Michigan Lottery Games

Founded in November 1972, the first Michigan Lottery draw took place in February the following year. The Michigan Lottery offers a wide range of multi-jurisdictional and locally run games, including opportunities to win significant sums of money every day.

Proceeds from the Michigan Lottery go towards funding K-12 education across the state, with approximately 28% of total revenue being distributed in this manner.

Powerball

Powerball tickets cost $2.00, with players choosing five numbers between 1 and 69 plus a Powerball number between 1 and 26. Players can choose their numbers manually or go for a Quick Pick. A Power Play option is also available, costing $1.00 for the chance to multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times.

Mega Millions

Players must choose five numbers between 1 and 70 and a Mega Ball number between 1 and 25, with Quick Pick also being available for random selections. Mega Millions has an additional Megaplier option for $1.00 for the chance to multiply non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times.

Lucky for Life

Lucky for Life is a popular lottery game played across 23 states and the District of Columbia, giving players the chance to win $1,000 a day (paid out as $365,000 annually) for the rest of their lives, or the option to take home a lump sum of $5.75 million.

Tickets cost $2.00, with players choosing five main numbers from 1 to 48 and a Lucky Ball number between 1 and 18. Quick Pick is also available for random selections.

Lotto 47

Lotto 47 is a straightforward lottery that costs just $1.00 to enter.

Players must choose six numbers from 1 to 47 or can go for a Quick Pick to enter with randomly chosen numbers. Combo tickets are also available, for up to 10 numbers that are entered into Lotto 47 in every possible combination.

Lotto 47 has a Double Play option costing $1.00, to enter numbers into a second draw to win up to $1.5 million. Due to the format of Lotto 47, the Double Play jackpot is sometimes larger than the main game’s top prize!

Players can also add EZmatch to their ticket for a further $1.00 for the chance to win up to $500 on the spot.

Club Keno

Club Keno has multiple entry and stake-based options, as well as the opportunity to enhance the base prize by adding a prize multiplier.

Players must decide on how many numbers to match from 1 to 10, before choosing the relevant number of selections between 1 and 80. Quick Picks are available for random selections.

Participants must choose a stake of $1.00, $2.00, $3.00, $4.00, $5.00, $10 or $20, including the possibility of adding Extra to double the stake and win up to $500,000.

Another entry option is the Kicker prize multiplier, to increase Club Keno prizes by up to 10 times. Kicker also doubles player stakes, but works independently to other add-ons.

Players can also play The Jack for $1.00 per draw. This is a secondary draw with eight randomly chosen numbers, for the chance to win a variety of prizes.

The maximum jackpot payout from Club Keno is $2 million, irrespective of add-ons and prize multipliers.

Poker Lotto

Poker Lotto is a two-part draw game. Entry costs $2.00 and is available via Quick Pick only.

The first part of the World Poker Tour is an instant-win game and, if the ticket has a winning poker hand, up to $5,000 can be won on the spot!

This ticket remains valid for the draw game, for a chance to win the jackpot by matching all five cards drawn.

Keno

Keno, also known as Daily Keno, is a simpler version of the Club Keno game, with a fixed entry cost of $1.00.

Participants must choose 10 numbers from 1 to 80 or can go for a Quick Pick to enter with random selections. Unlike traditional Keno games, 22 rather than 20 numbers are drawn, which dramatically improves the odds of winning the jackpot.

Players will get a refund by matching no numbers at all, but unfortunately, there are no secondary games available.

Fantasy 5

Fantasy 5 is a straightforward lottery game that costs just $1.00 to enter.

Players must choose five numbers from 1 to 39 or can go for a Quick Pick to enter with random selections. Combo tickets are also available, enabling players to choose up to 10 numbers, which are then entered into the draw in every possible combination.

Fantasy 5 has a Double Play option for $1.00, for the chance to enter numbers into a second draw and win up to $110,000 and, due to its format, the Double Play jackpot is sometimes larger than the main game’s top prize!

Players can also add EZmatch to their ticket for a further $1.00 to win up to $500 on the spot.

Daily 4

Daily 4 is a Pick 4 game that costs $1.00 to enter, with multiple entry options.

Players must choose four numbers from 0 to 9, and because each number is chosen independently, the same number can be chosen repeatedly if desired. Participants then choose whether to bet on matching their numbers in the order drawn, in any order, or to split their stake equally between both options.

Participants can also choose a 1-Off wager to win prizes by matching three numbers in the correct order, but with the fourth digit needing to be one away from the number chosen. For example; choosing 1234 would win if 1235, 1233, 1244, 1224, 1134, 1334, 2234 or 0234 are drawn.

Daily 3

Daily 3 is a Pick 3 game with multiple entry options and betting stakes of either $0.50 or $1.00.

Players must choose three numbers from 0 to 9, and because each number is chosen independently, the same number can be chosen repeatedly if desired. Participants then choose whether to bet on matching their numbers in the order drawn, in any order, or to split their stake equally between both options.

Participants can also choose a 1-Off wager to win prizes by matching two numbers in the correct order, but with the third digit needing to be one away from the number chosen. For example; choosing 123 would win if 223, 023, 133, 113, 122 or 124 are drawn.
