13,983,816 to 1. In other words, forgeddaboudit.

Unless the prize is more than 13,983,816 dollars and you were able to buy every possible combination of numbers. Of course, it is physically impossible to buy 14 million lottery tickets and no one has ever been able to "beat" the game this way.

The only problem with doing that is what if someone else wins too - you have to split the jackpot and you're screwed.
