  Theyre both up there. I figured they both would roll these last two draws and to get the super frenzy really going they need to both roll at least 2 more times. Im thinking it will be mega, its higher and it usually does hit before power when they are both up there, but that's who Im going to go with there. Mega will hit 1st. What do you think??

  I say Mega. It has sold more than twice as many tickets as its odds in the current cycle, while Powerball has sold just a little more than its odds.

  While that doesn't mean much on the face, it can be used to calculate cumulative probabilities. The lottery uses this information to gauge press releases.

  If the chances of winning the jackpot are so slim, why play when the jackpot is so small? Your chances never change, but the potential payoff does.
  If a crystal ball showed you the future of the rest of your life, and in that future you will never win a jackpot, would you still play?

  P&L % = Total Win($)/Total Wager($) - 1
