Poll: Classic Mega MillionsReply
I understand their point too, but don't see how that could happen on a multi state level because it would compete with other MUSL and state games. There were over 175 million combinations in the old MM game and players asked for larger jackpots. Our 4/35 + 1/25 has $225,000 jackpot with a decent secondary prize payouts. And we have Lucky for Life that has a nice intermediate jackpot. Ohio has a nice mix of games with something for about everybody.

$1.2 BILLION: Powerball jackpot is 3rd-largest in game historyReply
Yes, it's Idaho. They call it bundling for your convenience as though that makes it better. I believe that Montana has also begun bundling the powerball. I wish MUSL didn't allow that. If you're gonna raise the price, just raise it nationwide instead of trying to manipulate players.

Happy ThanksgivingReply
Don't give MUSL any ideas; they'll come up with something for Thursdays and Sundays. Went to Dollar General to get Thanksgiving cards for the upcoming guests. They already put them up (unusual for them!). Then to the store to buy Powerball tickets--six of them. Got distracted with guy next to me and wanted to play our almost two week old Double Play but kept mashing the wrong button...but hey a free ticket is bettOR (sic) than nothing. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

$1.4 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
There are many 2X PowerPlay balls (they're actually not balls because the PowerPlay number is generated by RNG software) but MUSL programmed their RNG to have only one 10X. That's why so few 10X's but a lot of 2X's. If the jackpot is less than 150 million, the 2 million prize could be a lot more if you're willing to play the same set of five numbers multiple times on one ticket. For instance the prize can be 10 million if you bought the same line five times. It's true that a ticket like that

Massachusetts store clerk indicted after stealing lottery ticket worth $3 million from customerReply
Read the MUSL Powerball rules. Couldn't find that the ticket was called a bearer instrument. One thing that struck me regarding ticketless sales was the very last sentence: A receipt for a Ticketless Transaction Play has no value and is not evidence of a Play . OK, I get 'no value', but no evidence of Play? So if a computer glitch occurs which @ some point probably will what happens then???

$1.725 BILLION: Powerball jackpot now 2nd-largest of all timeReply
Congrats to the winner/winners. I am done with it all now. It's not rigged, but it sure as hell feels like it. Plus MUSL refuses to raise the starting jackpot back to $40 million. Kind of a slap to the true player. The deal was $2.00 increase. bigger jackpots and bigger starting jackpots. Time to put my money elsewhere. Done with scratch offs, slot machines, nudge/skill machines, jackpot games, and on line. I am not a young man anymore and I cannot absorb the losses like I used to.

$1.08 billion Powerball lottery winner Yanira Alvarez filed claim for jackpot over five months agoReply
Yep, something sure smells fishy here. All lotteries have instant access to DOR records to verify whether any claimant has any liens or judgements against them on file. I would certainly ask both the California lottery and the Powerball commission when and how all those monies collected were disbursed. Does the MUSL( Powerball and Mega Millions) hold onto that money UNTIL a verified ticket has been presented ? Follow the money. Figures don't lie. Liars sure can figu
