Are the odds playing super lotto better than playing mega millions?

Do the odds of winning the lottery change based on the number of people playing?

• the odds of winning the jackpot doesn’t change regardless of the number of people. your odds remain the same for every ticket that you have. it’s not a cumulative thing. for example, every ticket you possess for Powerball has the same odds:1 in 195,249,054 no matter how many people play. The Mega Millions odds is1 in 175,711,536 for each ticket you hold regardless of how many people play. each of your tickets represents a person playing.Accorting to tim in the following link.http://www.bargaineering.com/articles/win-and-tell-and-why-do-people-play-the-lottery.html

• Answer:

  Your odds of winning are based solely on the statistics, and nothing anyone else does can affect those. The amount of people playing would affect how much you would possibly win, as more people means a greater chance that someone else picked your numbers as well, which means the pot would be split amongst all the winners decreasing your winnings.
