One more book of 50X can be taken off the list. It paid back a little more than half the cost. Meh.
I'll probably buy a book of King's Ransom with the winners, but after that I'm back to one and done on $20 tickets for a while. I grow weary of the chase.

Sorry to hear about a mediocre roll.
I hear you, the "what if" thought about hitting such a big prize makes it worth it until we look at wallets and bank account balances. The 50X game can be extremely rough. I haven't bought a roll of it, but I've encountered countless duds on that game when buying 15-20 and only getting maybe 3 winners totaling $40 maybe.
On Friday, I'm also going to try to play some KR. I don't think I'll buy a roll of 50X or 200MS. Maybe just a couple at that AK Quik place. Buying entire rolls can beat you up quickly unless you find a decent hit. Anywy, I'll be sure to post KR results.
Wishing you the best of luck if you decide to get some KR. I agree that the one and done $20 purchase is a smarter, and more sustainable one to take.

The Circle K store close to me, has kept the KR game in stock. I have been buying them off and on for a while, but picked up the pace this week. I bought a bunch the other night and got my butt kicked. I posted the results here.
Tonight I went back and the new book was on ticket 12. I took the rest.
Ticket #38 was good.................... very good.........

Details in a day or so.....
Awesome, so happy for you Adam! You've been killing it lately man. It is so cool to have someone from our community actually hit it big.
With 2 more advertised on KR, perhaps there might be one up in North Florida? Do you mind sharing the book number on the back of your ticket when you get a chance? I'm contemplating playing a little bit of 50X, 200MS, or KR this Friday.

fwiw... I am giving this ticket to my dad in the morning and letting him have it. He has played for years, and has never won more then $500. At this point, with what happened 2 weeks ago, I do not need this winner, and he deserves it.

There is a good chance there is one of those up here in North Florida. I have seen KR tickets in several stores around here. With EMTAdam's winner in book/grouping number of 0204488, it will need to be a book nowhere near that number...

Hmm. This does not bode well for books in my area. I checked through the duds from the books I've burned through over the last couple of weeks and they're all in the 199k-203k range.

Checking my KR book #s has prompted me to take out and organize all of my various duds. I have KR books from all across the game, but nowhere even close to as many tickets as I have for $200MS. That stack is embarrassingly large.
Given that the live KR books in my part of the panhandle are so close to the one Adam posted, I'll be switching targets on the $5 games. Now I think the ones that want to give up their last prizes are the ancient $5 Flamingo, and Lucky Loot.
