Year to date winnings
I am hoping our Super 7 Groups have a couple of big wins in the next two draws. I checked out our year to date winnings and we did not do as well this year as past years. So far this year we won $1,118 plus $402 worth of free tickets. Last year was our best year. We won $2,224, $505 worth of free tickets and $14,074 US. Our next best year was 2004 where we won $5,902, $78 worth of free tickets and $5,256 US. In 2003 we won $1,587, $170 worth of free tickets and $7,476...

Powerball vs. MegaMillions
Powerball would get my vote for two reasons. First I like that ability to multiply your winnings from 2x to 5x and second the jackpots seem to go higher. Being from california, a megamillions state, I hav'nt played powerball much. If the other megamillions states ever give players the option of multiply their prizes like powerball, players in california will be left out because of a stupid state law that all prizes, except jackpots are pari-mutuel. If your lucky enough to hit a...

Those Powerball changes
Sooooo They've added a couple of white balls to Powerball, says they, gonna get us a lot bigger jackpots because that's what people want. What's the big deal about a couple of white balls? There's not a big deal about a couple of white balls. But there's also not a big deal about the substan...

New year, no change in bank roll management.
It's a new year and with that new opportunities awaiting in the world of lotto. I will manage the same bank roll this year, 3000 SEK or $400, s month. This year I had a ROI of %20. Considering I have played mostly on foreign lotteries the return of investment is quite good. I most enjoyed the Oz lotteries amd especially the syndicate win of $460, one number from a big win. The US lotteries have been more disappointing, with small wins. I will play them less unless th...

Things i've noticed: How do you plan to get the 100+ Million mark if is only 4 to 5 times a year
I know that Megamillions/Powerball is planing to play both in all states and that eventually will make 100 million jackpots more common but for the mean time i got this for you: I've heard many times very commonly say they will like to win: 100 million, 150 million, 200 million in MegaMillions/powerball and they can't wait when they win it...And this is going way back when MM PB starting jackpot was 10 mill...First of all those jackpots ranging from 100 million to 200+ million...

Which is more unlikely, a $970 million jackpot or getting 71 million votes?
Sad that with zero proof of voter fraud, lots of people still not only believe there was, but believe it was widespread and effected millions of votes. I wonder how many of the 71 million are still acknowledging how they voted after watching the attack on the Capital Building that killed five people? I don't have a link to a non-Lottery Post member's opinion to agree or disagree with, but it's like posting an opinion of a player that got very lucky and won a couple scratch-off jackp...

Me trying to follow thru on Resolution
Well I see those big jackpots and realize I do not have $40 million in the bank or higher and want to play for it even with my $3 tickets. But I had a new years resolution that said play only when the jackpot was around $300 million for powerball and mega millions. Then $5 million for the state lotto Oregon Megabucks but I have a multi-draw ticket for 7 more draws so my resolution is not working. I think I have to be more realistic about my choices and just pl...

Gambling
Well hospital bill showed up today in the mail and I am thankful they wrote off most off it but I still had to pay $200 to go to the ER. So I sent that off then my sister needed $50 to pay her electric bill so I helped her with that. So with the money I have left over I am going to be cautious and wait to see the megabucks and powerball and mega millions grow bigger. Before I put money down on it after this weekend so I think that I will wait to see the jackpots climb a litt...
