    Like when the pot is super small? I buy a ticket maybe once every few years to dream and chat with my friend about what we’d do, etc etc

      i’d literally have to run the numbers. pot versus ticket price versus specific odds of ticket that day. you become more lotto obsessed than the people who just do scratchers. it’s the same kind of actuarial bullshit the people running the numbers do.
