I've been buying Lottery tickets since 1993 when it started and have done OK over the years.

Today I've been trying to buy a ticket online but every time I tried to log into my account, I got this page:

And I have the 6 winning numbers!

Just reading about the lucky 'B' who won the jackpot. Apparently the number of balls were increased last October from 49 to 59.
'According to mathematicians, the extra balls have reduced the odds of a player getting six numbers from about one in 14 million to one in 45 million'. Don't know why I bother. :-(
