$975 MILLION: Massive Powerball jackpot increases againNews Story
Easter sales dip might be holding it back By Todd Northrop The near-billion-dollar Powerball jackpot grew again last night, but perhaps not as much as it would have if this weren't Easter weekend. The latest increase of the current lengthy Powerball jackpot run comes after nobody won last night's drawing, sending the Monday jackpot ever closer to heights that once seemed unattainable for a lottery game. Monday's Powerball jackpot is currently estimated at $975 million, with a lu

When is the right time to hang your lottery boots?Reply
Thanks man! I appreciate the reply. I used to do quick pics with my regular number when jackpots where high .But it seemed when I checked previous draws some numbers would be in there. So I stopped buying them. But I can honestly say. My biggest win was from a quick pic on pb. It was a hundred bucks. If I spent the extra buck it would have been three hundred.

New Jersey woman to take legal action against Atlantic City casino after being refused $2.5M payoutReply
She hit the service button on the machine to call for help But on every machine where I got a hand pay win, lights started blinking, the screen showed the amount, and jackpot hand pay required . This story reminds me of the woman believing she won $42,949,672 on a penny slot machine. Not many of the linked multi machines have jackpots that large. How many individual slot machines have you seen that have $2.56 million jackpots?

They put in a key in in for some reason, they ALWAYS tell you to hit play without fail. That employee had no business doing what he did if in fact he did as she stated. Maybe the key
