I haven't, but I sure would like to win that Hot Lotto, which is up to almost $10 million. I will be playing it in DC in less than two weeks on my way to Florida. I live near Connecticut, but CT doesn't have HL.

MM has gotten two jackpots above $260 million ($265 and $270 million jackpot winners) this year. PB has gotten one jackpot above $260 million ($365 million jackpot winner) this year. I hope PB does go above $260 million again.

Xmas is coming and I'd love to buy $100 worth of tickets for a $300,000,000 Jackpot!

My guess is that it is more probable than having 3 powerball jackpots won in a row (as happened recently). However it is very unlikely that it will happen. If one of the two jackpots were more advanced, it would be far more likely.
I would love it if the two jackpots stopped following one another and that their cycles were out of phase.

I'm with you. I don't really care which one goes through the roof, as long as someone is extremely lucky around Xmas time. Jack Whitaker received one of the worlds most blessed gifts a few years back, and we don't need to re-hash what happened. But I want someone to get blessed and dod some great good in their lives and their community.

I'd say that Powerball could easily hit 260M by Christmas. I have just given up on expecting anything from Mega. Eurmillions is only five drawings away from it's record but is unlikely to roll that high.

I wish we could still play Euromillions. I see PTS stopped taking bets from US residents for Euromillions. I guess they are running scared before the dust settles from the rash of arrest on offshore CEO's of gambling sites!
And to answer the question above "Will we see another $260,000,000 - $300,000,000 Jackpot this year?" I say "NO" But I do hope for one though, so I could take a shot at winning it!

Keep dreaming the impossible dream, it just may come true!

I'm making some bets in Las Vegas this week that we'll see a $260,000,000 - $300,000,000 before this year closes. On Mega Millions no less. If I can win the JP in these large games, I'll make my money betting on them

It's still kind of a long shot, so I hope you're getting odds.
Betting on betting! All I can say is, wow!

If they will actually take a bet on this that would be interesting. I'd say they'd win if you bet Mega can get that high before the end of the year or even next year. Powerball would be 50/50 at the 300 level. Euromillions would be equal to that in 2 rolls but it's unlikely it keeps rolling when it's this big.

Here we are 2 1/2 months until the end of 2006. I think we will get some nice jackpots but maybe not the record jackpots. You have to get combinations that will continue to stump its players draw after draw. Players have been very lucky over the last two years in both Multi-state games. I think I will side with the players and say that the jackpots are not going to be heading in the record direction. But as always the lottery could go either way.-weshar75
