Awful changes effective 10/28/17
for
Mega Millions...
Price increased to $2 per ticket & odds increased
from
258,890,000 million-to-one to 302,575,350 million to one.
Jackpot winners won't receive all that is in the jackpot prize
pool
and they still offer a break-even prize. New game added
to Mega Millions called "Just the Jackpot." For $3 you will
receive 2 chances to win the jackpot ONLY. A horrible
wager for any player. Complete

Read all the fine details of the rule change plus

don't
want you to
