[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3891787, member: 8862"] I think it goes like this: Basic ticket is $2. For an extra $1, you get the "multiplier" or "power play" or something like that. If you match all the numbers, the grand prize (of $1.6 billion in this case) does NOT increase; you'd only get the $1.6 billion). However, with the extra $1 you spent, all the lower prizes you can win (by matching only some of the numbers) are doubled. Example: Instead of winning $1 million for matching all the numbers but one, you would get $2 million for spending that extra buck on the ticket. BTW, according to the OK Lottery the odds of winning the grand prize in Powerball are 1 in 292,201,338.
