      Smooth move smooth. You probably are one of the very few who got even that, with all those low numbers. Congrats on your $7!   Thumbs Up

        This roll means that PB is pretty much dead in the water till MM has won... and will only be rolling minimum rolls... yes?

          Grats smooth!

           
          Max I think whoever wins this Friday will have their family set for a couple of generations. Hurray!

          Let's hope they play a smart game with it beginning Saturday morning, the world could use more lottery success stories. Cheers

              Can someone tell me how Todd gets the new jackpot/cash amount before it is even listed on the main mega webpage?

                 I believe that he has a friend working at a lottery office.

                      That is why Todd is Todd. He is able to see a few minutes into the future, and blesses us with this uncanny gift. Do not question this gift,

                      just accept with gratitude and appreciation. Blue Angel    Yes Nod       Embarassed

                          If my database is correct, two of those numbers haven't hit in over 50 drawings, and both hit tonight?  Wow!!

                          Yea I was playing a couple of cold numbers - hit 3 of 5 but missed the mega!

                            68 matched the first 5 numbers, but not the money ball.  That has to be a record.  Does anyone know for sure?  There had to be a lot of folks playing birthdays to have that many win 250K.

                            Be sassy and be happy.
