You are so right - lol. My thinking is though more winners in PB could mean the game may get to you or I a lot quicker. Can you imagine if PB maintains this average of TWO PER MONTH?

Original Blog Entry: Powerball versus Mega Millions: The Real Match Up

rad242 — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 15:03:08 GMT

So the hype it at an ALL TIME HIGH now that the Mega Millions Jackpot now stands at a whopping $290million. Very few comments are being made about the Powerball which just made a millionnairre of some lucky lad or lady out of New Jersey.

Now the New Powerball Game promised BIGGER jackpots and MORE winners and I would like to explore this for a moment. While we may not have seen the BIGGER jackpots outside of the first win for the year, we must admit we have seen MORE winners. In fact over the last three jackpot wins it hasn't rolled over more than twice awrading $70m, $60m and another prize of $70m just last night.

I think this is something worthy of note particularly if at the end of the year a comparative analysis shows that the Powerball made 2 to 1 or even 3 to 1 MORE Millionairres than the Mega Millions.

Big jackpots build hype and momentum, but as history painfully shows time and again, it's likely that only ONE PERSON will win and then the rest of us will be buried in a glass of Jack Daniels.
