That's why I asked, because honestly I don't know.. Is it totally random each time or is it pulling from a pool of possibilities until all are taken? Regardless, I know there's a shite ton of people that fill their own in with their personal "lucky numbers", so I could see that bringing the odds down.

I know it's supposed to be random, so one set of quick picks is not relative to another

I am confused with the odds though, they say there is a 1 in 297,000,000 chance to win yet there are 580+ million combinations

I doubt that quick picks hand out combinations like 1-2-3-4-5-powerball

For that reason there are odds it can't be a QP

That's a lump sum of $806 million and $486 million after federal tax

I honestly have no idea what I'd do with that much

They're rigging the Powerball drawings over and over until they raise enough money to pay off our national debt.

I matched 1 number. Not the powerball. Just one number. Out of 10 quick picks.
