  Since the Powerball has been restructured there hasn't been one instance where a jackpot was won at this level.

   

  Do you think you have a snowball's chance?

  Interesting, I read somewhere that very few people buy lines for the early drawings because they think that $40 million is not enough. That would probably be why no one wins unless the pot starts growing.

  I'll take $40 million in a heartbeat. Would you turn it down? Anyone who says they would is full of

  Since most snowballs have a very good chance, yes.

  I guess I'll have to go out later and get a ticket... Or maybe I'll just wait.

  I don't know about that....$40 million would suit me just fine.........but seeing as how it just got hit by someone in PA. 50 million btw....I can't see it being hit this quick again...now maybe Wed. or next Sat. would be the next hit....but it's so random who knows LOL

  Original Bey,

  How bad would you be kicking yourself if you let those stats keep you from hiting a 5 + 0?

  Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any. So many systems, so many theories, so few jackpot winners. 

  

  There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.
