Grrrr...so close! I know the fates are aiming for me. It's been a while and the winner hasn't come forward. I hope they didn't lose the ticket! That would suck

Didn't they just change the matrix? How often are they going to do this? I don't like it.

WOW!!! I can't image what they are doing now sitting on a $151 Million ticket. Most likely eating like Kings and Queens!!!

i have been married for 31 years to the man of my dreams

Sounds as if you hit the jackpot 31 years ago! Good luck to you too.

I just found out that Powerball might be making a matrix change pretty soon

I don't know why anyone would want the odds for PB or MM to be any higher, but to each his own, I suppose. I mean, $150 million is more than anyone needs unless the winner is a large pool, which it has been on occasion.

congrats to the winners..........

I just found out that Powerball might be making a matrix change pretty soon if its approved by all the participating states. The odds are about to get higher than they are now. Well thats what I read on the South Carolina lottery website in the minutes from the Oct. 4, 2007 meeting. According to the minutes the 2nd prize amount would change also. They want to compete more with the Mega Millions game and produce higher jackpots. A matrix change will also guara... [ More ]

I'm not sure, but according to the official Powerball site, the total was $151.9 million. I've never seen MUSL overestimate like that before.

I doubt the winner will complain after all it was just a guesstimation

Winning $151M Powerball lottery ticket sold in Rhode Island

Lottery Post — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 16:35:16 GMT

One lucky person from Rhode Island is holding the winning ticket from last night's $151 million Powerball drawing. Lottery officials aren't sure who the lucky winner is yet.

Donald J. Cataldi, a sales manager for the Rhode Island Lottery, confirmed that the winning ticket had been sold at Warren Mart on Child Street.

Someone's going to have one heck of a Christmas, Mr. Cataldi said. Rhode Island players have been lucky lately. We had a million dollar player a month ago.
