  Worst case is they predict a big win correctly but don't get tickets. For a 5+0 win it wouldn't be that bad but a mega or powerball win isn't going to repeat itself.

  If they predict a big win correctly, the pot will probably be split so many different ways, nobody will be able to retire off it.

  As Konformthismf said on another thread, the odds of winning that Keno jackpot was over 2 mil. to one, so a "jackpot" has been won.
  
  6/49, PB or MM is another story...don't think that will happen on the prediction board...but who knows? I'm hoping so.

  Posted 4/6:  IL Pick 3 midday and evening until they hit:  555, 347 (str8).

  I think the prediction board the way it current is only works for those whom play different numbers for each drawing. I play the same numbers usually until the jackpot is hit. Unless the prediction board has a unlock date for 3 or 6 months I wouldn't post numbers that I'm going to play on the next rollover. For pick 3/4 I don't think it matters but for jackpot games it does.

  Todd talked one time of adding a feature that could hide predictions until just before the drawing so members who wanted bragging rights for their winning predictions but didn't want to share the prize could post but I guess everyone who post don't mind sharing the prize even if it's one of the multi-state jackpots.  So far even the top predictors have not shown a profit over time so I doubt if anyone would play your numbers even if you posted them.

  True, they would most likely just see a continuation of my loosing streak but an unlock date would prevent people from loosing on my numbers.

  I also think tntea's Keno win counts as a "jackpot". But I think that one of these days we will also see someone predict the numbers for a game like Powerball or Mega Millions.
