Get some tickets the drawing is tomorrow night. Especially if you have been struck by lightning before.

Wouldn't you have a better chance of winning more if there's a smaller jackpot?
If there's a huge jackpot, a lot more people will be playing than usually, and the odds of having to share the jackpot with someone else will be a lot higher. Probably.

People around my area are buying around $200 minimum of plays.
I wouldn't really call it a tax for stupid people but the odds of you winning are extremely low. As said by mathematicians, you have a better chance of getting hit by lightning while drowning than winning this.

There's a negative expected value on your return when you try to play the lottery long term. Some people invests into lottery ticket but you actually end up losing money after taxes. I use same math when I play poker. When I calculate if playing a hand is worth it.

this seems to make intuitive sense but it can also not. afaik you can just have one person playing, still the 1 in 300k chance, and that one person lose. imagine random number generator that generates 5 random numbers between 1-100. that would have a fixed chance instead of decreasing with players.

Well the chance of winning stays the same, but since more people are playing the chance of someone else winning too increases. So the chance of you having to split the prize with other people increases. So it's as if the prize decreases, or your chance of winning more decreases (you still have the same chance of winning but a much smaller chance of winning the full prize).
