Group 917
Started September 13, 2009, ended December 6, 2009

Group 917 was started by transferring partial payments of shares from the 7 regular groups. The share limit is 588 such that $28 wins a $1 million share of the jackpot. Group was created to allow members to transfer their shares from groups that are over their share limits to this group in order maintain the target of $1 million share of the jackpot. There are 588 shares in the group ($588).

September 18, 2009 - $21 Million Super 7 Jackpot - Last draw
Bought 325 Super 7 tickets ($650) for the September 18 draw.
Won $208 (44 x $2 + 12 x $10) - 32%. Balance: $146

Group will hold the balance until the Lotto 649 jackpot is at least $25 million or the Lotto Max jackpot reaches $50 million. Since the minimum jackpot of $25 million is higher than the jackpot this group was originally targeting, the share limit has been raised to 700. Shares are available at a cost of 2 shares for $1.
