O.K. You thought that was nice, how about this.Whenever the jackpot hits $20 million annuity value, and theres no winner, the jackpot winfalls. The jackpot would be divided evenly among the 4 lower prize tiers. Regular Prize Avg. Winfall Prize Match 7 Jackpot N/A Match 6 $1,500 $156,827 Match 5 $50 $2,550 Match 4 $5 $115 Match 3 $1 $11 These would'nt come up very often, but to me, it can be just as exciting as a $300M jackpot. I mean, $11 being the lowest prize in a game with 1 in 10 overall odd... [ More ]

I agree with this payout, but it seems expensive for a $2 game JimmySand. Here's my suggestion:Pick 5 out of 25, plus a bonus ball out of remaining 20 to win a jackpot.Cost: 2 plays for a $1Payout [on average] 5+bonus: $200000 [minimum and grows with rollover]5: $25004+bonus: $3004: $303+bonus: $203: $52+bonus: $31+bonus: $2bonus only: $1

$2 for one ticket for low odds is too much JimmySand9. Let's try this plan:Pick 5 out of 49 and a Mega Number 1 out of 27. There is also a bonus WB for the remaining 44 numbers.Cost: 2 plays for a $1Here's the average payout:Match All 5 and Mega: Jackpot [minimum: $3 million]All 5: $20,0004 out of 5 plus bonus and Mega: $5,0004 out of 5 and Mega: $1,5004 out of 5 plus bonus: $2004 out of 5: $1003 out of 5 plus bonus and Mega: $1003 out of 5 and Mega: $503 out of 5 plus bonus: $203 out of 5: $102...

MA Megabucks Player Hater If you like paying double what others are willing to pay, here's a game for you.Pick 5 out of 25Cost : $2 Match 5 - $25,000 Match 4 - $50 Match 3 - $5 Match 2 - $2Overall odds : 1 in 3.9You need to have really low overall odds for a game this expensive.As for the original topic, people in Canada have no problem picking 7 numbers in their Lotto Super 7. And Super 7 in PA did pretty well, it only got axed because Keystone Jackpot would provide bigger jackpots... [ More ]

For just one line? That's just a little too much unless the game has ginormous lower-tier prizes. I only play Ca$h Winfall on a WinFall alert, as do a lot of others.

AFAIC the current gold standard is MA Ca$h WinFall, with its 60% return, and free play for 2/6 (1:6 overall odds).

I don't think people like picking seven numbers (except in keno). Maybe you should be thinking up $2 games instead of 2 plays/$1.
