  The jackpot for the Canadian Lotto 649 lottery is at $22 million. This is only the second time this year the jackpot has been over $20 million. As a fan of lottery groups, the CDN 649 rolls have been very disappointing. Hoping to make up ground this weekend. My group has over $500 worth of tickets for the Saturday draw. Hope we win and show that lottery groups are the best way to win. And if we do not win, then oh well, it is still fun trying.

  Have you read  https://www.lotterypost.com/thread/130616  you and Amazing Grace are trying to prove the same thing.  My observations of lotteries in the USA are that most big jackpots are won by a single person or shared by a couple and where pools are involved, 20% of the time there is a depute because someone is trying to get over as the expense of others in the pool.  I don't play in a pool but if I did it would only be with people I personally saw and trusted every day like family and co-workers.

  You can't have a bigger pool than a whole town and whole towns have never had a jackpot winner even though many of their citizens have played lotteries for years.  That alone convinces me that there no advantage to being a big group.  You need a strategy and some luck no matter whether  you're alone or playing with a group.

  Good luck to you both.

  Stats say that 40% of the winners come from Lottery Groups.
