MM $5, PB $2, Powerplay $1IReply
You are missing the point as to why a lot of players resent the $5 ticket price. The whole point of Mega Millions is the big jackpot and maybe the hope of second prize. It's really stupid to increase the ticket price so the lower prizes can be increased. Third prize is 10k and multiplied up to 100k The odds of getting anything above 30 k are really ridiculous. If I want to go for 100k I don't need Mega Millions to do that! I could buy a Fantasy 5 ticket for 1$ and get mu

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
The Mega Millions jackpot increased by $17 million to $195 million after 13 rolls. There is an estimated 1.7% chance the Mega Millions jackpot will be won in the next draw. Since the Powerball jackpot was just won, it is highly unlikely it will catch up to the Mega Millions jackpot.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
The Mega Millions jackpot increased by the minimum $10 million to $120 million after 7 rolls. There is an estimated 1.5% chance the Mega Millions jackpot will be won in the next draw. The jackpot is underfunded from sales by about $17 million. Even though the Powerball jackpot was recently won and started at the $20 million amount, it is slowly starting to catch up to the Mega Millions jackpot.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
The Mega Millions jackpot increased by the minimum $10 million to $110 million after 6 rolls. There is an estimated 1.4% chance the Mega Millions jackpot will be won in the next draw. The jackpot is underfunded from sales by about $22.5 million. In the previous Mega Millions run, the jackpot went from $100 million to $125 million and set a new roll record. New roll records were then set for the next several draws. As pointed out by KY Floyd, sales are lower for this run then the previous tw

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
The Powerball jackpot was won in the April 6 draw and is now at the starting value of $20 million. This will give Mega Millions a chance to catch up in the race. But the Mega Millions game is still well behind and it will take a massive jackpot run to begin to catch up. It will be interesting to see if the Powerball jackpot catches up to the Mega Millions jackpot before either jackpot is won.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
The Mega Millions jackpot was won and is at its starting point of $50 million. A new race has began but there is no question Powerball is clearly ahead. It will take a significant run up of the Mega Millions jackpot for the game to even begin to challenge Powerball. The Mega Millions game is falling behind not by design but simply bad luck. In the March 10 draw, there was only about a 2.8% chance the jackpot would be won and it was.

The Mega Millions jackpot increased by $37 million to $533 million after 27 rolls. This sets a new 27 roll record for the current format of the game; an increase of $13 million over the previous record. There is an estimated 2.6% chance the Mega Millions jackpot will be won in the next draw. The larger than normal boost in the Mega Millions jackpot was due to an increase in interest rates. Sales are not projected to increase for the upcoming draw despite the much smaller Powerball jackpot at
