question for pros

Would you still play if you won a mega lottery? Say $100,000,000+ cash value.

they would gladly go lose it to Barry G.

[Justin A]

Yes, but I'd probably never play online again.

[MicroBob]

not nearly as much as I do now.

I enjoy playing....but it does become a grind sometimes since I HAVE to play to pay the bills.

My online play would decrease significantly.
I would be interested in playing more of the big-money tournaments in some of the niftier locations.


I could also see me pulling a Bill Gates of sorts (supposedly...the multi-billionaire has been known to play $3/$6)


None of this is very likely to happen though....mostly because I don't play the lottery (I'm generally opposed to -EV games....especially games with REALLY high -EV).

id probably never play online, and i would rarely play in cash games. i would probably retire to hawaii and travel the wsop circuit.

[JohnnyHumongous]

Absolutely not, except perhaps purely for a larf.

A larf?

100 MILLION dollars? Are there any such lotteries? (Yes, I realize that your question was hypothetical, I'm just wondering.)

[Jeffage]

There are such lotteries frequently in the United States. Multi state games have jackpots that roll over when no one wins, so they grow and grow. I should know since the "Powerball" game was at 129 million last night (Trip Report: I lost). It'll be $159 million on Saturday. There have been $300 million jackpots.

Hell yeah, in fact I'd play even more, and probably at high stakes, and I'd probably be a fish too [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
