Well gentlemen, there was a winner in Chino Hills, California.

And Florida and Tennessee.

I'm interested to know how many of the possible combinations sold. Last drawing was like 75% or something I read, which was way less than I imagined.

That means the guy in California has lost more than he won since there are 3 winners now.

Thing is, we were talking about our state lottery and thinking that even if you won two million dollars, that's basically a house and a car outright, and then you're middle class again

Lost more than he won?

Lost more than he won?

By 2 other people winning he "lost" 600 million and "only" gets 300 million.

Oh okay, was confused.

That doesn't mean he lost more than he won though. Just didn't win as much.

I got $8 from my $40 spent. All about that Kwik Trip breakfast this morning.

Going to go with annuities for my $4 on my $10 ticket. I'd get too crazy with all that cash.

Big update guys. I missed a winner and actually won $15. I got some cash back after my breakfast burrito. Livin' the dream.

Between the 25 we got at work and the 4 I got myself, I think I matched one number on like five of them

Those million dollar winners could have doubled to 2 million if they had spent the extra $1 on the PowerPlay.

I know. It was really just a joke.

Just wanted 2 powerballs, but only had a 10 and the customer service desk at the grocery store wasn't open that early in the morning, so just put my 10 in the machine and bought a couple of the $3 variety for the multiplier. Won nothing on those, but with my 4 extra dollars, I bought a mega, a pick(AZ lottery) and a couple Fantasy 5's. Won 52 bucks on those.

I was thinking before they drew that I have to assume there will be multiple winners, and if I did somehow win expect to "only" be getting 100-300 million.
