$203,000,000 – Say No More!

Friday, October 28th, 2011

After nobody matched the midweek winning numbers in the US Powerball, the top prize once again climbs above the magic $200 million marker to lead the way in this weekend’s lottery league. But Powerball is not the only lottery rollover, tonight’s big US draw is the Mega Millions – up for grabs is a very handy $67 million. The last time the top Mega Millions prize was claimed was on September 30th when the $113 million jackpot was split 50 / 50 between a winner from California and one from North Carolina.

Mind you there’s a whole bunch of other US lotteries offering rich pickings in the next 40 hours or so, including the Florida Lotto $21 million, Indiana’s Hoosier Lotto $18.5 millions, California Super Lotto $15 million and many more – just check out the WinTrillions lotteries page on our web site.

But that’s not all, European lotteries are also stumping up some big money this weekend, so if you fancy your chances in Europe then look no further than Italy’s Super Enalotto, there’s just over 1 day to go and there’s $40 million in the pot, just ready for the taking.

Today’s other big European lottery is EuroMillions, to be drawn this evening; on offer is a mere $36.8 million, which might just see you through the week, providing you’re a bit careful with your spending!

You can play all these lotteries and many, many more from all around the world right here at WinTrillions, but if you want a crack at what’s on offer prize-wise today and tomorrow you’ll need to look a bit lively and buy your lottery tickets sooner rather than later and you’ll very definitely need a ticket otherwise you’ve got no chance at all.

Colorado & South Dakota New Mega Millions States

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Lottery proceeds benefit ecological interestsThis Sunday, Colorado will be adding Mega Millions to its roster of state and interstate lotteries. The well-known jackpot game will join Powerball as the other big payout game offered by the Colorado Lottery. The state lottery had been workign on adding Mega Millions since October. The new game will give Colorado residents and the many Wyoming citizens that travel to the state’s border stores a chance to score a big jackpot four nights a week (Mega Millions drawings are Tuesdays and Fridays, while Powerball draws are Wednesdays and Saturdays). According to Erika Gonzalez, spokeswoman for Colorado Lottery, Mega Millions should generate an estimated additional $27 million in the state. The proceeds will go to GoCo, the Great Outdoors Colorado, along with other state parks and the Conservation Trust Fund. Both Powerball and Mega Millions are now available in 39 states, as South Dakota was also recently added to the list of Mega Million playing states. Mega Millions starts with a jackpot of $12 million, with many other prizes ranging from 2$ to $250,000. Players pick 5 numbers from 1 to 56, and one Mega Ball number from 1 to 46. Matching all five numbers plus the Mega Ball means a jackpot win. Recently, players have been given the option to spend an extra dollar on each ticket for a “Megaplier” chance, which would multiply their non-jackpot prizes by up to four times. Mega Millions draws are Tuesdays and Fridays at 11 p.m. EST. The drawings will be aired on the Altitude network in Colorado.
