RE: 1st Newsletter

Welcome to the 36th Edition of Mega Millions Lottery Pool.

Well I can not believe after three years of running this pool, that we have not won the Jack Pot. And I’ve had my share of headaches, trust me.

This group is entirely separate from Game 35. This was a suggestion from one of my members and I accepted this advice.

In game 35 we had won $884 in wins. I could have easily transferred $600 over to this game. Everyone would have had ½ share of what they paid for in Game 35. I thought everyone would be happy.

I would have thought everyone would have been pleased that with the $1,200 I spend I gain back $884.00. But, I was wrong.

So while you’re playing your game, Game 35 is competing against you. Now the vast majority of you are in both games, so you really don’t care which game wins. Here is the breakdown:

Game 35 Pot totals $884.00

Game 36 Pot totals $450.00

Game 35 is starting with 45 lines megaplied.

Game 36 is NOT megapling (I did this to avoid having anyone think I switched tickets between games. I also purchase their tickets earlier than yours, and I have already release their only newsletter.)

Game 36 has 45 lines, and they keep 45 lines the entire time they are playing.

So for all of you playing in Game 35 and Game 36 the next two drawings you have 90 lines of tickets. You have more if you are member of Die Hard Multi-Draw Pool Game XVI. And last, but not least, if you are one of the few who are members of Both Mega Million Games, Die Hard and J & M Lotto Pool, you all have over 100 lines for entire time this game last, and on the 15th, you get more tickets!

Now all of you are experience players so I don’t have to explain a lot to you. Everyone in this group is easy to play with. You don’t mind the updates; in fact you like my stories and jokes.

You all know that I’m your lottery host. I purchased all the tickets today @ Kroger on Cedar Springs. You know your playing for 10 drawings with the same numbers. And for those of you who gave me numbers to play in this game, I forgot to print that list so some of your numbers may not be playing in the 1st drawing. I’m sorry about that.

All of your numbers are Quick Pick. Okay, I know they do not look like Quick Pick, so let me explained.

I had all the expire tickets from Game 35. They had done so good on their tickets, that I selected many many lines from their old tickets. Hopefully they will continue to pay off.

Now one of our members, Abu Baba buys tickets for Mega Millions, Lotto Texas and sometimes Cash Five. Abu never checks his tickets and gives them to me to check them for him.

Now occasionally Abu wins a small sum, and I give him the money back with his tickets. This time, I ask Abu if I could keep his expired tickets. The reason for that is because those few times, I check his tickets on line, I see where his numbers have won $40, $150.00, and one time one of his tickets won $150,000.00. But Abu never wins these amounts because he buys one night only tickets. One $1.00 ticket for one drawing, if Abu had purchase multi-draw tickets he would have won some big money.

Now I did not have time to check any of his expired tickets on-line, I just kept his tickets so I could give his numbers to you. By the way, Abu is playing with us, so if this game wins; he wins (maybe on his own quick pick.)

I did print out the frequency of numbers lists and use that as my guide. There are several cold numbers for the Mega Ball and 26 is still one of those numbers. In fact, 24, 25, 26 and 27 are all very good Mega Balls that need to come up. So, when I was selecting your numbers from the expired numbers in Game 35, I tend to pick the “cold” Mega Balls. Hey this worked for us before; why not continue working the system?

Now I’ve told Mac that he is welcome to e-mail anyone on this list. Any on any of my Texas Lotto Pools, anyone in Die Hard (That spreadsheet looks great!)

But, he will not be e-mailing on the Game 35 list.

Generally speaking Mac is up before me, and he has all of our numbers typed in the spreadsheet, and when he puts in the winning numbers, the spreadsheet will tell him how much we won and on which line. So if you get an e-mail before my update arrives, with “Unofficial Wins on Mega Millions Lottery Pool – Game 36”, or something of that nature, I would recommend you open it and open the link to his spreadsheet.

Okay, now for the good stuff.

This game has $450.00 worth of tickets, so your shares in this game total 45.

The Jack Pot for tonight’s drawing is worth $105 Million. The Cash Option is worth $61 Million. Here is what your payout would look like if we should win tonight:

I’m attaching all of your tickets, newsletter in Word, and Membership List. You will get more than one e-mail from me, because I have a lot of tickets to send.

I’m including a guest on this first mailing. Her name is Marcia Rowe and she runs a pool out of Houston, Texas. I ran out to get a money order tonight, so I can be in her pool. She may be joining us in September for Mega Millions Lottery Pool – Game 37!

I will tell her that she is invited to write to any of you if she has any questions about how I run my pools.

Good luck, Ladies and Gentlemen. I feel bless to have this many of you playing with me, and to have this many tickets in so many games. I’m bound to hit one of these days.

Michael
