In response to "I'm sure he just means the Mega number. -- nm" by JaxSean

Exactly... having the Megaball makes a huge difference

Cause if you have two or three other numbers and the Megaball, that's already a prize payout.... although I'm not sure $10 divided 65 ways is going to be that worth it. I do think this is an interesting play, 510 tickets with the grand prize split 65 ways. I did the math and I figured that for every dollar you spent, you'll end up with over $300,000 minimum so if you spent $5 in this pool, that's $1.5 million. You definitely improve your odds with that many tickets although you do have to figure that there must be 50 people in 43 states that will buy 10 tickets each... and none of them have won yet, so it can't be that easy even with improved odds. Anyway, good luck... I can't wait to see all 65 of you on the news trying to explain how this works if you win! :)
