Kansas Cash Lottery Overview |
The Kansas Cash Lottery is the official lottery of Kansas, the
state of the USA. It is drawn 3 times a week, which is certainly some
measure of its popularity, and as a rule of thumb, the most popular
lotteries are generally the best ones to enter, as the prizes are
normally higher, given that a percentage of the entry fees are allocated
to the prize pool. The minimum jackpot is $100,000 per draw, and with a
thrice-weekly draw, you can expect the jackpot to grow pretty darn
quickly.
This is a Powerball lottery, so you get to select 5 numbers and one
extra bonus number. There are then two parts to the draw - first, 5
numbers are drawn from a pool of 32 numbers, and then the Powerball is
drawn from a separate pool of 25 numbers. This structure creates 8 prize
levels, with prizes awarded to anyone who matches 1 normal number plus
the Powerball number. To win the jackpot you need to correctly predict
all 5 main numbers plus the Powerball.
Kansas Cash Lottery is unusual amongst USA lotteries in that
it will pay you the full amount of any jackpot you win in cash as a lump
sum - this is more in line with European lottery rules, and may be a
contributing factor to the popularity of this lottery. |
