Well I got $20 on Megabucks and $10 on powerball for saturday.  After that it is going to go down to $2 on mondays for megabucks and $4 on wednesday and saturday for megabucks and powerball.  Can't afford to high roll the numbers all the time.  So I will just play the numbers that I picked last year and continue to play those lines.  I will hope for a nice score.-weshar75

Well no prize tonight just out of the money again better luck on saturday.-weshar75

Tonight is the lottery drawing for Megabucks and Powerball and around 8:15 to 8:30 I check my tickets.  So I am hoping for a pleasant surprise with a 4+0 or higher winning ticket.  I had 3+0 last drawing so I think I can do better this time.  Maybe even pull off a jackpot under everyone's nose.-weshar75 

Well here in Oregon the lottery only allows you to get 2 weeks at a time for advance tickets or multi-draw tickets.  So that means I will be having to get my new tickets this sunday 5-14-06.  I do not know if I am going to continue with playing both powerball and megabucks.  I would like to play both games but it can be expensive playing all the lines all the time.  I am leaning towards megabucks because I can still win at least $1 million or more and the odds are far lower than the odds of powerball.-weshar75

Well I finally broke into the win column tonight with a 3+0 on Megabucks for $4.  The jackpot rolled to $5.2 million annuity so better luck on wednesday night.-weshar75

I am going to focus on the Oregon Megabucks this week and only play it.  Since it is $5 million annuity or $2.5 million cash.  That is still a $600 thousand payday for me.-weshar75

That is all I got tonight no prize better luck next time.-weshar75

Well Powerball has sunk to a new low.  The cash value to annuity ratio is now under 45% some where in the north of 44.5% of the annuity.  Thank you powerball for all of your work to bend over the purchasing lottery player.  I do not like the back loaded annuity or the low cash ratio.  I will still play because I do not have Mega Millions in my state but you are getting a thumbs down from me.  What it all boils down to is one big crap shoot.-weshar75 

I had all the numbers on my tickets but not on the same line tonight so no prize.  Better luck on saturday.-weshar75

Well I finished with out the money tonight but there is always wednesday.-weshar75

I know that $4.4 million is not alot of money in the age of big jackpot games but once you take the cash option of $2.2 million and then your favorite man the tax man takes half you are left with about $1.1 million in cash.  So If I could get half of that split with my mother that is not that bad.  It will definitely put me in the ahead section on my lottery spending.  A nice nest egg for mom's retirement to start it off.  Come on numbers do not fail me now!-weshar75

Today was get the lotto tickets renewed for the next two weeks.  So I do not have to get any new tickets until the 14th of May.  I figure not to give up on these numbers for awhile and see what they can give me.-weshar75

No prize tonight just like the last 13 years full of misses.-weshar75

Well I got my megabucks ticket and my powerball ticket today for saturday and I hope that I win the big one.-weshar75

That was the theme tonight just enough to get me thinking that I had some lottery money.  Better luck next time.-weshar75
