The Powerball CT game is one of the two multi-state lottery games in which Connecticut participates. With the guaranteed forty million dollars jackpot for those that pick the winning numbers, it has become one of the most popular lottery games in the state. With an increase of at least ten million dollars between every game that doesn't have a winner, it's easy to see why people love to play. Even with the two- dollar wager for each game, the Powerball CT game is able to hold onto its followers.

To participate in the twice-weekly drawings is simple. Any retailer of the popular game can sell tickets to residents wishing to participate. The participants are required to select five numbers between 1 and 59, as well as one red number between 1 and 35. With some luck the night of the drawing will render the same numbers drawn that appear on a ticket. In order to increase the odds of winning more than one million dollars, the Power Play feature of the game can be added on to the ticket for an extra dollar. If the Power Play that you chose is activated, you will be the winner of a guaranteed two million dollars. Once the numbers are picked, the only thing to do is to watch as the numbers are being drawn and hope that your luck has changed.

Whether you come out the winner of the Powerball jackpot or win a smaller prize, the excitement that comes with being a winner can be well worth the money spent on a Powerball ticket. For many, while the thought of winning the jackpot is forever on their minds, like the rest of the participants they are happy to win anything at all.

Who doesn't dream of becoming rich beyond their wildest dreams? With the help of the Powerball CT, more people have realized their dreams of becoming millionaires overnight. For the 44 states, along with the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the twice-weekly drawing has turned into a ritual for many of their residents. If you feel like testing your luck, be sure to pick up a Powerball ticket because you can't win if you don't play.
