You may have been looking at the wrong game. Mega Millions has the number 4 Mega number drawn just twice in the last 15 drawings.

5x was the Megaplier. One ticket, purchased in NJ matched 5 of 5 and had the Megaplier for a cool $5 mil cash prize!

It seems that 5x comes out a lot too with mega.

Hopefully by being on the Lottery Post it has given all of us an insight to the rights and wrongs of what to do when hitting it big.

Most of us, I hope, would know what needs to be done and don't make the kinds of mistakes that those who have been fortunate enough to win, but not smart enough to get advice on how to keep what they won and not lose it all.

If you won $5 mil and made mistakes in handling the money, yes it would melt away quickly. Winning more and losing it just means that yo... [ More ]

Although there was no jackpot winner in last night's Mega Millions drawing, there was one 5 of 5 winner in Ohio that had paid an extra dollar for the Megaplier and won $3 mil.

That's a nice amount to receive for a $2 purchase price

But no matter how big the odds are and how unlikely to win, you still have to be in it to win it and will never have the slightest chance unless you buy at least that all important ONE ticket.

Like the NYS Lottery says..... Hey, you never know

I'm in MM and PB every draw with one ticket.

I also play All or Nothing often for $4, playing the same numbers twice to win $500,000. That would pay off the mortgage and other debt.

Sometimes, but not very often I'll play the same AoN numbers 5 times trying for $1,250,000. Odds are 1 in 2,704,156. But....the cost is $10.

That would be interesting.

However, it would have to happen much more often to get me to play for lower JPs on a regular basis again.

I had at least 1 line for every draw for over 17 years and never won more then $4 and that's w/ the MP

For me it would have to happen so often MUSL would be forced to increase the matrix...which may happen anyway.

I'd rather play CFL and LFL for smaller JPs

There has been 4 jackpot winners in 5 draws over 16 days (July 8th to July 22nd). It will be interesting to see if the people who only play when it gets up to $250M or so now decide hey, wait a minute! I better play the lower jackpots .. it goes on a tear, increasing the prize by more than $5M each draw that isn't won for the next 2 or 3 weeks. It's happened before. The recent big one went 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 43, but back in January it went 15, 22, 30, 39, 48, 56 in as many drawers last year the... [ More ]

That is pretty anticlimactic considering just a few weeks ago the MM winner got a jackpot prize worth almost 75 times what each of these winners will receive. The 2nd place prize would have been valued at $4 million with the MP but no one hit that.

Speed of the mix and time in the mix certainly have an impact. Have you ever tried to calculate the speed of the mixer and measure the amount of time in the mixer along with how far apart timewise the balls come out of the mixer?

There are several factors that control the distribution of the numbers and how they come out.

LottoLucy — Sat, 23 Jul 2016 20:13:22 GMT

I was wondering that too and kind of hoping that was the case. If not, I kind of feel sorry for the people who won. You finally win a big jackpot game like megamillions and you end up with $2.5 million after taxes? That is a lot of money to be sure but not what people have come to expect.

I watched the video from last night's drawing. It looked like the ball drop, the cylinder tumbles a few times and then the balls come out on the bottom. But, they are zoomed in so close that for all I know, there is someone placing the balls in the opening.

I think they don't mix the balls long enough for them to get mixed properly.

I think that's why they sell the tickets prior to the drawing.

I gave in to life(my check came a week late and my parent company axed that company who was pretty much there to handle payroll). But I also swore I wouldnt pay the small jackpots.
