I only got the powerball (that's the key) and won 16 because of the 4x power play, so I came out good.

I forgot to re-play today and am panicking if I should drive the 5 miles to re-play or just wait until Wednesday's drawing.

My nightmare is forgetting to re-play and having all the numbers.

I'm getting a premium membership to this site if I win. I'm also buying all the ad space for a year and putting new dad jokes up every few days

Always laugh when people buy 100's of dollars worth of tickets...

I figured 1-300 million chance to win is pretty shitty odds and all it takes is one ticket...


Ill buy $20 when it gets over a billion.

It isnt worth it for a lesser amount.

I bought $20 for this drawing, if I win ill make Chicken an offer he couldnt refuse. And first thing ill change is add "community notes" to certain posters posts.

About two years back I got like three numbers on a massive lottery winnings of over a billion. I was like holy shite all least a couple grand right? Like thirty freaking dollars I was like half the numbers and that's it. I am not wasting another two dollar



I had 3 numbers including the powerball a couple of weeks ago when it was $775 million. I missed the other 3 numbers by just 10 digits combined.

So, yeah I won $7

Nah, you're thinking I had 3 numbers plus the powerball. I only had 2 numbers and the PB. I was close on all of the other numbers, but at the end of the day........$7

We feel our chances may slightly be better buying in GA than in MS

I bought two tickets in Savannah Georgia on Saturday. I didn’t hit a single number. Might wanna cross the river and go into South Carolina!

I wish Powerball was like Keno where you get paid if you play a bunch of numbers and none hit. I can go 5 drawings in a row and hit nothing.

Out of luck then. The after-tax values are less than a billion.

Where you buy tickets has no bearing

At astronomical odds you will have to invest millions to even get anywhere above a 1% chance

There are rich folks running algorithms trying to select winners then they invest large sums trying to win.

Just go spend $2 or ten times this and if fate is on your side, unlikely, then enjoy your new lifestyle.
