When is the drawing? And the cutoff to buying tickets?

Depends on your state. Down here, it is 10 p.m. Central time to draw and 9 p.m. Central to purchase.

Go to Powerball.com for more information.

I don't agree with #27, good luck to collecting if your ticket hits. That's why paypal doesn't allow lottery payments.

Everyone is a good guy until they have $200+ million sitting on their IKEA desk.

Does it really MATTER whether the effing jackpot is $100M, $200M or $400M?

I am always just amazed how dumb people are...

Is the logic behind this like "Well...$100M jackpot....MEH...not gonna play - $400M jackpot? Wow, that's something, now let's get some tickets..."

Seriously...facepalm when you see people lining up for tickets "because the JP is at $400M"....

I will agree with you this one and only time.

The ironing is delicious. Why don't you start with EV and work your way up from there.

It's odds bro. Nearly a half billion is much better than $100 million.

They related my blog post to my paypal account, and also said listed out a few transactions where people said for the lotto...and as we found out last time, lotteries are against pp ToS.

Is everyone doing quick pick or picking your own numbers?

I used a special algorithm to determine the moment at which to have the lottery machine pick my numbers.



*note: the above statement guarantees that if I win 400 million, I'll make an additional million from morons dumb enough to buy a pamphlet on how I picked my numbers.

^^^Not sure but I don't play very often. I did throw a couple bucks in this time. The pot was just to big to pass up.
