You got me thinking about my own RF drought. It is well over 100,000 hands, likely close to 200,00. Why I still keep going to AC is mystifying.

I heard the odds expressed as:
You choose one exact second in all of the elapsed time for the past 9.5 years and that equals the odds of hitting the jackpot.
Good news! It's actually only about 9 1/4 years, so you can eliminate three months from consideration. Consult the RSG- random second generator if you can't decide on a particular second.

I suggest the exact second you decided to go on your last A/C trip. That way, when you win, you won’t have to worry about bankroll because you won’t have to short coin anymore on your dollar play! 😊

I happened to hit a max quad yesterday. Of course, all Resorts winnings were obliterated by Harrah’s. As for the drawing, I managed one number of a possible 25 on my five games. So another ten flushed. But with the MO and TX wins, I will not be making further donations for a long while.

Forget the Mega, especially since the hike to $5 tickets. PowerBall is over $1.6B!

Yep. Personally, I think it was a bad move to hike the price to five dollars. People are more likely to buy several of the cheaper tickets and spend more than five bucks anyway. At five bucks a shot some people that used to buy tickets won’t buy any and some will buy just one that’s my opinion anyway for whatever that’s worth.
