We beat the odds again!

As the jackpot approaches towards the $100 million dollar mark, the KW Lottery Pool beat the odds again winning $35 this evening - thanks to the help of the powerplay option quintupling our $7 win. We got the powerball right in one set but then matched two other numbers with it. Doesn't sound like a big deal until you consider the odds of doing that are about 1 in 290! So out of every 290 tickets you'd randomly generate numbers you might get a matching number set like that. We did it with only 48 picks. Not too shabby!

As before, I will take a portion of our combined earnings and continually increase our total number picks as the jackpot rises with each drawing.

We now are only $3 short of a total pool history earnings of $1000!

Be sure and read the post below this one, it contains some information about an accounting error that affected the posted banked balances of members.
