On December 24th, 2004, I selected my most loyal players and started another Lottery Pool.  This one is slightly different.  There are eight of us, and we put in $10.00 a month.  It's always due by the 15th, since we all get paid on the 15th. 

This club started out as the Texas Two-Step Club, and we won a lot of money the first few weeks, but then it petered out nothing.  So, I Christmas Eve, I renamed the club: Die-Hard Lottery Club.

The only way to get into the Pool is to for someone to drop out.  And since I've been doing this since Christmas Eve, that is not likely.

Well, I have ventured out and got us more tickets.  As of this Monday, we will have one ticket in Cash Five.  We have two tickets in Texas Two-Step, and five tickets in Lotto Texas.  And as of Friday we have one ticket in the Mega Million Game.

I shied away from buying Mega Million Tickets, because I already have a club for that Lottery.  By mistake I took some of our winnings and was buying more tickets, when purchase the one Mega Million ticket.

To make matters worse, the one ticket I purchase was NOT a quick pick, it was one that one of my members selected.  I forgot we have the same number in my Mega Million Pool.  If we should win on that number, both my pools would win.

That should be interesting since all eight of my players in Die-Hard are also players in the Mega Million Lottery Pool.

And if I could somehow buy Power Ball tickets we would do that, too!
