#107Sidebet for 25 betpoints...the winner never goes back to their job ever againOriginally posted by Ra77erbettil has a wild imagination lol

#109You're right what was I thinking when I started this threadOriginally posted by Boner_18I doubt we'll see billion dollar lottery jackpots very soon.
They've just made the lottery bout twice as hard to hit and charge twice as much for tickets...it was a brilliant move on their part bc these massive lottos captivate ppl's imaginations Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory style....even a guy like myself that never plays the lotto will throw away 40 bucks in the event it hits 1.5 billion or whatever just to be a part of the lotto fever...I honestly consider whoever hits this lottery to be the luckiest person in the world. It's like 3000x more likely you'll get struck by lightning or something and to do it when the pot is this big is unimaginable but someone is gonna be that lucky tonight and whilst I'd like it to me whoever it is I'm gonna follow the story and I'm just praying its an interesting person like a ghetto hoodrat or trailer trash that just goes nuts with the 700 mil....somebody that it just flips their life upside down.Comment -

#112Well I mean I'll have to owe you the points if u win cuz apparently Im supposed to donate a 100 bucks to charity to be an SBR pro which is kind of weird considering this is a gambling forum that's promoted and misgraded new books which has led to the robbery of its members for tons of cash on multiple occasions to get so damn charitable but anyways. I mean yea they'll play it cool until everything's in order but working that 9 to 5 job changing bedpans or whatever is history.Originally posted by Ra77erI'll take that bet, I think whoever wins will go back to work.

How many tickets do you have Ra77er we can make a deal here ya never know whats gonna happen in this crazy world it might be our day...here's my offer to you you hit the JP in this draw I get a million dollars and vice versa but both of us have gotta buy at least 10 tickets. And believe me I'll be happy to pay ya if I hit

#113No way that's a terrible bet...somewhere between 85-100% of the #s are being played tonight so somewhere between 85-100% chance of hitting or 0-15% chance of not hitting...Id take it not to hit at +900 bc I think about 90% of the #s are in play but 525 no wayOriginally posted by pattymayoAnyone betting NO winner tonight? +525 on 5dComment -

#121Well they dont divulge any information about the draw until after the draw BUT given that the last jackpot had 3 days (Thus-Sat) to buy tickets and was 950 mil and 400 million tickets were sold and this one had 4 days and currently at around 1.5 billion there would have to have been at least 600 mil tickets sold...last draw 78% of the #s were taken this draw I would guess at least 90%...I will be very very surprised if there is no instant billionaire in 50 minutesOriginally posted by d2betsOne would think so, but who knows. How many tix are they saying have been sold?
Here's one other thing I bought 10 tickets...I almost bought 20 but I decided to go with just 10 for 20 bucks and despite the argument that I'm torching 20 bucks (and that's a fair statement I guess unless I win lol) I have gotten well over 20 dollars enjoyment from this 1.5 billion dollar madness and I see the ppl buying their tickets and there's a light in their eyes of hope and dreams and ya wish em good luck and they wish u good luck and ya know what when I drop my tickets in the trash in an hour I wont miss that 20 it was fun I hope it climbs back to over a billion soon and I'll dump 20 each draw until its hit again....I'm also not done I want to see who hits and if they're an interesting brokedik person like most of us how it impacts their lives.
Oh yea and if I miss fuckin at least let Ra77er hit

#130One of the winners was in TN an hour away from me....bought in Munford about 10 miles from my ex-fiance's house....if she hit this lottery I'm gonna have to kill myself.Originally posted by TheMoneyShot3 Winning Tickets now confirmed.
I haven't heard from Ra77er...he must be celebrating....dont forget to Paypal that million
I think it's interesting that there are 3 winning tickets....as a self-professed lottery expert
lol I'm fascinated by this lottery draw in particular....if u notice the draws where nobody had a winning ticket were high # draws and this was a very low # draw....and had 3 winners well the balls are totally random but how ppl pick their #s is not totally random they go with birthdays and we're talking about only 31 days in a month and 12 months in a year and this puts the #1-31 in almost the 100% category everytime...here there was 1 # drawn outside this which was 34 (still not very high) but again even if u played 2 birthdays like April 19th and August 27 you would have 4 19 8 27 (that's the first 4 # of the powerball and then ya gotta throw a 5th # and hit the powerball but again with 600 mil tickets sold if the first 4 #s are birthdays its gonna be hit multiple winners it just depends on if your birthdays are lucky or not and you're one ball away from a million and 2 balls away from the jackpot. This is called the "birthday bias" and is well-known in Powerball...whenever they have a low draw like this its almost always hit.
In fact there was an unbelievable 30 other ppl with all 5 #s matched but not the powerball but still a cool mil (or 2 mil for the 7 of them that paid the extra dollar for power play) aint too shabbyComment -

#131So that means that 3 out of the 33 had the first five had the PB number. Isn't that actually a surprisingly high %? I believe there's 26 numbers. So shouldn't there be 25 mini-winners to every 1 jackpot winner?Originally posted by bettilimbroke999One of the winners was in TN an hour away from me....bought in Munford about 10 miles from my ex-fiance's house....if she hit this lottery I'm gonna have to kill myself.

#133Well again it comes and goes like that there were 10 and 18 match 5 for the last 2 drawings and no winners so yea u would expect 1 or 2 but apparently 10 was a hot # and u got 3 winners obviously 13 wasn't a hot # Saturday as out of 18 match 5's no one had the 13 PB which is interesting bc even though the JP was 950 mil then vs 1.5 bil bc its being split 3 ways had 1 of those 18 of them matched the #13 PB would've won twice as much as these 3 winners...but 13 is certainly not a popular PB# so if ever there was gonna be 18 draws at 26 #s and miss that would probably be it but again most ppl quick pick which is supposedly random so idk just bad luck for the 18 last week and good luck for 3 of the 33 this weekOriginally posted by d2betsSo that means that 3 out of the 33 had the first five had the PB number. Isn't that actually a surprisingly high %? I believe there's 26 numbers. So shouldn't there be 25 mini-winners to every 1 jackpot winner?
The jackpot is now 40 mil....seems like chump change....ya know given that the odds are 1 in 292 mil and a ticket costs 584 mil starting it off at just 40 mil seems beyond ridiculous I mean penetrate sakes start it off at a 100 mil so the lotto just doesn't sit there dead for months making almost nothingComment -

#134Hey Bettil, im pretty sure i read the lady that won went back to work or at least finished her shift that night
Said it was an old nurse or something in California.
Sadly no my friend I did not win, if I had won I would've held up my end of the bargain though. You probably wouldnt have known because I wouldve hid it in your garage or something.

Btw we can't go with finish her shift bc who knows if she even had checked her tickets the bet is whether she ever goes back to work after winning the lottery...lol woulda been hilarious if she was in the middle of surgery and is like penetrate IT I HIT IM OUT BITCHES! PEACE!
I'll give ya the win and send ya 25 betpoints when I turn pro...one of these days I'll hit a parlay or something and send these make a wish or Angelman charities a 100 bucks....what does 800 betpoints get me anyway like an SBR hat?Comment
