Powerball winner from Indiana for 9/14
The second winner of Powerball for 9/14 has not yet come forward to claim the prize. Is it possible that the winner does not know he won? What happens if no one claims? What will they do with the money? Will it go to the pool?I am just trying to imagine some poor guy put his clothes in the washing machine with 50 million ticket in the pocket...

Probabilty of Someone Winning a PB & MM Jackpot in the same Week!Reply
No matter how many tickets are played only one combination can win, and of 175,711,536 combinations only one can be drawn. But Coin.... People are saying if I buy 2 tickets I'm cutting the odds in half and buying 10 tickets will reduce the odds to 17.5 million to 1. So I took their advice and bought 10 tickets but when I got home, read the Mega Millions website and looked at my tickets; I think I got ripped off!!! When I looked at my 10 tickets, I noticed I had 10 different mega ball

Lucky for LifeReply
So the place I went to play this game is a small place in Delaware. I was there LAST Friday 3/18, and since the cards in Delaware do not have a box for advance play I have to ask the clerk to do it. I asked the clerk of the small liquor store i was at to play Friday to Sunday 3/18 to 3/20. Turns out he was 'substituting' for his wife who was suppose to be there and really never ran the machine. It took him a while to figure it out and he asked me like 5 times the same question 'you want Friday t

Cash 4LifeReply
I just came home and my last stop was a store where I decided to buy another $10 CFL to get the free ticket. I filled out the slip and got the ticket but no freebie. I pulled out the ticket I had previously purchased with $10 worth of CFL along with the free CFL and showed the counter person who had no answer as to why I didn't get a free ticket this time or why I got one the previous time. I stopped at another store and they said that randomly a machine will kick out a free ticket on its own???

Purchasing a ticketReply
Problem with that is you have to carry the dang slip with you. I never have a pocket or whatever big enough to carry it. But I have the same problem as the OP. Just recently I asked for 5 Powerballs, no multiplier. The guy handed me a ticket with one line, good for the next 5 draws! WTH! I refused it and he got me the right ticket. So then I had to pay attention to the next 5 draws to see if any tickets sold here won big. LOL Luckily the biggest one sold was just a 4 + 0, so if that ticket di

Purchasing a ticket
I always play MM and PB with the extra dollar. I ask for a power play and a megaplier. More than 75% of te time the clerk gets it wrong and gives me the lower cost/ lower payout ticket. This drives me crazy. Why can't they get it right? What am I saying wrong. I hate having to fill in a play sheet for a quick pick. And of course I then end up spending more money by re-purchasing the same numbers that came out but with the multiplier. And I know it is probably against the rules but many times

Should I report this error or not?Reply
A bearer instrument is presumed to be owned by the person in possession, but that's not the same as actually being owned by the person in possession. In RJ's scenario the clerk would know where and when the ticket was bought, and any other transactions that happened at the same time. The clerk might have a photo of several tickets that the lottery could link together, and might have a credit card transaction at the same time and location. That would all add up to very credible evidence that the

What's with NY Sweet Million??Reply
I'm doing the partial QP thing in a lame attempt to try to keep the machine from giving me a regular QP with a string of 3 or 4 numbers in sequence. (But even doing a partial cant stop that from happening. The only way to prevent it is to do PP's) Lately, it seems like the regular QP's I have gotten have a string of three numbers in sequence, followed by a fourth number almost in sequence with the other three. Not too long ago I got 31 32 33 35...... Because I dont track SM numbers like I
