can't sleep when the jackpots get huge?
do you ever get so excited before a major jackpot draw (the 365 million powerball being a good example) that you literally just cannot sleep?

Powerball Jackpots
I hope the PB Jackpot does win in this draw for a new North American Jackpot annunity record. However, it rolls, it will set a new cash record. How many more times will PB roll and explain?

$420 million of lottery jackpots in two daysReply
The MUSL says they slow the growth of record Powerball jackpots to increase the number of times they can claim a record jackpot, since some players only play when there is a "record," and if Powerball hit a record of $700 million, it would miss chances to have records at $400 million, $500 million, etc. However, what the MUSL overlooked is if they don't take the records away from themselves, Mega Millions will, since MM does not slow the growth of its record jackpots.

PB Jackpots
I think PB will roll this Saturday. It'll set a new North American jackpot record of 365 million. Do you think PB will roll for this Saturday (poll)? If so, do you think it will reach 365 million or between 340 and 365 million? Explain why or why not.

Highest State Lottery Jackpot?Reply
Doc,As big as MegaMillions and PowerBall jackpots get, I've read posts by LP members from those states complaining about the need for a Nation lottery to compete with the Euro Millions lottery. No matter the jackpots size of any game, some will say it not big enough.

Record $150 million Euro Millions lottery drawing FridayReply
Good luck to you Big Cozy. Since you're in the UK, you won't have to worry about IRS unless you're a US citizen. I'm actually in the US and have no plans to move so I don't worry about big jackpots in Europe because I know MegaMillions or PowerBall will have large jackpots sooner or later and I'm willing to pay the taxes if if win.

Another MM Winner @$15mReply
Congratulations to Ohio on winning the MM jackpot. CA had 3 different jackpots won in a row: A $315 million jackpot by themselves, a $35 million jackpot shared with MI, and an $88 million jackpot by themselves three draws ago and the last draw in 2005 before it was snapped by Ohio in last draw. I think this pattern will end for MM with another 100+million jackpot after three straight jackpots under 100 million. If no one had hit the MM jackpot, it would set a new low under the new matrix of $22

Michigan Double JackpotReply
Well Ok. I'll give this topic a rest. I hope Mich gets some kind of game with two jackpots. I can come up with all kinds of game ideas but I guess nobody else likes the idea of two jackpots for the same game.

one billion dollar jackpot!!Reply
I also think it could happen....but like everything else it wont be worth 1 billion by the time it gets here....it wasn't to long ago when jackpots of 50-80 million used to hit the news.....now its jackpots of 200-300 million before it's mentioned....15 years from now it will probably be 700-900 million....after that they'll probably raffle off a state for you to win. (San Antonio, Johnson)....LOLOL!
