How to Play Triple Million
Triple Million is an in-store-only lottery game, so you would need to purchase your tickets at your favorite lottery retailer. If you have trouble finding one or need another to go to, check out the Michigan Lottery website for more information on retailers.
Once you have purchased your ticket, simply scratch to reveal sections to see your numbers. If you happen to match any of your numbers with any of the winning numbers, then the prize will show below those matches.
If you reveal a stack of cash, you win that prize amount automatically. For a money bag, you will win triple that prize amount. With a vault symbol, you will win all 20 prizes shown.
There is also a Fast section, which means if you reveal a prize there, then you win instantly. The Fast prizes, if revealed, will award you either $100, $200, or $500.
Odds, Price, and Prizes for Triple Million
The overall odds of winning a single prize in Triple Million is one in 3.93. To slightly increase these odds in your favor, purchasing an additional ticket can help.
By doing this, you are slightly bringing down the total amount of tickets remaining. However, each ticket costs $10, so make sure you have a budget in place before buying too many.
The recent jackpot winner found the second million dollar prize ticket, which means there is only one remaining in circulation. By purchasing another ticket, it could prove to be worth the extra investment. Below you can see what is remaining.
