With the NEW Promo for Take 5 I am playing my normal numbers for a couple of nights at a time to 'get' the promo.
Got 3 of 5 on the promo numbers last night
figures I hit on the QP's - LOL
Also playing my NASCAR #s this week of 8, 11, 16, 17, 29
I bought the Take5 promotion today, but I dont know why I bothered.
It's not because I got eight lousy QP lines. I did some player pix, and also some partial QP's. Maybe it's because I havent won any cash for quite a while. I was averaging one line with 3 numbers in it per month, but I cant remember the last time I won with 3 numbers.
Maybe it's because winning a JP with Take5 wont make you rich. Besides that, there's very few single JP winners. Most days it's two or three people splitting the JP. So I dunno.
Unlike most people, I started playing PB when the price went up to 2 bucks per line, but only when the JP got big. Now it's 60 at million, so I doubt I'll play until it gets well over 100 million. I might play Mega tomorrow because it's at 160 million. I even played a 10 dollar scratch off recently. (To me, that's a high priced scratch off. I mostly buy $2 and $5 scratch off's, and I didnt do that very often. I'm not much of a scratch off fan.)
A guy at work told me I dont spend enough per week on the lottery. So asked him how much per week did he spend on lottery tickets. His answer; "30 bucks." So I then I asked him how much of that did he get back. "Not much." I'm not real sure how much I spend per week on tickets because it varies from week to week. It depends on where I am, and if I have a few extra bucks in my pocket. And I dont keep track of how much I spend. My paydays are every other Friday, so every other week, when I'm not flush with cash, I dont play much at all.
How do some of you folks play Take5? I'm not asking how much you spend. Do you play Take5 every day?
Play Smart! That's IF there is such a thing as playing smartly!!

I have 2 sets of 5 numbers that I TRY to play most every day... I miss or forget to play sometimes days at a time. When I hit in the 3-way I play a few more lines. I added the Nascar numbers but I only seem to play those on Fridays & Saturdays which is when I remember to or am thinking more about Nascar - LOL!

WOW is right.
I did see that happen before, I think it was last week or the week before. I wonder what the numbers were then. I will see I can find the payout info for that day.
Of course they are all NYC areas. That area in Kings county seems to hit everything.
EDIT: Found it, it wasn't 9 people like I thought, just 8 :).

Kings County is also known as The Borrough of Brooklyn!
I dunno what the population of Brooklyn is, but I'm sure it's in the millions, and I believe Brooklyn is the most populated borrough of NYC. It's no wonder there are a lot of JP winners in Kings County.
