This is kinda last minute for tomorrow\'s drawing, but I\'ll toss it out there anyway in case anyone is interested, and will run another for Saturday if there is no jackpot winner tomorrow:
antbach\'s thebreakfast.info Powerball Pool for Wednesday April 12, 2006 drawing.
Cost: $5.00 per person
Payment info: Cash^ or Paypal (request an invoice FIRST, and do not mention Powerball, Lottery, Gambling, etc.). If paying by PayPal add 50 cents per $5 to cover fees.
Purchase info:
All payments must be received by 6:00pm EST Wednesday. I will purchase computer quick picks Wednesday evening at approximately 6:30pm.
I will post all ticket numbers to all players in a mass Private Message after the last batch is purchased on Wednesday.
If we win: If one of the tickets wins the jackpot, all players who payed for the pool will be required to meet in either Rhode Island on a select date and time to be determined so we can claim our prize as a group; a lawyer will be contacted prior to public announcement. The payout will be a LUMP SUM payment.
Other prizes: Note that tickets will not include the $1 extra for Power Play. Please visit http://ctlottery.org/powerball.htm#POWERBALL for payout table for non-jackpot winning tickets. Non jackpot prize amounts up to $100 will be donated to .info ($22 last time). Non jackpot prize amounts over $100 will be split evenly (after taxes, if applicable) between the players.
To play, contact me through .info PM, AIM - Ant8tnA, email - abachinski@snet.net, or phone (203) 214-5627.
^For those going to The Century Lounge on Saturday and want to play in the Wednesday drawing, I will front the money for you and you can pay me in person at the show.
The names below will be updated with confirmed (as in I have them written down and are on my list) people. If you have tryed to contact me and do not see your name on the list as the deadline approaches, CALL ME! Make sure you leave a message with your name and number, I screen my calls.

list updated, but for those who are in already I have a question for ya. as stated above, any prize below $100 will be donated to .info as we did last time. My question is if there is no jackpot winner in tomorrow\'s drawing would you guys/gals want to donate it to .info still or put it towards Saturday\'s drawing (I\'ll have a list of people who are in for tomorrow\'s drawing, and only those people would be eligible for the tickets purchased with tomorrow\'s winnings). Personally I think its a good idea, but can also become a headache to the additional people (if any) for Saturday\'s pool (if there is one), mostly due to the "how do you know the winning ticket was with the $20 from Wednesday\'s winnings?" scenario (though I have a way around this if needed).
-
SOUNDS GOOD!!!
Can we get out % of earnings put under our donation on .info? ;)
-

I like this idea a lot!!!

to me the $5 is worth it knowing I won\'t be the 1 member kicking themselves in the ass if we hit it.
Think of all the times people at a job or whatever hit the lottery. You know theres atleast 1 guy/gal who didn\'t cough up the few bucks and is sitting there while the rest of his former co-workers is becoming wealthy.
Thats got to be the biggest kick in the balls eva!

PM me, I\'ll send you my adress and you can send me a $5 bill if you\'d like, make sure you have it post marked with tomorrow\'s date (meaning, go INSIDE the post office and have them stamp it). Or, maybe it\'s time to see what PayPal is all about ;)
-
I can really use this. I fucking hate work.

Go sign up. It\'ll work with your credit card / check card (if it has a visa or mc logo). After that you can set it up to work directly from your checking account if you want to. It\'s pretty self explanatory, they\'ll guide you through it. Shoot me your email address and I\'ll send you an invoice, and seeing as you don\'t have an account they\'ll probably go through the set up proccess step by step with ya.

being the one person who dissed the lottery pool in work and knowing that the fat lazy shit who sits next to you never has to work, all because you wanted to save $5 and buy lunch, lol, while they sit in the sun on an island beach, you sit in a cube behind a computer. :loads gun:

I just want more of a chance to win something. I\'m not greedy, I don\'t need the entire jackpot, so I am more than willing to split it with others, and rather than having 5 chances to win $220 million I get 50+ to win $22 or so million. And after reading the story of last time\'s winners of how they would throw in $5 each drawing when the jackpot was over $50 million I decided I would start a .info pool every time it gets over $200 million, so here we are, heh.
Anyway, update. We are stuck at 10 players/50 tickets. If anyone else wants in on tonight\'s drawing you have approx 2.5 hours to do so!
-
alright, alright.... i don\'t want to be THAT guy. put me in, wanna paypal me or can i just hand you my money on Sat.

nope, almost though, check your email inbox for an invoice for ".info stickers"
Alright, on the way to buy the winner. total count 12 players / 60 tickets. Expect a mass PM with ticket numbers sometime tonight before the drawing. GOOD LUCK PEOPLE!

There was one winning jackpot ticket sold in the state of Missouri, maybe it was one of those St. Louis people from last month. As for us, we suck. We have a total of ONE winning ticket for a .info donation total. . . wait for it. . . $4.00! Thanks for playing guys and girls and keep a watch out for the next time the jackpot hits the $200 million range.
