Ways to stay anonymous:

1. Don't cash the ticket.  Instead, frame it with one of the numbers obscured, and hang it in your office. 
2. Give it to someone you can trust, like me to cash in.

henche will just bill it back to his clients obviously
But rechnitz is henches client, so in essence rechnitz is still paying.
I'm not who you think I am.

They claimed they won the $1.5B, but then it turned out one of the poolmates worked for Rechnitz, news picked it up, but it turned out it was all a Henche prank, but Rechnitz is now flying all of the poolmates in EY F to MLE where they'll be renting out the entire W because he felt bad for them.
Oh shoot i knew I should have joined the pool when I could  :'(

People find playing the lottery as a group more enjoyable and that it builds camaraderie. Hope is more tangible as a group exercise. It also technically increases multiples your chances of winning. (I'd venture to say that you're better off winning $10M than $200M anyways, although that is decidedly not the reason behind office pools.) Hey, you never know!
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.
