Jackpots Archives

That’s right guys, you read that right. Australia’s Tuesday OzLotto has just  hit a colossal $70M! OK, that’s not huge compared to some of the jackpots you see in some of the lotteries you see in other countries, the USA MegaMillion for example, but it’s quite sizeable by Aussie standards.

Winning Tuesday’s Oz Lotto Lottery

Naturally to win Tuesdays Oz Lotto lottery you have to participate and the best most secure way to do that is to buy your ticket online. Newly built large house, Federation styleSure it may cost you a little bit more but that pales to insignificance when you consider all the positives for doing so. Like not having to wait in line, having to put up with some of those rude lottery agents, and the security of knowing you can’t lose your winning ticket. Then there’s always the fact that you can do it from the comfort of your own home as well as all the petrol money you will save by not having to drive to a lottery agent.

The best place for an Aussie to buy their ticket online would be to use Oz Lotteries! That is of course unless you’re from Queensland who are for some reason excluded. But don’t worry guys, all is not lost as you can still use theLotter.com, PLAYHUGELOTTOS.COM and LottoZone. There are other advantages of joining one of those sites, the main one being able to play the biggest international lotteries all on one site!

So, remember guys, when it comes to winning the lottery, and that includes Tuesdays OZ Lotto, you have to be in it to win it. Naturally I’m not about to tell you guys to buy a ticket without buying one myself which I did just after publishing this post. Being an Aussie I used   Oz Lotteries but another reason for using them is because they accept PayPal and I love being able to use PayPal to buy my online lottery tickets!  :2tup:

Now that is a sizeable amount of money up for grabs but even so I probably wouldn’t have bought into this weeks Powerball lottery if it wasn’t for the sweetener that theLotter.com sent me via this email.

What Is Power Play In Powerball?

I’m glad you asked  :C: I didn’t know myself and so I did a bit of a search and found out that by using Power Play players have are able to increase their Powerball prizes. Purchasing the Power Play option allows winning players to boost their Powerball prizes by 2, 3, 4 or 5 times the original prize amount. Oh, and before you get too excited, Power Play does not work on the Jackpot, but then that would be greedy wouldn’t it?  :giggle:

Naturally you have to select this feature before purchasing the actual ticket. As you can see from the image below I made sure I took advantage of the Power Play feature.

my powerball purchase

I did this by ensuring I ticked the Power Play box before clicking the Buy button. I know that the chances of actually winning the lottery is pretty slim and that I had more chance of winning the smaller prizes so I thought I may as well increase my winnings just in case I do win one of the lower prizes. So, you see, for a small extra fee you can increase how much you get when you do win one of the smaller prizes. As you can see, I got my ticket, have you got yours?

In my last post, Using A Horoscope To Pick Your Lottery NumbersI showed you how I used PLAYHUGELOTTOS.COM Horoscope feature to pick one of the games in last night’s € 74,918,000 SuperEnaLotto. Before I get to that though here are the results to last nights draw.

Lottery Results For SuperEnaLotto

As to my results, I got them in an email this morning.

OK, as you can see I didn’t actually win anything and the game that got the most winning numbers was the last one which had nothing to do with my horoscope numbers as that only produced one winning number. Still, that’s better than nothing at all so maybe it deserves another shot.

As to the next SuperEnalotto draw…..

Three Winners In the Mega Millions Biggest Ever Jackpot

And guess what I wasn’t one of them  :tdwn: But you know what, I don’t really care because at least I know I gave it a shot. Yep, I gave it a shot and lost but even though there were millions who also took a chance there were many more millions that didn’t and they will never know whether or not they could have been millionaires right now.

Still, enough of that, let’s take a look at the winning numbers and what the dividends were.

There were actually three winners in Draw # 2012/26 who will collect $213 million each before taxes. There were also three other winners who instantly became millionaires. We can only hope that they’re all able to deal with their winnings wisely because if you remember from my post on What To Do With Your Lottery Winnings winning the lottery is not always a good thing if you’re not careful with with the way you utilise your sudden fortune.

According to the Yahoo NewsSite Americans spent nearly $1.5 billion for a chance to hit the jackpot and that the;

Illinois’ winner used a quick pick — an automatically generated set of digits — to select the winning numbers at a convenience store in the small town of Red Bud, south of St. Louis, Illinois Lottery spokesman Mike Lang said. The winning numbers also were purchased at a 7-Eleven in Milford Mill, Md., north of Baltimore, and somewhere in northeast Kansas.

Damn, I used a quick pick as well but lucked out this time around, but what the heck, there is always next time. At least I didn’t have to line up with the multitudes, fight the crowds being jostled by those smelling of perspiration who didn’t shower that day. Nope I got my tickets from the comfort of my home because I bought it online using theLotter.com. I’m also happy in the knowledge that I didn’t have to worry about losing my ticket, especially if it was the winner.

OK, now to see if I won the Aussie Lotto, sure it was only worth $21 million but even that is something worth winning .
