$70 Million Powerball Jackpot sold by New York Lottery

Monday, February 27th, 2012

Who says that the pumped Powerball lottery doesn’t deliver? Well it’s only just two weeks since the last Powerball jackpot worth $336,400,000 went to a Rhode Island player and now just 14 days later Saturday’s Powerball top prize has delivered SEVENTY MILLION bucks to a New York Lottery player!

So if you haven’t yet checked your Powerball ticket, maybe you should dig it out and take a quick look right away; because if you’ve got the numbers: 6 – 11 – 42 – 53 – 54 and Powerball number 7 lined up across the front and valid for last Saturday’s (Feb. 25) draw then – how can I put this very gently and extremely delicately – YOU’VE SCORED! To be very accurate you’re now SEVENTY MILLION greenbacks ($70,000,000) richer! Now that’s got to come in useful given the way gasoline prices are climbing!

In addition to the jackpot winner – Saturday’s Powerball draw also created 4 new millionaires who matched the 5 main numbers; another 12 players who picked up at least $110,000 apiece by matching 4 mains and the number 7 Powerball and 899 players raked in at least $74,000 by matching 4 mains!

Now if you’re a numerologist, 2012, is of course a leap year! Which means the next Powerball draw will be on Wednesday Feb. 29, known as a leap day! It’s also the 60th day of the Gregorian calendar which leaves us with 306 days remaining until the end of this year. My how time flies! Years containing a leap day are called leap years and with certain exceptions, occur in most years that are evenly divisible by 4, such as 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2016.

What else is significant about Feb. 29? Well it could well be the day that YOUR name goes up in lights in the jackpot winners’ frame – but only if you’ve got a ticket! The place to get that ticket is right here at WinTrillions where you can play the biggest and richest lotteries in the world!  Your name, Feb. 29 and a Powerball jackpot at FORTY MILLION – now that’s a significant match!

James Bay B.C. woman takes THREE MILLION DOLLAR Lotto 6/49 Jackpot!

Saturday, February 18th, 2012

Last Wednesday Feb. 15, legal services agent, 56 year old Barbara Singer from James Bay, Victoria, B.C. nipped into Don’s Market in James Bay to buy a ticket for the Lotto 6/49 draw as well as a “scratch and win” card. Well – guess what – the “scratch and win” came up trumps and she won $25!

The next morning Barbara decided to stop off at the lottery store and pick up her twenty-five bucks intending to use her winnings to buy herself lunch in Victoria; spotted the 6/49 lottery ticket in her wallet and asked the shop assistant to run it through the ticket check machine and – no prizes for figuring out what happened next – those three little words “WINNER, WINNER, WINNER” flashed all over the screen!

Those three little “WINNER” words meant that Barbara had just nailed the top Lotto 6/49 prize worth THREE MILLION, THREE HUNDRED and ONE THOUSAND; SIX HUNDRED and ELEVEN dollars ($3,301,611) after matching all 6 main numbers: 3 – 19 – 21 – 41 – 43 – 47! Once again dispelling the myth that lightning doesn’t strike in the same place twice! Two lucky players matched 5 mains and the bonus number: 9 to win $117,914 each and another 123 players grabbed themselves $1,583 apiece by matching 5 mains.

Lotto 6/49 is played every Wednesday and Saturday; to win the jackpot you just have to match 6 numbers from 1 to 49! Seven balls are drawn at random, the first 6 numbers comprise the “main” winning selection and the 7th ball out is the bonus number.

Remember you can play Lotto 6/49 plus many more of the world’s biggest and richest lotteries from right here at WinTrillions – just click the links and its job done!

At $83,388,000 today’s SuperEnalotto jackpot looks very, very attractive!

Thursday, February 16th, 2012

A man walking along a New Jersey beach was deep in prayer. All of a sudden he said out loud, “God, grant me one wish.” Suddenly the sky clouded above his head and in a booming voice God said, “Because you have had the faith to ask, I will grant you one wish.” The man said, “Build a bridge to Italy, so I can drive over anytime I want to.”

God said, “Your request is very materialistic. Think of the logistics of that kind of undertaking. The supports required to reach the bottom of the ocean! The concrete and steel it would take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of another wish, a wish you think would honour and glorify me.”

The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, “God, I have been married and divorced four times. All of my wives said that I am uncaring and insensitive. Here is my wish: I would like to know how to make a woman happy.”

After a few minutes God said, “You want two lanes or four on that bridge?”

You’ve just got to ask yourself one question – why build a bridge to Italy? Could it be that the guy wants to buy tickets to play SuperEnalotto; Italy’s most popular national lottery game which often produces jackpots of record breaking proportions? The draw takes place every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and is played by millions each week; in order to win you just need to hit 6 numbers from 1 to 90. The highest jackpot payout was a massive $230,241,224 back in October 2010; however unlike many other lotteries around the globe there is NO CAP on the amount of times that a SuperEnalotto jackpot can rollover!

The next SuperEnalotto draw is later today and the jackpot stands at a tasty EIGHTY THREE MILLION, THREE HUNDRED and EIGHTY – EIGHT THOUSAND dollars! So there’s still time to get in on the act; what’s more you don’t really need to build a bridge to drive to Italy in order to buy a SuperEnalotto ticket – you can do that right here at WinTrillions without even leaving your house – on the other hand if you’re serious about driving and you do match the 6 mains then you’ll need an order form for a Lamborghini Reventon – at a mere $1,600,000 it’s a bargain!

$336,400,000 Winning Powerball Ticket – Purchased in Rhode Island

Sunday, February 12th, 2012

Well the excitement builds! Elvis has actually left his job down at the chip shop and is now very definitely IN the building! Powerball Lottery organisers, even as I write, are putting the very best champagne on ice, ordering the tastiest of canapés, hanging bunting on the chandeliers, brushing down the red welcome mat! The reception band’s tuning up their musical instruments, the keys to the very exclusive Multi – Millionaire’s Club are being arranged neatly on the ceremonial red velvet cushion and the paparazzi are buying new batteries to stick into their cameras; all that’s needed at the party is you – so where are you?

If you’ve got a Powerball lottery ticket with the numbers: 1 – 10 – 37 – 52 – 57 and Powerball 11 all neatly lined up across the front, and valid for last night’s draw – then get your coat on a bit sharpish – you’ve SCORED! What’s more you’ve scored big-style to the tune of $336,400,000 that’s THREE HUNDRED and THIRTY-SIX MILLION, FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND bucks if you want to see it in writing rather than in figures – personally I‘m not at all fussed by how it looks on paper – I’d just prefer it in my bank!

So if you haven’t already checked your Powerball tickets then dig them out from your usual hiding places – if you’ve already checked and the numbers line up, then call Powerball Lottery Headquarters right away – dig out your very best Sunday-go-meeting clothes, prepare to be closely united with your winnings and be ready to party, party, party!

Altogether there were 2,427,244 winning tickets for yesterday’s Powerball draw, including eleven players who matched 5 mains to collect $1,000,000 each and another 108 players who picked up at least $1,000 apiece by matching 4 mains and the number 11 Powerball. Is that double’s all round at your local bar then?

The next Powerball draw is on Wednesday Feb. 15, with a new jackpot starting at $40 million – remember you can play Powerball as well many other of the world’s biggest and richest lotteries from right here at WinTrillions.
