Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
the price hike could have been a response to slowing sales There's absolutely no question about it. Lottery revenue has been generally going downhill for years and the lotteries have been trying to stop the decrease or at least slow it down. One of the first huge jackpots was when MM reached $656 million in March 2012 on the 18th drawing. It reached 290 on the 16th drawing and then increased 73 363 and 293 656. A year and a half later in December 2013 it reached $257 million on drawing

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
Of all the years I have been a member of Lottery Post, I actually never thought of that. What if lottery officials actually look at our messages regarding opinions on jackpots and insight about the lottery topics and even the lottery in general? The numerous posts and even the charts and graphs that Jade Lottery and other members post on here would give lottery officials different perspectives from lottery fans on the games. After all, I honestly think we have had some of the most dedicated lott

One Georgia ticket wins $983 million Mega Millions jackpotReply
what makes that tacky? words have meanings, perhaps learn them. nobody is obligated to play games of chance if they consider the odds bad and the cost not worth it for small jackpots.

I may be the only one on this site that likes the Mega Millions game . I'm pretty sure I like it too. I just haven't started playing it yet. Since the first time they broke the $1 billion mark, PB has offered 3 jackpots advertised at more than $1.7 billion, all in the last 3 years. With slower growth I don't expect MM to manage similar results in only 3 years, but the same basic probability as BP at $5 per ticket should theoretically give us 3 jackpots about twice that size. I mostly prefer

I remember watching the guy from the lottery being interviewed saying how much better the game will be. He said bigger average jackpots. He said the average would be 800 million. And more people would win with improved odds. So far non of that has happened.

$1.3 million Jersey Cash 5 lottery jackpot unclaimed for almost a yearReply
What a conundrum! Lottery players spend a lot of time and money trying to capture that jackpot, yet all to often said jackpot is won but goes unclaimed. Funny how a lot of jackpots are won by careless individuals!

MM $5, PB $2, Powerplay $1IReply
I think it would be really stupid for Powerball to do the same thing and make their game terrible as well. How stupid it is depends on how stupid their target demographic is. So far, for any advertised jackpot at $5 per ticket MM is collecting more revenue than they did at $2 per ticket. If sales remain relatively modest even when it goes up another 200, 500 or 800 million they might lose out in the long run due to a higher percentage of drawings with sales of $20 to $50 million, but in the
