Both the Lotto Max and Lotto 649 jackpots are relatively small. No new groups will probably launch this month.
The only opportunity for new players is Mega Millions. Group U25 will continue to buy tickets for Mega Millions until the jackpot is won. Then the group may switch to Powerball. The Powerball jackpot is slowing growing and is currently U$82 million.
Cost to join Group U25 is $20. There is no limit on the number of shares in the group.
Existing players will continue to play UK Lotto.

The $60 million Lotto Max jackpot for the December 27 draw was not won and is capped at $65 million plus a minimum of 8 Maxmillions for the next draw. None of the 6 Maxmillions were won. Weekly sales of $70.2 million were 75% higher than average and 29% higher than the previous week. Based on draw sales of $33.3 million, there was a 82% chance the jackpot would not be won, a 16% chance of 1 winning ticket and a 2% chance of 2 or more winners. The expected value was just above average at 55%. The jackpot was under funded from sales by $1.2 million.
Group M13 will launch if the next jackpot rolls.
