I have a feeling they could be having better odds as well If there's no tax on winnings then the effective odds are almost certainly better. Without the federal income tax or 37% on a big win the same game odds would make a foreign jackpot of $100 million comparable to a US jackpot of (about) $150 million. Similarly, a foreign jackpot with odds less than 50% worse is effectively better than a US jackpot with the same (pre-tax) jackpot.

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
I can spend more, but Im now 72. A 2 Step win would be plenty for my remaining years. I do play TX Lotto, still only a buck for ticket. But the odds on that game is pretty bad. Not MM or PB bad, but.... 2 Step would take care of me for the rest of my life along with a couple IRA's I have. I used to spend 2k a year or more. Yeah, I won more, but nothing really noteworthy. One game I played a lot back then was All or Nothing. $2 a ticket. I would play 5 tickets of the same numbers,

Just look at the odds of any jackpot game is honestly the cleanest filter there is. Everything else is noise on top of a number that basically doesn't move. And your point about Tx2Step is the one people miss: the smaller state games have dramatically better odds for prizes that would still genuinely change a regular person's month. A few hundred thousand at 1 in 1.8M beats a fantasy at 1 in 290M, especially on a fixed budget. Sounds like you already ran that math a long time ago. Do you find th

Colorado Lottery celebrates state's big 150th birthday with new gamesReply
They have plenty of other $5 games with huge top prizes and long odds. Average payout is the same and odds to win anything are the same, so it's not bad , just a much lower variance than the others.
