All the info can be seen at the Michigan’s website at www.michigan.gov/lottery but if you by some chance came by through a search engine and didn’t go to the main site then I’m not going to do the jackass internet forum thing by linking you to stuff you want. Who the hell wants to keep clicking links? But to hell with everybody that’s ever done that on a forum board to someone who just wants a question answered and gets an ass that says “I know it, but go here cause I’m a lazy fuck that would rather raise my post count” OK, enough with that mess, here are the odds of winning anything in the Michigan Mega Millions Jackpot!
Prize: $Millions 5 White Balls + 1 Mega Ball — Odds: 1 in 175,711,53
Prize: $250,000 5 White Balls — Odds: 1 in 3,904,701
Prize: $10,000 4 White Balls + 1 Mega Ball — Odds: 1 in 689,065
Prize: $150 4 White Balls — Odds: 1 in 15,313
Prize: $150 3 White Balls + 1 Mega Ball — Odds: 1 in 13, 781
Prize: $10 2 White Balls + 1 Mega Ball — Odds: 1 in 844
Prize: $7 3 White Balls — Odds: 1 in 306
Prize: $3 1 White Ball + 1 Mega Ball — Odds: 1 in 141
Prize: $2 1 Mega Ball — Odds: 1 in 75
So there you have it. The odds to win in the Mega Millions. Are they all correct? According to michigan.gov it sure is! I do question the mega ball odds since they are 46 to choose from, yet 1 in 75? Hmmm. Makes me wonder but I guess if they say its 1 in 75 then it’s 1 in 75. And to be a nice guy, I’ll also link you to the main website.

You seem smart at math…do a reverse calculation on the odds of the mega ball number being the same 3 times in a row…
its so astronomically impossible, that if we lived in a truly democratic society, someone would go to jail over this

The odds are calculated based on the entire wager a player makes, and a wager is made on two pools of numbers.
The 1 in 75 calculation includes the odds of matching zero numbers in the white ball pool (1 out of 56) and correctly matching the Mega Ball number in the second pool (1 out of 46). A player cannot make a wager on the Mega Ball number only.

It seems that someone forgot to remove the drop of water from the #26 gold ball the last three weeks. Remember when the same exact set of numbers won two drawings in a row? What is going on here? Is it rigged or what? Hello.
