North Carolina: 8/1 - 8/31/2025Reply
Yea the just paying games like usual. Just like 559 hasn't came out since 2023 should have came last night. But you can expect crazy stuff whenever the jackpots are as high as they are right now.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
You're welcome. I have one Powerball and a couple of Super Lotto Plus tickets for tomorrow. If it can't be me, then I hope it's one of us. Watching these jackpots roll for months can make them boring despite the jackpot sizes growing to ridiculous amounts.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
There is a lot of discussion on how the Mega Millions jackpot is growing so slowly. But the reality is, both the Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots are growing slowly. Currently, the Mega Millions jackpot is growing more slowly than the Powerball jackpot simply because the Powerball jackpot is much larger - about three times as large. The current Powerball jackpot at $700 million was reached after 35 rolls. The 35 roll record for Powerball is a whopping $1.76 billion - over twice as large as t

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
I do chuckle at the MM statement they put in their news release on 3/25/25: The game will feature bigger prizes at every non-jackpot prize tier, better odds to win the jackpot, better odds overall, larger starting jackpots, and faster-growing jackpots. Starting at $50 Million didn't seem to energize much needed sales to support that claim. Let's see if the sticker shock of 150% increase wears off after a year or as one poster put it, they have a few runs that go for 30 drawings or more .

Seems like we need a reminder about how jackpots are calculated. This and many more lottery videos are accessible by clicking Lottery Post Videos in the left-side menu.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
Lottery sales for the big national games are down. This is probably the main reason the Mega Millions game was recently changed. Even on my worst days I'm not nearly stupid enough to think they wouldn't have tried messing with the game even if sales were still what they were 3 to 5 years ago, but the change was definitely an attempt to increase sales. So far the sales per drawing have been consistently higher than shortly before the change for the jackpots values we've seen, and sales f

Arizona Lottery bans Fast Play bulk ticket purchasesReply
Kind of strange here that Fast Play is listed for on line games...yet you can't purchase them apparently unless @ the store. Many different games listed with different jackpots. At the lottery machine on the ever so slow to get displayed jackpot screen Fast Play does show the largest jackpot from what I can gather. (KY).

Arizona Lottery bans Fast Play bulk ticket purchasesReply
AZ has no rules to prevent a buyout of the Pick6 or Fantasy5 AZ lotteries, where the jackpot estimate is published. Only a few Fast Play games have progressive jackpots, and in those games, the jackpots aren't published (at least, they don't show up on the arizonalottery.com website) , and play numbers/symbols are machine chosen and not player chosen. Since Fast Play buyouts only make sense when the jackpot estimate is known, and when the number of tickets purchased give a high enough e

Seems odd to me. Odds where dropped a smige. Ticket price has almost tripled. Less people are playing. And lower jackpots are being won. ......
