  5. total sale of the tickets has been slow; it'd need to get up to ~$600M, so all possible combinations would be purchased. even the jackpot on Wed was 1.3 billion, though only ~180 millions of tickets were sold.

    LOL, I admit to taking a shot with $8/ 4 tickets this weekend. I had not one single number. Lotto is a state sponsored scam to screw the poor out of more money without them realizing they are essentially paying taxes. Lady in front of me rang up $100 in scratch offs and then bought a boat load of Powerball. She then hopped in a beaten-up SUV with no license plates.

    i find it funny when the jackpot reaches epic heights people get into a frenzy as if

    10,50 or 100 million isn't enough for them. lol
