum of dough and reduce it to just a nice, little nest egg that requires many younger folk to keep working present job. That $3 mill is about what I would win if I just played and won my state lottery. And folks, that is not $3 mill cash value they won...no it is the annuity value so each will only receive a little over

$500 MILLION: Mega Millions sets all-time lottery jackpot recordReply
scarchelli, Powerball and Mega Millions are frequently won in the same week. Just not by the same person. And as someone already mentioned, for anonymity purposes, it would be a good time to win Powerball. That is, if you can get by on a measly $20 million (after taxes). It sure is going to be difficult to keep this Mega Millions win a secret. But I'll do my best!

Buying More Tickets Does Not Increase Your Odds.Reply
The odds never change Todd. The lottery equation stays the same. Odds of winning mega millions and powerball are 1 in 175 millions. If you buy 2 tickets your chances of winning are not 2 in 175 millions. You have 1 in 175 millions twice. If the odds of winning with two tickets in mega millions or powerball are 1 in 175 millions. You have two tickets each with 1 in 175 millions not 1 ticket with 1 in 87 millions.
