Yes, the weekly grand odds are better for top prize too - 1:201,000 - but it's only 77K. Not worth a $2 bet for me.

I'm going to start playing the WC again next week. The jackpot is getting close to 500K which is a life-changing amount for me.

I like the game because you get two plays for a dollar but because of that the payouts are really low on the lower prizes:

On Weekly Grand if you get 3 white balls, you get 25 bucks but it costs $2.00 a ticket.

Wild Card Odds

You buy these tickets 2 lines for one dollar. You can't buy a 50 cent ticket, so I assume the odds are calculated for 2 lines?

Every Wednesday and Saturday night we draw five numbers out of 33 and a Wild Card from a deck of 16 face cards using the Wild Card random number generator.

I tried to paste the odds chart here but it wouldn't show up correctly.
