OVERBORED

No winners for Powerball.
How is that even possible, how many combinations of numbers were not played?

It's at that point where anyone with a few million dollars can play every combination of numbers. Just have to hope the pot isn't split!

Not exactly, there are 292 million combinations. At $2 a pop - you'd have to lay out almost $600 million and hope you don't split it with someone. Plus Powerball doesn't give you a lot of time between drawings to print all those tickets.

It can be done with lotteries with lower odds though.
