S-B Powerball Pool - Jackpot Est 400mil

S-B Powerball Pool? Supposed to be around 400Mil (Cash option just over of 240)

3 tickets = $6 (not 2 not 5 but THREE ) - name them "Striped-Bass.com" or "S-B PB Pool" & your username and take a photo. Post the photo on this thread here.

If we win, 85% is split among those that submitted a ticket photo. S-B gets 15% to purchase 2(+) fishing houses, one on Block, one on the canal, ( maybe more how about CR?) + site gets setup as a non-profit forevah - and we help fisheries stuff

Photos and tickets in by 8PM Wednesday.

here's mine. I heard the odds are like 290,000,000 to 1. We should buy all combos and take a chance we are the only winner.

If we win a $1,000,000 am I gonna have to share a room w/John?

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

Just a question. If someone wins $1M, do we also split that or are our entries just for the jackpot?

JR???

My $.02

Any prize of $50k and up gets split amongst those entered that drawing.

If Jackpot is NOT won, the lesser winning tickets (less than 50k) are reinvested in the pool until jackpot is won. But you must re-enter for each subsequent drawing to share in any subsequent winnings.

If jackpot IS won, ticket holder keeps any winnings (max would be 100.00)
Unless we want to roll it over into the megamillions which is currently around 165 million......

I think we set a minimum - I like Ross's idea with a small mod.

If under 100 and no jackpot, roll into new tickets for the new jackpot.

If any ticket wins over $100,000 we split. Under 100K after taxes and divvying up payout would not be worth it. 1 million would be worth divvying up. So between 101 and #99,999 it goes to the holder of the ticket - sound fair?

Prizes go from 100 to 50k to 1 million. That's why I proposed as I did.

Seems fair enough to me! So were up to $500 mil.

Odds from site
Match + Powerball Probability Top Prize
5 + 1 1 in 292,201,338.00* JACKPOT
5 1 in 11,688,053.52 $1,000,000
4 + 1 1 in 913,129.18 $50,000
4 1 in 36.525.16 $100
3 + 1 1 in 14,842.11 $100
3 1 in 579.76 $7
2 + 1 1 in 701.32 $7
1 + 1 1 in 91.97 $4
0 + 1 1 in 38.32 $4

* Overall odds are 1 in 24.8671
* Prizes based on a $2 wager.
* The jackpot will be divided evenly among winners.


If I counted right we have 17 in X3 numbers each which ups our overall odds to51 in 24.8671

I will also sweeten the deal. If I win the jackpot on my "non-pool" ticket I will personally buy the fishing houses for the site

Simplify.......
