Lol how many tickets did you end up buying? And how much did the Kelly Criterion suggest you needed to have for that to be an optimal bet?

Lotto has a $150NZ max spend on the website. Buying on the website is much better because it autochecks your ticket. So I spent the max on my account and my wife's. $300 total.

I asked Claude 3.5 Sonnet to modify the code to tell me the bankroll to justify $300 worth of tickets: $14,388,183,587.61
