Michigan Lottery players have already experienced the new raffle last month, the 100K Raffle. Now there is another raffle added to the list, Full of 50’s, with a top prize of $5,000.
How to Play and Game Details
Tickets for the raffle will cost you $10 each, and they can be purchased at any time seven days a week at the Michigan Lottery website. The order of which the tickets will be issued will be in numerical order.
Players do not need to pick any specific numbers or follow special instructions. The tickets will all be Easy Picks, which means players will not be able to select their own numbers.
Keep in mind also that these tickets cannot be canceled once they are issued, and there are not any multi-draw wagers. This is another positive about raffles, in that they take little effort on the players’ part to win prizes.
Once all 10,000 tickets have been sold, the drawing will start on its own at that moment. In the event that not all of the 10,000 tickets have not sold, there is an automatic drawing date that happens one year after the specific date and time in which those tickets first become available for purchase.
Odds and Prizes
Players will have to match their exact numbers from their raffles to those that have been drawn by the Lottery in order to win. Prizes include $50, $250, and $5,000.
The smaller prizes will automatically be funded into your Michigan Lottery account. As for the $5,000 prize, lottery players will have to submit a claim found online in order to process the winnings.
The winning raffle numbers can be found online at the Michigan Lottery website, usually within 24 hours after the drawing has taken place. In addition, the Michigan Lottery app will provide this information too.
The overall odds of winning a single prize is currently at 1 in 7.69. To increase your odds of winning one of those prizes mentioned above, you can purchase another raffle ticket.
Keep in mind that each ticket does cost you $10 per play. This could rack up quickly for some, so adjust your budget accordingly.
Below are the odds and prize amounts:
1 grand prize of $5,000 – 1: 10,000
50 prizes of $250 – 1: 200
1,250 prizes of $50 – 1: 8
