Comments:
Not a change in 22 years for 4+0, 3+1 and 3+0 lower tier payouts in Powerball.

Yet, the odds have and not in your favor.

At least Mega Millions made some changes.
That Ol' Hank Williams Jr. classic...

There's a tier in my beer
Cause I'm cryin' over here
Jackpots are on my losing mind
In these last nine years
I have spent my money here
Jackpots are on my losing mind


Oh, and price of playing doubled.

Divide the prize by the price and you can see your playing power by winnings per dollar.
Multiplier you say.

Well, you'd be dividin' by three, instead of two.

Which would make multiplying playing powers, 2/3, 1, 1 1/3, and 1 2/3 as multipliers.
Powerball x10 you say, well, it's only been drawn twice since it's been implemented way back in 2015.

It would make the multiplying playing power only 3 1/3.

Based on the current draws, the draw lottery odds is 1 in 170.5

it's theoretical lottery odds is 1 in 43.

Hmm, seems the x10 is coming up short.

Have a nice play.
Some of the prizes in your Mega Millions table are wrong for 56/46 and 75/15.

Is there a website that shows how much money each state has sent out for jackpots to other states?

I know since the MM change in 2013 Michigan has exported a lot of money and likewise with the PowerBall since 2015 and to round out the trifecta Michigan has never had a top prize winner in the lucky for life. The MSL has been exporting all of the Michigan players prize money since 2015.

If Michigan pulled out of the Multi States and kept that money in state then the MSL could make the Michigan Lottery Great Again!

Whats wrong with a few $30 Million to $60 Million prizes per year versus 4 to 5 years of no top prizes at all?

Other losing lotteries need to do the same.
Which ones?
56/46 - 2,3,7,10,150,150, 10K, 250K (megaplier fixed at 1 million)
75/15 - 1,2,5,5,50,500,5K.

I hit 3+1 on the 56/46 more than once...since then diddly
56/46 - 2,3,7,10,150,150, 10K, 250K (megaplier fixed at 1 million)
75/15 - 1,2,5,5,50,500,5K.

I hit 3+1 on the 56/46 more than once...since then diddly
56/46 - 2,3,7,10,150,150, 10K, 250K (megaplier fixed at 1 million)
75/15 - 1,2,5,5,50,500,5K.

I hit 3+1 on the 56/46 more than once...since then diddly
Don't know how that happened.....only hit "Post Comment" once
