IF NO ONE WINS WEDNESDAYS POWER BALL?

IF NO ONE WINS WEDNESDAY POWER BALL YOU THINK THE PAYOUT FOR SATURDAY WOULD EQUALLY 1 in 195,249,054.00 SO I CAN BUY 1 TICKET MAYBE OR DO YOU THINK I MIGHT HAVE TO WIAT TILL JAN 2010 TO GET THE RIGHT ODDS

Update:

MERRY XMASS TO ALL

Update 2:

true PDQ but it never get that high

see they are really cutting the odds pay out on us ... we said before lotteries are 100% ripp off

Update 3:

patrick we know that lol this is a joke that i started when the powerball was at 70 mill i ask some one below if we should but it when the odds was right ...but i really didnt think that we would be really buying 2 ticket for dec 26 if no one win

my reason to begin with is all lotteries are a scam to rob us and give us false hope

    I never Play the power ball unless its over 100 million. It is just stupid to do so when odds are 195mill-1. even if you win 100million and take a lump sum you will only clear about 33 Million after they take half and tax it.

    mrwonderful - first of all, wtf are you doing up at this hour of the night?!? Second of all, what am I doing up at this hour, too?!? :\

    Third of all, YOU'RE MAKING ME MENTAL WITH YOUR CAPS LOCK!!! It's dizzying to see everything in caps lock! AAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

    OK - I'm over it. ;)

    Technically speaking, if we have a 1 in 195,249,054 shot, we shouldn't buy a ticket until the jackpot is almost $400 million! Of course that's because they only give you about 1/2 if you take the 'lump-sum' payment. (That's not even counting taxes!)

    Go to bed! I'm sending you a CAPS LOCK button for Christmas!!! :P

    you will have a greater probability of demise in a vehicle twist of destiny on a thank you to purchase your cost ticket than your probability of triumphing the skill-ball. there is an possibility of triumphing, yet there's a lots better probability of demise ina vehicle twist of destiny.
