I think you mean moot point. No blueballz, I meant moot point.

jamella724 — Mon, 19 Aug 2013 09:11:54 GMT

I think I'd better purchase two or three tickets for this game, with huge jackpot prize at stake I need to increase my chances of winning. I already made plans if I will win this huge jackpot prize. I will make investments and definitely share my blessings to other people.

I think it would be great to see the two winning $425 Million dollar tickets posted here, after the win of course! I will do the same. Isn't it ironic that we must both have the same winning set of numbers

I've got my tickets. Mom and dad bought some tickets with me too, that would befun to win with them :)

And my friend and I each bought a quick pick together, so in total that's 6 tickets.

Hey Ronnie, I got your numbers covered here in Cali.

OK, so...nobody else can play these numbers in Cali, alright? Otherwise you'll just reduce my pari-mutuel prizes.(and your own...)

I still need to find an elderly person and cut in line in front of them for some quick picks.

I was wondering if it was going to increase. And with 32hrs more till the drawing, It will probably raise even more I bet.

LottoLucy — Tue, 06 Aug 2013 18:33:21 GMT

YAY! Just checked and they added $25 million to the annuity value making it $425 million annuity and $244.7 million cash.

I'm winning tomorrow night!!!! When I went to Publix last night after I walked thru the main door, and into the enter door, the guy that was behind me used the exit door and beat me to the customer service counter! He didn't buy tickets tho, he was there for something else and was only about 45 seconds (about the same time that it is consumed buying quickpicks

nitro77 — Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:09:51 GMT

Just for the record:

Is there any way to claim the Jackpot in Florida anonymously for example via a trustee or something? Google says you must claim in person.

I know you can cover yourself at the photo with glasses, fake beard but when the whole world knows your name it's not that good.

In Europe you can allways claim anonymously the Euromillions, which I think is the way it should be. Of Course some stupid British couple went to the press after winning 185 Millions Euro... [ More ]

I don't know about that one but Virginia has the $50,000 SUMMER CASH BASH promotion going until September 2nd.

You get an entry ticket when you buy $10 worth of Powerball or MegaMillions.

There's a drawing every 2 weeks in which 20 people win a $500 Visa Card.

And in the final drawing on September 3rd, someone will win the $50,000 and all the entries remain eligible for that.

I love the Virginia Lottery.

Some folks are standing near the counter and telling lottery tickets buyers to go ahead. They're hoping someone buys the winner and they can claim they cut in front of them. They figure the chances of that happening are a lot better than them buying the winner and a lot cheaper too.

Please call your state lottery office (or email) and tell them. They need to figure out if the machine is malfunctioning, or if the cashier is nabbing the tickets for themselves, and fix it.

Comment #183

HoLeeKau — Mon, 05 Aug 2013 21:37:33 GMT

I splurged and bought 5 lines (on one ticket) yesterday because I found a lucky penny in the road.

Today my fortune cookie said You will have some wonderful new experiences. Well, I've never won a jackpot before, so I'm SURE that's what the new experience will be!!! So I bought another single QP based on that promise.

Comment #173

KY Floyd — Mon, 05 Aug 2013 17:43:28 GMT

No. As a practical matter it's virtualy impossible for every combination to be played. The more combinations they use the lower the chances of the next ticket using a combination that wasn't already used. If all combinations were generated randomly, selling 90% of the combinations would requires selling about 400 million tickets, which is well beyond the current sales record. If they did manage to sell 90%, only 1 out of every 10 sold after that would be an unused combination. Since combinations... [ More ]

With the lump sum cash it drops to $230,300,000 and then take out 25% federal taxes at the time of claiming drops it to $172,725,000 and of course take out the state tax briinging it down to $164,894,800 (Indiana), plus the additional end of year federal tax of 14% plummeting it to an approximate of only $134 MILLION in my pocket.
