8th Straight Winning Session for Pool!

The Powerball website is reporting someone won the jackpot last night - so we'll try again in about 3 weeks.

Due to a lousy low 2x multiplier this evening we only won $28. But that was on three successful number pick sets - one containing two correct white balls plus the correct power ball. Odds of doing just that right are 1 in 745 and we still had two more winning sets - making the odds close to 1 in 1000 total that we'd pick those winning numbers right by chance! Yet we did it in 52 picks!

I only threw in an extra $5 from our continuing to grow lottery pool winning bank - now at a total of $100 - so as the jackpot climbs? So will our chances at winning more cash because we'll be selecting more pick sets as it grows higher. And if the spreadsheet continues to consistently generate at least a few right numbers together....who knows, we might get our first big win of the year! Keep your fingers crossed!

Banked balances and payments are up to date and reflect paid status for the drawing on or around October 17th.
