That is just an insane amount of money!
Chances of winning goes down as the pot goes up...more people play bigger pots.

So how many people are playing this today?

Just curious

The odds remain the same, except the chances of someone else playing your exact same number increases.

I played since it was on high 100 millions. Couple friends and I group 20 bucks every Tue/Fri and check the numbers online at work. I think we threw away more than 200 bucks all together the past two years..

I'm ready. When it was 260 or so I did a $2 quick pick. Didn't get one number.

are you joking?


well this is more of a joke actually:

At my company we all pooled $10/person X 20 people I believe.
We did not get one single number.

And as I heard someone else got the the 250,000 prize and I bet they only bought one damn ticket

Have you heard what happend to some of the past lottery winners?

Some dude started going to strip clubs and he had a suitcase with something like $100K in it that got stolen. Most end up with nothing in the end...








Oh yes, I'll be buying mine later this afternoon.
