Ningún boleto comprador contenía los seis números de la lotería Powerball tras el sorteo del sábado por la noche, en el que se ofrecía un premio gordo récord de casi 950 millones de dólares, según indicaron los responsables de la lotería. La noticia preparó el escenario para un nuevo sorteo en el que el bote podría ascender a 1,300 millones de dólares.
Con la de posibles ventas que tendría un bote de 950 millones de dólares, que a nadie le tocase demuestra lo baja que es la probabilidad de ganar en este tipo de juegos.
#1 Nó, no se puede jugar por Internet. Sólo son válidos los boletos emitidos por un terminal de venta autorizado dentro de EEUU. Lo pone en su pagina oficial. Ojo que hay mucho fraude con ese tema:
CAN I BUY POWERBALL TICKETS THROUGH THE INTERNET?
No. Start with that answer and then slowly back into "sometimes". Gambling is illegal in the United States. A State has the right to gamble or create a lottery ONLY within its borders. When a game or information about a game cross a state line, or the national border, then it falls into federal jurisdiction. So, some lotteries do sell TO THEIR RESIDENTS through the Internet but not across their state line. Powerball tickets can only legally be purchased at a state lottery sales terminal in the lottery jurisdictions that sells the Powerball game. A lottery can also legally sell tickets on the Internet, but only to persons within its own state. No one can sell lottery tickets by mail or over the Internet across state lines or the U.S. national border. No one except the lottery or their licensed retailers can sell a lottery ticket. No one. Not even us. No one. No, not even that web site. Or that one. You really don't need to send me questions about a specific site. None of them can legally sell lottery tickets across a state border or the U.S. border. No.
Law prevent the SALE (exchange of consideration) of any interest in the outcome of a gambling event. If you are not buying from a licensed retailer in teh state or from the state lottery site (within the borders of that state), then you should not expect to be able to collect your prize. There are no regulations of websites that claim to sell tickets or to sell you a "service" to buy and hold tickets for you. Many lotteries believe that they would violated state and federal laws is they paid on those tickets purchased (if actually purchased) by an unlicensed reseller.
You can legally travel to another state, buy a ticket, and bring it back to your home state (at least I believe that no state now has a law forbidding the possession of a lottery).
CAN I PLAY POWERBALL FROM OUTSIDE THE STATE OR THE U.S.?
No. Repeat as necessary. If that changes, we will say "yes" here and tell you how.
¿A nadie le parece una salvajada que una única persona acapare 1.300 millones de dólares? Quien dice que 'se lleve' dice que 'posea', aunque lo hubiese conseguido (ejem) a base de desplegar sus habilidades de forma brillante, ética y legal.

#2 1 entre 252 millones creo que lei por ahi
#3 Yo calculo 1 entre 2: te toca o no te toca.
#3 Si el boleto cuesta menos de $4 merece la pena jugar.
#8 Creo que cuesta $2.
Ahora te sale a cuenta comprar todos los boletos emitidos, lo malo sería dejarte uno y que fuera el premiado
¿Se puede comprar por internet? ¿Se paga impuestos en EEUU y en España? ¿Si gano saldré a pagar? Dios, cuanto estrés.

#7 a mi me parece una salvajada... si no soy yo.
Mientras lo consiga de modo legal,y sin hacer daño a nadie,no le veo nada negativo
Mañana voy al 7 Eleven a comprar varios .
A ver la web para comprar online el impuesto este, estaria gracioso que se lo llevase un guiri al otro lado del charco.
El asunto es estar en la tombola ... a ver si pegamos.
