Powerball and Mega Millions expand

Lottery DrawsWe are to see both the Powerball and Mega Millions expand this month as both lotteries add extra states in which they are played. From Jan 31st the Mega Millions Lottery will be offered to Missouri lottery players and now we hear that Ohio is also joining the Powerball Lottery giving lottery players in both of these states double the big jackpots to win.

Missouri lottery players already have the Powerball Lottery to play and now from the end of this month players in the state will also be able to play for Mega Millions Lottery jackpots. It’s another string in their bow and players in the state are looking forward to being able to play for yet another big US jackpot.

Then it’s the turn of Ohio to join the Powerball Lottery, this new addition we don’t have a date for yet but again lottery players from the state will no doubt be keen to try out for some of the massive jackpots on offer for Powerball Lottery players. 

The Mega Millions Lottery is drawn on Tuesdays and Friday evenings and right now is up to $121 million after several rollovers, the next draw is at 10pm tonight and you can buy tickets online through our World Lottery pages.

The Powerball Lottery is held on Wednesdays and Saturday evenings and that one is also on a rollover and up to $76 million for tomorrow night’s draw.

That gives players in states where both lotteries are played almost $200 million to play for right now making it easy to see why players are so excited to live in states that offer both.
