It looks like a scratcher where you can win up to $1 million. Then there are second chance prizes and a chance to win the billion. Not sure how they do that whether there is a raffle for people who entered there second chance tickets or what. I suspect it is going to have to run for a longgggg time before they have the money for a billion buck prize.

Starting Monday, each $10 GOLDEN TICKET™ will offer players 20 chances to instantly win prizes ranging from $10 up to $1 million. Players also may enter codes from non-winning tickets for a chance to win one of 15 trips for two to Las Vegas and for the opportunity to play the BILLION DOLLAR CHALLENGE™ and a chance to win up to $1 billion.

The trip includes deluxe hotel accommodations for four days and three nights, round-trip airfare for two, ground transportation to and from the Las Vegas airport and hotel, and $1,000 spending money. To enter, players should visit MichiganLottery.com/GoldenTicket. Second chance drawings are scheduled to take place on: Aug.3, Aug. 31, Sept. 28, Oct. 26, and Nov. 30.

The actual lottery site just sez come back on July 3 for details.

So, lejardin, do you have a plan to get your PB tickets tomorrow after the budget is signed tonight

If WA state offered something like that I would not be playing. Not many new games come out of this place and $10 a ticket is pretty high for my blood.

Yes, I am playing the state lotto and PB if they get their S&*^ together. I only play the state lotto once it hits $5 or $6 million because the cash value is half and then subtract your taxes, ugh. Right now it is $9.4 million with a $4.7 million cash value not a whole lot of cash when you consider it is almost a $10 million jackpot.

When I went to the website to verify the jackpot, this is what the landing page said: WITHOUT A SIGNED BUDGET WE ARE IN SHUT DOWN MODE.

I cannot tell you how mad that makes me, I feel like writing Cantwell, Rogers, Murray and Inslee and tell them they are not doing their jobs and do not deserve their paychecks. Let them get po'd.

I've notices that TX has a lot of games to play which may be why their lottery does so well. Of course, having a large pop helps, too. CA state lotto stars at $7 mil and you're right. A lump sum minus taxes does not leave much. I have seen more than a few people win at $7 mil, though. How much is your state lotto? A dollar?

Anyway, I do believe the gov will be signing the budget tonight.

You are probably right in that Inslee will probably sign the budget, albeit 11:59 p.m. So why do this, get all the negative press, make people mad, it is all so unnecessary.

Yes, the good thing about the WA State lotto is you get two lines for $1. Buy one line for a buck and get a free line.

Lucky I live close to Idaho, I sometimes go and get advance tickets for Hot Lotto and Lucky4Life in the interim when the other games have been won and reset at lower jackpots. Plus I get cheaper gas lol.
