i had a surprise this evening....

I won 10 bucks from a previous lotto from a few weeks back. I had checked it yesterday I think and I calculated it to be about 2 bucks.. the guy keys it in and says "what do you want?". I go "its only 2 bucks so give me 2 bucks quick pick.". then he prints it out and sure enough it was 10 bucks.. I was surprised.. so I promptly got another 10 bucks of quick pick at 26 annual payments.

I doubt if I will win with my luck being so low. I hate lotto cause I dont have control over the odds other than the fact I plunker down more money. I prefer lasvegas where my gambling strategy paid off really nice last year.

I want something where I know what I am doing, I hate the unknown.. lotto = unknown areas where I in general dont want to adventure.

but how do you calculate how much you win from 2 numbers or whatever? 🙂

and do they have to be in order?

hm thanks🙂 and so according to that you win a something based on total amount even if you have only one number right? a buck back i suppose right? 😛

and the numbers have to be in the same order i suppose. it doesn't say but i guess logically...

if the mega number on your ticket matches the drawn mega number, you get $1 back.

No, they don't have to be in the same order. Order of the other 5 numbers doesn't matter. 🙂
 
I'll start to collect money for the California Lottery Pool.
Since there was no winner yesterday. I will need the money by Friday, 8/23 at 4PM. That is the latest I will take it. I will scan you guys a copy of the winning numbers that night. Since this is a spur of the moment thing, I will only take PayPal. Whoever is interested, please PM me. Again...I will check my PayPal account at 4PM tomorrow Pacific Time...that 7PM for you East Coast folks.

it will be split up by how much you put in. Say there is 100 tickets total. If Bob buys $5 worth of tickets, he will get 5% of the total winnings. And Mary who just put in $2 will get 2% of the winnings. So...its all up to you how much you want to put into the pool. 🙂
