That's almost enough to make it worth the drive to Idaho to buy a ticket or six...

107 miles to Malad Idaho, the closest Powerball location and no surprise the largest volume seller of lottery tickets in Idaho. <95% to residents of Utah...

You don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man.
Take a look at my cousin: he's broke, don't do ****.

I hit one number in 20 tickets. :laugh:

Meanwhile 3 big winners...29 tickets in Cali hit 5 of 6. :eek: I haven't read the articles yet, but I've gotta think the winners are going to take home ~$100m each from the $640m jackpot.

We spent $55 to get our ten bucks. :gomer:

They say this is the biggest jackpot in history. I bet Powerball going to $2 a ticket helped. I refuse to buy Powerball tickets anymore and maybe others have done the same and turned their purchases to the Megamillion lottery.

I think we'll see another big jackpot this year.

Apparently 10 $250K winners in oHIo as well. Looks like the big winners may be south of $100m if they take it lump sum. Still, a nice problem to have...

People who run powered balls are dumb. Why not reduce jackpot and give some cash to people who got four balls, three balls and tow balls? I got two balls on one ticket, if they gave me acouple grand, I'd buy more tickets. But now, they can go **** themselfs. More people wood play if there was a chance of winning something.

I let the computer make my picks since it's going to make the PB picks. I've decided which 7-11 to go to. The owner came to a community event so *when* I win, I would be glad for him to get his tiny percentage. Now, I just have to remember to go there. :\

They use balls for the actual numbers. In a locked vault two stories down. TG is referring to the 'auto lotto' process when you buy tix. Now up to $1.4B. Chances of winning 1 in 289m and change. :saywhat:

OK, I read it that may as well do the quick pick since the computer does BOTH the quick pick and the winning numbers.

1 in 292,201,338 to be exact. :)
