The drawing from last August says otherwise. That one went 430 535 758.7. This one has the advantage of starting $31 million higher, but it's extremely doubtful that's enough to make such a big difference. If we call that $31 million a 10% difference we might see it go from 461 to 580 or 590, but the next jump would still have to be almost twice as big as the one from last August. Even the record JP from 2 years ago only went from 528 to 948.

If it keeps rolling I'd be extremely surprised if... [ More ]

No, they hadn't. Billboards are so much nicer than the old ones.

Will be getting tickets out your way when visit Lake Tahoe, NV and cross the street to play in California next month

They still haven't fixed the $999M problem? Geez, you would think they would have learned by now!

Let's pray for the second BILLION DOLLAR JACKPOT OF ALL TIME

Bleudog101 — Wed, 03 Jan 2018 17:01:38 GMT

That sounds 'doable' to me. KY lottery updated their billboards and I called them out on the fact you still can't put a billion up there. They responded that we were just talking about that and we both laughted.

Can hardly wait for Todd et al to update the lottery postings. Maybe they're being smart and waiting until after tonight's PB drawing.

If MM rolls tonight it goes up to $418 Million and I would suspect there would be a bump before Saturday's Friday's drawing.

USAMEGA has the new numbers for Mega Millions. The Annuity is now $361 million and the Lump Sum Cash is now $225 million.

WOW!! an 83% chance of rolling over to over $400 million. That is a good bet. Thanks KY Floyd

MEGA MILLIONS now up to $361 million

George Stephanopolous on Good Morning America just said the combination jackpots are over $800 million. Guess he needs a calculator to do the simple math.

Maybe he just knew before the rest of us. The news stories reporting the 361 figure seem to have come out just after noon, and that seems to be a common time to post revised jackpots, but maybe the decision was made a lot earlier.

Before the bump I was thinking it was too bad that MM wasn't... [ More ]

Top lottery jackpots of all time and nobody from New York was in that category of top 25 winners ?

Remember John Lisa Robinson from Munford, TN. All they wanted was a small piece of the pie. They won 1/3 of the $1.6 billion PB jackpot on 1/13/2016. A Wednesday night draw. You never know

My dream is to bag the one, and leave the other on the table for someone else. l am not greedy, l can live with either of these jackpots right now.

The Vast Unknown. Will either one reach a billion? Maybe both these runs.

Come on LP Members stop these games in their tracks and win

KY Floyd — Tue, 02 Jan 2018 07:00:41 GMT

I would settle for any amount of money my tickets produce this year that can get me a claim at my lottery office.

I've got great news for you. You're allowed to claim small prizes there, too, so all you've got to do is match the Power or Mega Ball and your wish will come true.

I'm hoping for an amount that can only be claimed at the main office and requires me to wait a bit before getting the check.

Had a good chuckle reading your desire Weshar75, namely to see what the lottery office looks like . I can just imagine you walking in the staff saying Lord Weshar75, this is an unexpected pleasure. We're honored by your presence..

Lord Weshar75: You may dispense with the pleasantries, l'm here to pick up my check

This confirms to me, that 2018 will be an outstandingly prosperous year. I'm a January born person. This will be an incredible birthday gift. To have 2 of them climbing so high, you can't ask for more. Well, to win both is asking for a feat that will live on til life is no more. Good luck everyone.

Powerball and Mega Millions jackpots are both are in top 25

by Todd Northrop

2018 started with near-record cold sweeping across much of the USA, but the nation's two biggest multi-state games couldn't be hotter.

Powerball and Mega Millions have been rising steadily for the past few weeks, with both games' jackpots now at the point where even casual lottery players start to put ticket-buying on their list of to-dos.

After nobody won Mega Millions on Friday and Powerball on Saturday, t... [ More ]
