One draw after your exodus :The Pool wins BIG- The Problem we have is the following:

*You guys used to roll your previous winnings over & you convinced that part of that rollover money had your name on it.

*Do you go back to the group and try to work out something or forget about it all together.

*Or Lawyer up.

A legal exit paper signed by person leaving and the head of the pool. Copied and distributed to pool members.

Everyone knows that Lottery Pools never Win until one of the Pool Members Quits the Pool! LOL!

A mind once stretched by a new idea never returns to its original dimensions!

Catch-22: A dilemma or difficult circumstance from which there is no escape because of mutually conflicting or dependent conditions.

If you don't have a copy of the winning tickets the rollover doesn't apply to you. Walk away and keep your dignity. If you were playing for a while--some of the winners may give you a little something--maybe.

The day you quit the pool you gave up everything. You are now SOL. You may now proceed to kick yourself in the ass.

That's sound advice- but some will not go gently into that Goodnight as you well know Z.

Some may treat being in Lotterypool to being in a relationship. They may have walked away, yet ever so now & then they would call the ex to let them know that they still around...

Some pools have people that join in, then drop out for awhile then join in again, which leads to nothing but trouble. Especially when the pool hits. Then you have people wanting a cut because they USED to be in the pool. Or else it's, "I want to get back in, but I'll pay you next week"..."Oh, you hit this week? Where's my share?"

Nah, when you're out, you're out.

Our PAYPAL process is how members know if they are current. If they miss a deposit, our SLUSH fund automatically covers them for the next rotation.

That's whats nice, 10 members all over the USA and its all Automated.

It's really no different than asking if you had played a set of numbers for years and the day after you stop playing them they come in. Should you run to the lottery commission showing them the thousands of losing tickets with those numbers and expect to share some of the jackpot or should you just move on and be satisfied knowing it wasn't your time to win.

* you don't need to buy every combination, just the winning ones *

True RJ- l think when a person plays solo and loses, they look at it as par for the course. When playing with a group, "sometimes" the thinking changes. I vaguely recall a few years ago an incident back East with a former lottery pool member attempting to get a share of the money despite him having left, his reasoning was " part of the rollover money" that was used to purchase the winning ticket was his, therefore he felt entitled to a share.
