What the most you've spent on a single 649 draw?

Did you do it because of what you thought was good research?
Was it a hunch?
Were you desperate for a payout?

Ontario 49

Sometimes I play Ontario 49 combination 7....
15 numbers 6 tickets of combination 7 ($3.50 each for a total of $21)
If I get 3 numbers I get $20 (how often do you get 3 numbers in Super 7?..pretty often)
If I get 4 numbers I get $170 which I haven't had yet.

Sometimes I play Ontario 49 combination 8 and have got 4 numbers twice which pays $380 - needless to say I like the combination 8...I seem to have better luck with it but it costs $14. Both times I won the $380 it was a draw where cold numbers hadn't played much the last few draws and so I played all cold numbers (not all the coldest) and I got lucky...luckier would've been 6 numbers, but oh well.

I've been wanting to play 23 numbers Combination 7 in 16 tickets ($56) - haven't done it yet but I feel like it's a good way to go. One day - if there's been a run of alot of repeat numbers drawn so that I can eliminate those and maybe a run of only 1 or 2 numbers from 6 or more draws ago or the opposite...if there's been a run of cold numbers and I'd play the numbers from the last 6 draws. $56 is not an amount I could part with easily but maybe I'll try it one day. In the mean time I play Ontario 49 in wheels and cross my fingers that I'll hit it either 5/6+bonus or the 6 numbers. I wish all the games were 50 cents!!!!!!!! It's basicaly the only game I can wheel numbers with because of the cost.

So the most has probably been $21 on one game, but I've had weeks where I've over spent and spent over $100 in a week - not worth it - I'm not very good at gambling. I stick to between $15 and $25 a week (in general lol).

oops..rambling again..the question was 'the most on 6/49' spending my groups' money, $120...spending my money $20'ish as for the 'why' well a big pot... when the jp is really big the 5/6+bonus is pretty darn good too.

It seems the estimated JP was 3.5 million in this draw....:confused:...if I remember good, the prices were doubled, and additionally a big % pool money for the lower prizes was quite cut in that time so the JP may take the whooping 70% or such, because, how I was reading somewhere, players were supposed to like it or such .... Never have met anyone who liked it in the time, but the question is why is JP so low now, considering the ticket prices and % that it takes from the pool money?

3.5 million doesn't look like tripled, or even doubled 2 million.... Any ticket prices decreasing or is a higher the lower prizes % pool money recently?
