I don't play the PB, but I can see the entertainment value in that $2.00 venture. I've stated my opinion on the lottery which is: I really have no problem with the concept of a lottery or the people who play it. No excuse for the bad math bet, but it's still better odds than 0x152,400,450 or whatever.
But 'If you don't play, you can't win.' I'm not a regular player, but I get seduced by 9 digit jackpots sometimes and have to buy a ticket.
