      <description><![CDATA[I am not in a Powerball state, so I am unfamilar with the nuances of Powerball, especially Powerplay.  The question I have is about the current 10X multiplier promotion.  For each multiplier there are 4 different chances for each number from 2 through 5, a total of 16 slots for the ball to drop in.  If I understand correctly, for this 10X promotion they took one of the 5x numbers and made it a 10X.  To make it more interesting they should have swapped out a 2X instead of a 5X, granted this could... [&nbsp;<a href="http://www.lotterypost.com/thread/153900/806842">More</a>&nbsp;]]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[For the usual powerplay structure the expected payout is 3.5 times the base prize. By swapping a 5x for a 10X the expected payout goes up to 4.125 times the base prize. That means they can expect to  pay out an extra 17.8% in prize money, and if it doesn't increase sales of powerplay enough they'll be losing money compared to the usual powerplay. If the previous try had increased sales by almost enough, I expect they would have tried again much sooner. I'd guess that they're simply hoping that]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Maybe this is the month to step up our play a bit.  You think they'd make the 10X permanent if it resulted in increased sales this month?  I just won $100 in a sweeps, maybe I'll use that to buy PB's with the PP this month.]]></description>
