Wow.....only 86%. That's lower than I had anticipated.
That's because people who decide to pick the numbers themselves, usually use a combination of numbers from 1-31. And when the number of white balls go up to 69, many combinations are left out. If quick picks were the only choice, then a higher percentage of possible combinations would have been selected with so many people playing. I'm not a statistician, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night!

I thought it was a high percentage.
Watching the news and a bunch of people outside a 7-eleven store where the ticket was sold. I don't understand why? but I believe, the owner gets at least 1 million dollars for selling the winning ticket.

Unfortunately, I had no luck at all.
