  Twenty bucks?

   

  Just kidding, I think I saw a post on here about a man claiming he won $200,000, though I don't know for sure if it was true.

   

  If you won a super-jackpot would you still post on Lottery Post?  Would you eventually tell the board?

  I think something around $100,000.  There is a ticket img somewhere around here..

  I would try to keep it a secret, but it might be difficult to not let something slip.

  More than 20 bucks, Yes, and No.

  If I won, I would tell Todd to tell the board, but not let the board know it was me.

  I am curious.  Why?  Do you think someone could track you down through your username?

  It has happened before.  I was once denied warranty work on a vehicle because of something I posted on an internet forum.

  A PB winer was on this forum awhile ago.  I tried to post a link, I'm not sure if it went through or not because I'm a new member.  You can search the forum's past posts and look for "EZmoney 86 million PB win" or something of the sort.  It turns out he won 100K in PB (before they changed their payout) by matching 5 of 5 and no PB.  He told the board, and was a bit crass about the whole thing. So I guess some people do and some don't.  I for one, probably wouldn't. I hope I get the chance to find out.

  I once won $6 million when the 6 birthdays in my family were drawn on Saturday night for the Florida Lotto.  I was overwhelmed and began jumping up and down, raising my arms and shouting "Thank you. Thank you. OMG Thank you!"   Then I woke up.

  I won 100 pounds on the UK Lottery along with many small 5 and 10 pound prizes. I have also won many small prizes in NSW lottery games; the biggest $60. But the largest prize was $1500 on Megabucks a Massachusetts lottery game. I'm still hoping for a big win.
