[ QUOTE ] yet another retard uses +EV in a -EV fashion.... [/ QUOTE ] huh? [/ QUOTE ] Why do you guys even pay attention to this guy. He's a 20+ year old gamer with a Dawson's Creek avatar. What can he post that is going to be worth reading anyway. If I wasn't such a nice guy he'd already be on ignore.

yet another retard uses +EV in a -EV fashion.... [/ QUOTE ] maybe I'm just not getting the concept... posted odds from Mega-Millions website: odds of hitting 5 numbers +1 mega-ball (Jackpot) = 1 in 175,711,536 current jackpot: 200,000,000 ++ If you were to purchase 1 ticket, for $1, then it is +EV, no? If you are splitting shares like the OP, then it isn't? Either way, the implied odds are worth the gamboool.
