Blog readers will be aware after last week’s blog post that the Powerball game has now been drawn for the past few weeks and no punters have matched the five main numbers plus Powerball and therefore the Powerball jackpot is increasing draw by draw then it probably warrants some attention and due diligence.
However whilst the Powerball game has been attracting attention the Lotto Central team have also noticed that our other favourite Lottery game from across the pond , the Megamillions game is also beginning to look interesting !
The Megamillions numbers drawn on Friday 19th September were 16-25-27-29-43 with the number of the Megaball being 02 . In Friday night’s draw no ticket holders matched the five main numbers and Megaball and thus the $72 million jackpot was not won . This was the eight time in a row that the Megamillions jackpot had not been won which means that Tuesday night’s Megamillions jackpot is estimated at $83 million ($48.1 million in cash ).
In Friday night’s draw there were no ticket holders matching the five main balls and Megaball or even the five main balls on their own . The first winners were the 28 ticket holders who matched four main balls and the Megaball winning $5000 each one of whom had selected the Megaplier option which was 2 on Friday night hence the lucky punter doubled their winnings to $10,000.( Six of the 28 winners were located in California which operates a different payment system – these ticket holders won $3,204 each ).
With such a large jackpot up for grabs the perplexing question for the Lotto Central team is whether to play the Megamillions game on a single ticket or as part of a Lottery Syndicate. There is of course any easy answer to this perplexing question – do both !
