Okay check this out! I buy these scratch off lottery tickets and it's called the "Price is Right" this is a game show in the U.S. Anyway you can mail in the losing tickets for a 2nd chance and for the next 6 months they will draw 1 ticket to go to Vegas for a chance to win up to 1 million dollars playing "Price is Right" games. I was sitting here at home playing poker and the Hoosier Lottery calls and I'm the first winner out of 6 total that will get to fly out to Vegas for 4 days and 3 nights all paid, $1000.00 cash and get to go to the "Price is Right" game theathre to play 6 games with opportunities to win $10,000.00 dolars up to 1 million dollars.
This is carzy! II mean 1 of 6 people and there are actually millions of entrants that send the losing tickets in. Yee Haa! I guess the minimum amount I will win is $10,000.00 according to the literature

very nice, start swotting up on those PIR games mohave, give yourself the best opportunity to win BIG, something like that could be life changing. when you do play the games most of all try to keep a calm head, you're a poker player you should be good at that, and stay focused. So basically you got a nice holiday, $1000 guaranteed and the chance of a life changing moment, well done mate, and i wish you the best of luck with that

Okay called the lottery office and need to show them the ticket by next Friday. There are actually 5 more drawings over the next 5 months. I was the first to hit from the very first drawing so I guess we don't even fly to Vegas until next May or June. I will definitely have the detailed info by the end of next week. Still an unbelieveable thing to happen for me. I never really won anything big and to know it's from the lottery and not one of these free trips to get you to spend your own money, but actually the chance to win more money. You can bet if I hit anything real big I'll donate to a Mobster poker game or games to allow some of you to win some cash. You can count on it!
Are you actually going to be on the televised Price is Right show or is this a lottery spin off. I remember that show from back in the day..it was very popular....and don't forget to get your pet spade or neutered....lol. Wish you are the best.

Im so happy! Good thing happend to good man! Great news man! Is that some TV show? Will we be able to watch via internet sometimes? Anyway, dont forget to crush those poker tables while you are in city of poker Enjoy man, and go for big! Think like real poker player
On a cautionary note though, just make sure you're not being scammed... If for any reason, it turns out, you need to spend money, to be eligible for the big prize, be very wary.
Let us know how it turns out. I wish you the best of luck (it seems like you've already got that covered though )

hey, I don't usually write comments like this but I read all that you wrote and it's really awesome what's happening to you! you're at the start of a dream that very few will have the chance to live..
Best of luck man, i'm really happy for you, now go win some green
I advise you not to play poker in vegas or if you run very lucky with the price is right, not to spend more then 10% of your price is right winnings...
maybe after this trip you can make a step up in your online pokercarreer,, if you do well you can always go to vegas next year..and hit the tables there..
we keep our fingers crossed ,,hope you hit the jackpot.
the price is right: also on dutch television ,i hardly ever watch it,but over here you can't win millions highest you can win is a brand new car..which is nice too.

Thanks jovica and everyone for the kind words. I do know that it is not a scam, but I don't know if I'll win big. The one thing all you Mobsters can count on is, if I do win big I'm going to sponser some nice freerolls for only you Mobsters to play and it won't be for a cheesy prize. If I win some rediculous amount of money I promise that it will be good game with pay out up to 10 places. I just hope I do win big enough to share a fair amount of money with some of you.
Rememeber it's not until May of 2013 when I go to this. And it is weird because it's called "Price is Right", but it states I go to some theatre to play 6 famous TV game shows as follows; Card Sharks, Family Feud, Jokers Wild, Let's Make a Deal, Match Game and Price is Right with a chance to win a million dollars. So I'm wondering myself what this is all about. Very excited! Againn Thanks and Hope I win enough to share some thousands.
