AP:At least with PB you choose after you win (which you won't).

I chose Powerball. It's in my state. I have to drive like 35 miles to play mega millions in TX.

I think Powerball is better. Not just because the odds are better but also because they offer the Power Play option. I hope Mega Millions' current jackpot of $112 million vice Powerball's $10 million isn't influencing people's voting

I have been told that the odds are better for Powerball but seeing the bigger 2nd place prize of $175,000 with Mega compared to the $100,000 2nd place prize of PB, I would prefer Mega..It seems also that there are always 5 or 6 2nd place winners with Mega and few with PB. I know it's due to more players but it still makes it more attractive.
