Powerball question: Did I win anything?

Ok, yes, I play Powerball. I see nothing wrong with playing a game that has ridiculously low odds of winning. Imagine the payout if you do win though? :slight_smile: :rolleyes:

However, I was wondering, if you have one number in your set, and the powerball number, do you win anything? I thought you did, but I am not certain. 2 bucks maybe? Another ticket perhaps? Does anyone know?

I think you’ve won 4 bucks.

Hey great! Thanks! I knew a fellow Connecticut-ite would come through for me. Thanks TMINC I appreciate it!

No prob :slight_smile: I guess I’ll forego the $3.99 GQ-fee I was gonna levee :wink:

Congrats on your win, by the way! (Hey, a 400% return really can’t be beat!)

New York is hooked into Mega Millions…8 or 10 states involved. I guess it’s the same as Powerball. Anyway, any outlet that sells the tickets should have a pamphlet with the odds and payouts. Ask for one where you play.

If you get the powerball number, Here in Louisiana you win $4

Well let’s all be thankful that hasn’t changed since 2004. Thanks for the update, Armstrong49!

Can I borrow 50 cents?

They say your odds of winning go up tremendously when you buy that first ticket.
I think of lotteries as a stupidity tax. the dumber you are, the more you pay. I only pay $2 a week. :smiley:
