$865 MILLION: Powerball jackpot reaching historic levelsReply
I've been playing for 20 years! I'm happy if I just matched the 5 Mega ball with Mega Plier and go off into the sunset. For the life of me I don't understand why people will still play after winning $10 million or $100 million jackpots from the lottery. I know several people who won millions of dollars but they continue to play. Don't they know they beat tremendous odds. Hey but their stories of people who got struck by lightning twice in the same spot. I seen some crazy odds of like 1 in a tril

California Lottery announces group as winners of historic $1.765 billion Powerball jackpotReply
Cash value has been less than 50% for a while .. since interest rates started shooting up (big change from the COVID days of 83% :) But the hight interest rates is why the jackpots are so high (the return on annuity investments is earning a lot more.. 30 yr government bonds are over 4% now vs not much more than 2% during COVID

Accusations of "disturbing" new claims procedures after Allwyn sends investigator to winner's homeReply
If Amelia Barnham won large jackpots, I could understand the National Lottery carrying out checks to ensure everything was above board. But as Amelia won 23,600 (US$30,206) in small prizes over time. It seems like an overreaction.

I enjoy the large jackpots. Would thoroughly enjoy winning one and giving to charities, a few family members and very few close friends or people who I know could use a helping hand. It's very socialistic of you billybucks to speak for everyone but you are living in nah nah land thinking on what all people want , should have or can't be responsible for .... Maybe in your Utopian world this happens. Thank goodness, I don't have to live my life by your beliefs and have the opportunity to exceed...

No one wants these huge jackpots. You may think you do but it is too much money to be responsible for. You say give me a chance and I will prove you wrong. I will invest it and make much more with it. Why, I say would you need more. Reduce the matrix of numbers back to where it was originally. You can still have your power play which is a rip off by the way but that seems popular. We need more people winning less amounts. Hundred of millions of dollars sitting in some investment firms coffers af

How many combinations of the 4 patternsReply
Lots of new ideas on how to create simple number generators, but no ideas about the RNGs many state lotteries are now using. Even/odd or high/low from the last drawing can be used, but the odds of matching the winning numbers are exactly the same as any other random method. With live ball drawings, the best anyone could do is to compare drawing statistics to probability and look for a bias. I personally know people that have won large ($100,000 plus) jackpots using systems if picking birthd

What are the most used techniques to predict lottery numbers?Reply
2 people going for a death dual fight .......... 1 have a gun one a rock -who will you be choosing or put your money on ?Same thing. People that say the lottery is luck underestimate systems as without a system you will only rely on dumbluck -and you will have the odds against you. Im not selling anything BUT a good system will defnitely give a player a better chance in getting small prizes and possible bigger payouts. Thats just my honest view of it. And I DO NOT believe ping pong balls flying
