Just go buy it.

Sorry, no analysis.

[BettingGeek]

At $1 a piece, it's a bargain of the century.

"The odds of winning the jackpot are about one in 176 million, according to the lottery organizers."

So, each ticket should worth more than $2

At $1/tic, it's a +EV bet.

Never played the lotto..I'm guessing you pick 6 numbers ranging from 1-99 and all 6 have to match?

Hopefully it wasn't from last week.

With all the people buying tickets, its unlikely, but there's actually value at 355 million with 1 in 176 million odds, if there's no split pot

[Dad]

Pretty sure I have the winning ticket in my pocket. I will let you guys know tomorrow. If I win, I will be buying SBR and making a few changes around here. Nothing major.

That is for powerball. I knew it had to be ****** up. I would of bet my whole account if it would of been +670 for mega millions. But it is -330. Nothing to bet there.

[BettingWizard]

people are buying 50 and 100 dollar worth of tickets. -330 is good

[whatsgood5]

"sorry, no analysis"

kills me, good stuff.

Anyone have an estimate of what it could potentially be next drawing if someone doesn't hit it this time?
