  When I first heard about the new matrix change for PB I wasn't sure I wanted to play anymore but after seeing what you can win for the lower prizes if you play with the Powerplay option for the extra dollar (I am still playing every now and then but just buying one ticket per play), I think the prize for getting 4 numbers plus the PB ball is good. If you hit a 10x you could win 500,000, even just getting a 2x would get you 100k. They should have upped the second place prize like they did with MM when the matrix changed on that game. Truth is by adding all these extra numbers on both PB and MM it just makes it more impossible to win but there are people who might actually get 4 numbers plus the PB number and win a decent prize. Have you guys stopped playing when the matrix changed or still playing and do you think the lower prizes are worth it if you spend the extra dollar for the Powerplay?

  I don't blame you for quitting after the last matrix change.
