So if I took $500,000 cash & immediately put it

Didn't some Australians do that a couple years back... Spend enough money to buy one ticket of every possible combination?

Just hit quick pick button 500,000 times

That would also require you have 500,000 unique number combinations.

I like the chances of that happening.

I have no clue what 2caret18 equates to. Leave your l33t mind tricks out of this.

Well, yeah. I was thinking best case scenario, if not practically. Good point.

That's the easy part. You also have to take into account all the non-jackpot winnings: 3 numbers, 4 numbers, etc.Why the fuck would you play the same combinations more than once? If you hit the jackpot with 3 tickets, you get to split the jackpot 3 ways, with yourself.

Been awhile since I took probability theory. I'm not in the mood to work that up!

Because quick pick doesn't have your best interests at heart. So he could also split $0 500,000 ways...there are more than 500K number combo...you know that right?
