Playing the Colorado Powerball Lottery

Connecticut Powerball and Classic Lotto Games

The two biggest drawing games available from the Connecticut lotto are the Powerball Lotto and the state lottery.

Playing the Colorado Powerball game can be a great way to let off steam and to let your imagination run wild. There are a variety of lottery games available in Colorado, but Colorado Powerball is probably the most popular one of all. This is because the game offers that possibility of extra large payouts, yet it still only costs a dollar to play. Rather than spending several dollars on a scratch-off card that might offer a few thousand dollars, you can spend less money but get the chance to win much, much more.

To play the Colorado lottery Powerball game, you simply must choose six numbers. The first five numbers must fall between one and fifty-five, so you can pick your birthday, your mom's birthday, your favorite lucky number or anything you like. The sixth number is known as the Powerball number, and this can be anywhere from one to forty-two. You can choose all of the numbers yourself, or you can let the computer pick them for you by purchasing a Colorado lottery Powerball Quick Pick. This is quicker and easier than choosing your own Powerball lottery numbers, but it might not be as fun if you enjoy the thrill of picking them by yourself.

No matter how you pick your Powerball lottery numbers, if you match all six you win the jackpot, which means you are set for life. However, if your Powerball ticket has five matching numbers, you will still win quite a bit of cash. The payout for matching all five Powerball numbers without the Powerball is a whopping two hundred thousand dollars. That is enough to make anyone happy with getting second prize.
