How many numbers you can guess "for sure"?
In my own backtesting for cash 5 power ball and mega millions i found that all 5 or 6 numbers in the next draw will be in the last 15 games of history approximatley 34.5 percent of the time. Just throwing that spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks :)

Will the new three day drawing schedule for Powerball increase the jackpot?
I am not a fan of more draws because the jackpots will grow slower and maybe more winners at lower jackpots is in store for powerball. I think that I will play mega millions until they kill their game and go to more draws too. I have always had better luck with powerball but I want big pots not lower slower pots and less money to win too. Powerball you are stupid and your losing players soon too.-weshar75

Lottery Post Founder Todd Northrop AMA (Ask Me Anything)
It's a great idea. I'd love to hear an explanation of winning the jackpot of either the USA's Mega millions or Powerball ... and how much the additional 'Federal Medicare hi-earner income tax' would be.

I am going to attempt making lots of winnings in the lottery of pick 3 is this a good idea?
The prize-to-odds ratio is much better for the 3-ball than it is for Powerball and Mega Mlllions.
3-ball: Odds 1 in 1000, prize $500 (most states), $1 wager
Mega Millions: 3 white balls + bonus ball - odds 1 in 14,5457, prize $200, $2 wager
Powerball: 4 white balls - odds 1 in 36,525, prize $100, $2 wager
This is why I never play Powerball or Mega Millions, with the exception of a record jackpot being drawn on a major holiday.

NC woman misses Powerball drawing, wins $2 million in the next one
Points well taken...Mega Millions with Megaplier can be a better option it is higher than 2 and can go up to 5. Powerball can have a X 10 multiplier, conveniently for them, that doesn't apply for secondary prizes. Like you said they are all X2 for five numbers.

Why do MegaMillions jackpots grow faster than PowerBall?
Mega Millions is double what powerball is so naturally mega gets the lions share of money put down for tickets. $515 million is a heck of alot more than powerball's jackpot.-weshar75

Alabama lottery hopefuls to be disappointed yet again
No, those two California Mega Millions, one million dollars winners last night do not have to split the money. They each get one million, the money only has to be split if they had won the jackpot. I see the Virginia winner will get two million dollars because of the Megaplier.

California woman destroys $26 million lottery ticket in the laundry
I read a story similar to this several years ago. A guy had a set of Mega Millions numbers he played on a regular basis for years. For whatever reason he missed playing his number for a drawing and the numbers came out. The man's son said his father was devastated and was never able to get over it and now has mental problems

Being in your feelings (when losing consecutively)
I have been chasing the big jackpots since 1996 of Oregon Megabucks and Powerball and Mega millions since 2010 so I know that my tickets are a drop in the bucket. So I stay upbeat about it and now realize that if I win a prize on any of my tickets I get happy because I really only play a little bit at any time.-weshar75

Powerball to increase to three drawings a week
Yes I remember not long after Wyoming joined someone hit the $1M Mega Millions along with the 5x multiplier, so $5M winner. I'm sure they were probably upside down or at least had their reserves depleted for a while.
