    Powerball jackpot is $380 million... Did you buy any tickets?

    Odds of winning are 1 in 175 million.

    If you take the one time payment in cash its $256.8 million before taxes.

    If I win I will pay to turn 5 lucky broke dikk fukk non-pros into SBR pros.


    This guy won $294 million.

    quick pick at the 7-11 across from Los Alamitos. I figured that's about as hopeless a place to buy a lottery ticket except maybe at the dog track.

    Yeah. It usually works out to be about 33% of the pot after taxes and everything when you take the 1 time payment.

    Coach, how about I send you some tickets and you sell them for 2-3x on the streets?

    We've got 3 days to make some serious cash here.

    Grand prize odds are 1 in 175Million, so for a $2 powerball ticket, any jackpot over $350million is +EV. So at $400+ million currently, go buy a ticket!
