Thank you Kap.
And................... thanks to the 22 and the 38, I'm $22.50 richer cuz I had the 14 on the same line!!!!!!
Back to back winners. Not to mention I hit 3 numbers in SM last nite for 3 bucks....
"When you're hot, you're HOT"
All kidding aside, what really happened to me last nite is that I could see the 22 and a number from the high thirty's might come out together, so I just carpet bombed them on my ticket.. And then I got lucky by having the 14 on the same line. Here's my ticket:
2 10 22 29 38 <====another FP!!
7 11 22 25 37
4 13 22 26 39
9 14 21 22 38 <== $22.50
6 18 22 24 36
Dont forget about the 22. It's going to come back again soon. It's got a lot of catching up to do.
The thing is this; if you can just pick a FP, and then get super lucky by having what amounts to a 3 bagger on the same line, you'd be in Jackpot City. I can and do hit FP's on a fairly regular basis. I've hit literally hundreds of them since I started playing T5 back in 2009. But I rarely ever hit a third or (God forbid) fourth winning number on the same line. I always seem to have the nites other winning numbers on the otherlines of my ticket. I cant count the number of times I've had two FP's on one ticket, each line with a set of two different winning numbers that arent on the other line that won a FP. (I had 4 of the 5 winning numbers on 2 different lines of the same ticket which gave me 2 FP's)
But I'm gonna take my $22.50 anyway!!! You fella's can start callin' me "The NEW Cajun". G5

OK guys.... here's a question for you to ponder....
Is that 22 going to REPEAT tonite??? I dont know! But one thing I do know is I'M NOT GOING TO PLAY IT! That's cuz I know I cant possibly win T5 3 nights in a row, so I aint playin' tonite! Well, actually I AM playing tonite. I'm playing the TWO FP's I won last nite. Did any of you notice in my post above that I didnt see that I had actually won two FP's last nite??? Besides the 22, I had the 18 on my last line, but I was so excited that I had back to back 3 baggers that I didnt see it! (Hey Mink, do you think that me winning back to back 3 baggers is kinda like Jeter hittin' back to back grand slams? Or The Poke's beatin' The Jints twice in the same season? Which cant possibly happen. Not with Tony Romo it cant)
When I got to the store this morning on my way to work, I scanned my ticket. It said $22.50 and TWO FP's... That's when I first realized I had won two of 'em.
While I was standing at the scanner, some guy along side of me (a total stranger) was buying scratch offs. He saw that I won, and that I also had a winning Sweet Million ticket, so he said "Congratulations". I told him that I had won $24.00 playing T5 the nite before last too, and he promptly reached out and touched me!!!!
On my way out of the store, there he was...sittin' in his car scratchin' away!! I showed him my 25 bucks ($22.50 for T5, and $3.00 for SM) and he just grinned and kept scratchin'. I jumped in my Jeep and took off!
A guy at work doesn't believe it happened.... He thinks I'm bull-jivin' him. hee hee hee! He said "If it's true, then that's a good sign that we're gonna win a million bucks in Ct's SuperDraw come July 4th. (He's in a pool I started for that. We bought 24 tix. The eight guys in the pool each threw in 30 bucks..... SuperDraw tix are 10 bucks a pop, but the odds are 275,000 to 1 to win a cool million bunk-a-roons!

No repeat in three draws.
My first bet is its going to be either the 14 or the 22.
Now you got me pondering G5,
Was it a good touch or a bad touch?
It startled me..... he touched me on the back of my left shoulder. I've heard that people will walk up to a big lottery winner and ask if they can touch them, but this is the first time anybody did it to me.

I got a 22 in one of the lines of the promotional quick picks today. But my power numbers for today are 23 and 37. Crossing my fingers for those to come up.

Here's a good one for you. None of us need to play the lottery to try and get rich. We just need a big pair of cohones. Here's why:
I just watched an episode of CNBC's American Greed. Ever hear of Allen Stanford? He's this multi-billionaire from Texas. A year ago this month, Big Al was sentenced to 102 years behind bars. He's another Bernie Madoff. He stole all of the investor's money in his bank, and lived very high on the hog with it. He had Lear jets, yachts, and big houses all over the world.
Big Al stole 1.3 million from a single mother who needed a liver and kidney transplant. But now she's broke. She says these days she only has 200 bucks in her check book, and worry's about money every day and night. She had her liver and kidney transplants, but had to sell her home and move in with her daughter.
Big Al was worth over two billion. Now he's just a Yardbird in The Big House and doesnt have a prayer of ever getting out. But I bet it was nice while it lasted......
