Where to view megaplier/power play for the next draw ?Reply
They draw megaplier/power play when the winning numbers are drawn, not a day before. The Power Play multiplier number is chosen at random just before the Powerball winning numbers are drawn. The Megaplier multiplier number is chosen at random by computerized drawing in Texas at around the same time the Mega Millions numbers are drawn in Georgia.

Powerball Powerplay 10XReply
The 10X multiplier is only in play when the advertised jackpot annuity is $150 million or less . There are a total of 43 Balls (when the 10X multiplier is available) but the majority of them are 2X. There are couple of 3X's, 4X's and 5X's and one 10X when the jackpot is 150 million or less. Right now, 10X is unavailable. Also the second place prize with The PowerPlay option is a set prize of two million, it makes no difference what the actual PowerPlay number is if you match the 5 white bal

No More Self Pick Play Slips AcceptedReply
Yes, lately since the jackpots are so high, it's quick picks only at the counter with the clerk. And, they have a stack already printed without the multiplier option. They grab a preprinted ticket from a stack next to the register, and give it to you after you pay. The tickets aren't even bring printed live.

Power Play for Palmetto Cash 5Reply
All non-jackpot prizes for the new Palmetto Cash 5 will be multiplied by x2, x3, x5 or x10. A random multiplier will print for each play on your ticket.

Powerball / Mega MillionsReply
MM had quite a lead over PB, so PB was playing catch up. I also think because of the 2M cap on PB Powerplay, most people would rather the MM multiplier which can pay up to 5M if the 5X is drawn.

The Megaplier multiplier number is chosen at random by computerized drawing in Texas at around the same time the Mega Millions numbers are drawn in Georgia. Megaplier was invented by the Texas Lottery as an add-on available only in that state, but was later available in all of the Mega Millions states except California starting in 2010. The Megaplier continues to be drawn in Texas. Got that from USAMega.

Wow, those are some pretty serious stakes. If I was in an office of let's say 10 people. We could each give $100 a month. That's $1,000 total. Then we would only play Megamillions because with the multiplier we could earn up to 5M on second tier prize. So two draws a week - 8 draws a month. $1,000 divided by $3 (cost of ticket with multiplier) we get 333.3 tickets a month. Divide the 333.3 with 8 draws, that gives us 41.6. So for each draw we could potentially buy

Powerball Powerplay 10XReply
Compared to Mega Millions, Powerball is stingy with the multiplier. If you want to maximize your lotto losses during your lifetime, then increase your ticket cost with the powerplay. Buying the same play for the same draw multiple times is an even better way to maximize your lotto losses.

Watch the PB drawing . And a MM drawing. The multiplier was drawn before drawing 5 + 1. Can't find if the megaplier is drawn at a different location but until I see something different, I'll believed RCB.

So for each draw we could potentially buy 41 tickets . . The MM odds of winning something are 1:24 and the two most likely prizes pay a max win of $20 are matching 1+1 and/or $10 matching 0+1. You'll probably need multiple wins or a $10 win with a 5 multiplier just to break even. The odds of matching 3+`1 are 1:14,547 to win $200 or possibly $1000, but you'll have to split that with nine other players. For the same $1000 you could get twice as many chances of winning the jackpot, but jac
