How to Play
Monthly Drawing is a unique opportunity for Michigan Lottery players. To begin, players will purchase a ticket and look for symbols that match.
If three symbols are paired together to form a cluster, you will win a prize. Forming more clusters could potentially lead to the grand prize of $100,000.
If you reveal three or more star symbols, you will work your way up to the instant prize meter. Filling up this meter will unlock a guaranteed prize when you reveal three bonus symbols.
For the second chance jackpot, every 50 cents that is wagered will count as one entry for this drawing. Part of every wager, in general, will help fund this growing jackpot, which could potentially grow to a high amount.
After the entry period is over for that month, one person will be drawn to win the second chance jackpot.
The jackpot begins at $5,000 but can increase exponentially as more people play.
Odds, Price, and Prizes
The overall odds of winning a single prize for Monthly Jackpot is one in 4.28. These are appealing odds, but you could look to slightly increase your chances.
If you decide to purchase another ticket, you could potentially increase your chances. In addition, every 50 cents wagered will count as an entry into the second drawing.
Keep in mind that the ticket costs vary and will depend on how much you are wanting to wager. Make sure you have set up a budget before trying this method.
The odds range from one in 11.83 all the way to one in 2,00,000. As for the second place drawing odds, these will vary based on how many people have played and how many entries they earned.
