Monday Powerball Jackpot to cross 400m

Powerball lottery of USA saw no jackpot winner in the saturday's drawing. Nobody got ticket with all six numbers, so the jackpot for Monday's drawing is set to rise to over $400 million.

The Powerball lottery is multi-state, so there is no requirement for the winner to be a resident of California state.This lottery is played in 45 states in the United States, including the District of Columbia, Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.​

What make the Powerball thinks that people would get it's ticket after raising it to the tune of $400 millions?. What I think they should do is to set up committee to unravel why they didn't record jackpot winners.

why raising the amount of the ticket, that will even discourage some people from getting the ticket thats not too good at all, something has to be done

Now I understand. Since there is no winner for the previous lottery, Powerball jackpot of USA has to increase the jackpot to the tune of $400 million so as to encourage more patronage.

They really increased the jackpot inorder to ensure more patronage. When there is no winner, the next thing to do is to raise the tune of the money so as to ensure that people still participate despite the lose.

Actually, raising of the ticket will ensure more patronage according to the post. The ticket was raised when there was no sale and winner at all. With this, there is likely we have more participants

Why raise the price of the ticket when it might even deter some people from purchasing it? That's not good at all; something needs to be done.
They really raised the prize to attract more customers. When there is no winner, the next step is to increase the amount of money to ensure that participants continue to take part regardless the outcome.

I think that is what the comoany. The company increased the money to be won. But I believe it is just a way of attracting more customers to play the game. When there is no winner, there is tendency that people will not want to partake in it
