I need help calculating my oddsReply
Sometimes what seems obvious isn't correct, for example MegaMillions has 15 megaballs so you would think your odds of matching 0+1 would be 1:15 but it's 1:21 when it's calculated.

I need help calculating my oddsReply
Are you saying that my combined overall odds are 1 in 11,000 or would it mean 2 in 11,000 since I have a total of two tickets?

Powerball Matrix Change - April 15, 2015Reply
Basically this will push out much of the regular and semi-regular players with even lower odds. What this WILL do is make insanely huge jackpots when they do come around. The record of 650mil hasn't been broken so looks like this may happen when the new odds take effect.

Wisconsin man repeats same feat of winning multiple lottery jackpotsReply
He already won in the past, just like hundreds or thousands of other players in the almost 24 year history of the game. His odds of winning again are 1 in 1.63 million, just like it is for the hundreds or thousands of other players who won in the past, every time he buys a ticket. Since it's a daily game there's a very good chance he's played it almost every one of the 2340 or so days since his first win.

apparently you people still don't get it. 1in ##### is an ODDS CHART! not true numbers. i can prove it you another way. look at the bottom prize hitting only the power ball. The chart says the odds are 1in55 ok then why is that since there are only 35 power balls. its because you could JUST MAYBE win a higher prize by getting one or more white balls with that power ball. ENOUGH SAID!
