Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
before you tell us the MM is 'Measly' compare the MM and PB jackpots and consider taking a remedial math course. The measly millions nonsense has been tired for a while already, and MM is growing at about the same per-drawing rate as PB. For their 18th drawings in the current run (as far as PB has gotten so far) PB is offering $115 million (in actual cash) while MM offered $120.4 million. As for a remedial math course, it probably wouldn't help you, but if it did you might actually lea

Michigan Weekly Breakdown — Fantasy 5 & Lotto 47 Trend Report (April 4-9)Reply
From some of the things I've read in the Lottery Master Guide book (LMG) authored by the late Gail Howard, on page 8 in the LMG it says: How Jackpots Are Built Lottery Officials Love when a Jackpot Rolls Over. Because it increases lottery ticket sales for the next drawing. And it brings in more revenue for the State. In the State of Michigan, from what I understand is... the lottery proceeds go into an Educational Fund to assist with the educational needs for grades K thru 12 in

how long would you wait to claim a powerball jackpot?Reply
There is a small handful that never claim it because they either lost the ticket, threw it out because they didn't check it properly, or put it somewhere to check later and forgot they had it. Think glove box, car console, kitchen junk drawer etc. Current unclaimed PB tickets. https://www.powerball.net/unclaimed-prizes Current unclaimed MM tickets. https://www.lottery.net/mega-millions/unclaimed-prizes Here are some of the most famous unclaimed lottery jackpots in history: $1

MM went for 40 draws under the $5.00 ticket to produce a jackpot of $485.2 cash/$980 annuity. If you can do math, that's 5 months. And? How long it takes is irrelevant to the probability of happening. Given your username I'd think it should be easy enough to understand. play all ya want, no one is gonna win till the breaks the billion dollar mark Somebody could win this Friday, but it's more likely that it won't be won until they sell about another 145 million tickets.

Better off sticking to state games. I usually go for 10 or 20 tickets for the PB , so instead I'll do it all on the 1$ state lottery. It may be less to win but there's a better chance. The winning set of numbers can land in the UK and we're out. Idk how others can't see this. The money doesn't stay in the house, it's going to be spent in another country. Anyone who wins in the US has to pay taxes, which helps our roads and funds other services. Whoever wins in another country benefits that co

Weekly total sales for PB tends to run about $3.66 Million more than MM from the start and increases at a rate 2.61% more than MM. The graph shows the current jackpot run as we posted earlier. Given PB $2 / $3 ($2.2 average) at 3 draws and MM $5 at 2 draws, you'd think MM would have the advantage. If we played 1 line per draw a week, that's $6 to $9 ($6.6 average) for PB and $10 for MM... hmm, seems a bit off. Let's not forget, MM has yet to produce a Billion Dollar jac

Probably irritate alot of people if they won it right after joining, without contributing much of anything...lol Here's a fun fact: in the history of lotteries single winner has been somebody that that didn't contribute much of anything even if they played every drawing up until they drawing they won. Imagine if you're a resident of New York who plays the state lottery regularly and that state decides to open up to global online sales. You start seeing players in Turkey or South Korea w
