$340,000,000 winner in OREGONReply
I agree delS...hopefully the winner can stay low and enjoy their winnings. I got so sick of tired of seeing Jack-I really think he wanted to see how long he can stay in the spotlight. When the national news heavily covered the granddaughter's death and other problems the family had (didn't he get robbed before or something?), that came to show how much they stuck around after winning Powerball. If I was right, I think the news had stories about them in my area (maybe since KY borders WV) everyda

NY subscription winner a LOSER
One of this morning's front-page stories is about a NY Lotto play-by-mail customer who bought a subscription several months ago. NY still requires the cash/annuity choice WHEN you play, in person or by mail; the choice is binding, despite the 1998 change in IRS rules which led to many states/games allowing the lump sum/annuity choice to be exercised after you win, when it should be made. Anyway, the man chose 26 ANNUAL PAYMENTS . You know the rest. This is actually BAD publicity for the NY Lott

California's 91 Million Dollar Winner
Today I picked up a copy of Lotto People magazine. Interesting article on Patricia Frierson; who won the Ca SuperLotto August 9. Thought I would share a little of the info; as we often wonder if they took the cash and if it was qps or their own numbers.She was a 55 year old widow living in a motel. She was actually waiting for escrow to close on her new town house. Worked 23 years in a chemical processing plant.Using a combination of the same numbers she always bets; she bought five plays- one e

Another high second prize payout for PB!!Reply
I'm not sure what you mean, because the lotteries release 2nd place winner names all the time. I even post some of the new stories here at LP!

The PB winner has not yet filed a claim. Although I later saw the AP article where it said the winning ticket was bought just north of Pittsburgh.

NY Sweet MillionsReply
I like to think it was a super-smart player and not dumb luck, but unless the winner appears on the NY Lottery website in Winners Stories we may never know the details. I've no idea if NYS requires publicity with a SM Jackpot win. They may not require it. If that's the case, and the winner declines any publicity, oh well! I would think the NYS Lottery would want to highlight the fact that there was a multiple SM jackpot winner to help juice up sales of SM tickets. IMHO, The lottery playing p

Mega Millions And Powerball Quick Pick Secret
Most mega millions and powerball winners have won the jackpot or other prizes by playing with the following quick pick machine buttons 1,2,3,4,5 and 10. That's correct whenever you want to play $1, the lottery clerk has to press the #1 button on the machine to generate the $1 quick pick. The same goes for $2QP, $3QP, $4QP, $5QP AND $10 QP. But there is one little problem, whenever you play $10QP either for mega millions or powerball the store clerk might press the #5 button twice
