But there ’s a catch.
First you have to risk losing a whopping $2.
Colorado Lottery’s $2 MatchPlay tickets go on sale Sunday. It’s the state’s first new jackpot game in nine years.
You get three lines of six numbers for your $2 investment. Six numbers across the top line pays the jackpot. Cha-ching!
Whoa, don’t get too excited yet. Your odds of winning the top prize are 1-in-2,760,681.
You can also win $2-to-$1,000 by other matching combinations. Overall odds of at least getting your two bucks back are 1-in-6. Better odds than those $1 state lottery jackpot games,
MatchPlay drawings are 7:40 p.m. Tuesday and Friday. The $100,000 jackpot increases by at least $10,000 per drawing until hit.
With this new game – and all the medical marijuana joints popping up - the state of Colorado should be rolling in some form of the green stuff soon.
