Michigan IIRC spent over $1 million to launch Change Play . Looks like they'll be writing it off.

I've checked both wheels using my Ohio649P and other 649 files and it appears that the $83 wheel cover only 90% of the numbers while $163 wheel cover all the numbers so far. In some cases as many as 5 or more combinations of threes were covered in one drawing. With the last payouts for a match 3 and a match 4 being so high in WINFALL, I'm sure there will be some Michigan betters willing to take a chance that those payouts will be high one more time. Good luck to them. I will only play the Oh... [ More ]

I checked the Michigan website and the guaranteed payout for a match 3 in WINFALL is $5. Ohio use to have a payout of $3 for match 3, but got rid of it when they went to a 6/49 format. At the time, they claimed players didn't collect such small winnings, but I think the changed was made to make more profit. Recently the game was changed and now a match 3 earns a free QP with the annunity option, so it will be interesting to see if any more changes are maded. I'm sure the thinking is bigger j...

I'm checking that wheel to see if it is correct. I have two 6/49 wheels with all 49 numbers with a guarantee of a match 3. The one is 163 combinations and the other is 83 combinations. I copied them off the internet, maybe lotto-logix, but I can't find their source. If the smaller one is correct and the payout is still $70 for a match 3, a drive up to Michigan this weekend could pay for itself. I copied those wheels sometime back with no plans to ever use them because I could never imagine... [ More ]

No. There are several games where first prize is added to second prize if no winner, but not to all lower tiers.

55% is correct. So is the fact that Michigan Millions is funding the first few WINFALLs.

WINFALL sounds like a good game to play at the start, but the level of payouts will not remain that high after the game has had several drawings because there are 6/49 wheels which includes all 49 numbers with a guarantee of a match 3 with 83 combinations. With a payout of $70 for match 3, there would be too many people willing to gamble $13 in hope of getting a match 4 for $1,319 or at least more than one match 3. I understand that the high payouts are due to the jackpot money rolled over fro... [ More ]

Bradly,I agree. This game is definitely awesome. Michigan is definitely one of the best lottery states in the country. I wish I lived closer.Do you know how Michigan splits up the dollar that you spend? Does 50% go to the prize fund
