I have played the red Powerball no. 18 or the past almost six years. I won $4 on Wednesday. Now looking forward to the next Powerball that has now ballooned to $222 million, come this Wednesday.

If you mean one individual winning both Jackpots in the same week I think that would definitely be the BIGGER story. I am no mathematician but the odds of accomplishing that in a lifetime much less the same week must be astronomical to the 4th power.

I wonder what would be the bigger story, being the sole winner of a record 700+ million jackpot, or winning both the mega millions and powerball 100+ million jackpots in the same week.

This is a huge prize! If I will win this prize I will travel around the globe for sure. However, I will still save for investments. Back to my game I need to play smart today.

if the only reason is damage control, then why is only California doing it? The other states aren't worried about damage control

Comment #27

Ronnie316 — Thu, 02 May 2013 21:54:03 GMT

Damage control........

One person buying the winning PB ticket 100 times, ($200.) could set them back $100 million.

Good luck to the people participating in this game. I'm writing the winning numbers of Powerball after my California Super Lotto Plus contract expired on Saturday April 6th, 2013. What do you think about my comment

I just looked up what Parimutuel means.

It's what I call a chickensh*t system designed so they never have to deal with a shortage to pay the winners.

TN does the same thing with it's Tennessee Cash game.

CA has a huge problem funding massive pensions for their government workers and politicians so they can retire in lavish luxury though.

TN is just chickensh*t.

rock_nc — Thu, 02 May 2013 18:06:44 GMT

By law, California awards all prizes on a pari-mutuel basis, meaning the prizes will change each drawing based on the number of tickets sold and the number of tickets that won at each prize level. Why does this happens only in California?

Anyone know why

Thanks for rubbing it in my face, seeing that I'm from Michigan and a Wolverine fan. I have to give it to Louisville though they were good.

That's my plan as well Win$500Quick. Saving my money for Mega Million. Plan to purchase just 1 powerball ticket. If I can't win with one that one then surely the 5 extra tickets will not help. Maybe I just need to visit the nearest liquor store in Pcola it worked for the last powerball winner. Get me some will Irish Rose or Thunder Bird and a quick pick to boot.

Thanks for reminding me. I like to watch at play-off time.

I had lots of fun watching KY win the NCAA Final.

Time for the big boys to run the court.

Its not unusual for those who believe in playing the lottery to foretell part of the draw.

This was weird , I had played 10 as the powerball # and in my sleep I was like snip the number is 18, should've played that. This was before I actually looked at the results though so I have no clue why I knew the number

$191 MILLION: Huge Powerball lottery jackpot teed up for Saturday drawing

Lottery Post — Thu, 02 May 2013 12:30:01 GMT

By Todd Northrop

There was no jackpot winner in the Wednesday night drawing of the multi-state Powerball lottery game, causing the grand prize to increase to an estimated $191 million for Saturday's drawing.

Saturday was the 9th consecutive Powerball drawing without a jackpot winner. The jackpot run started April 3 as a $40 million jackpot.

The estimated cash value for the new jackpot is $124.7 million. After-tax cash and annuity prize amounts are reported state-by-state on the Jackpot... [ More ]
