Playing the Indiana lotto can be extremely exciting even if you do not end up winning the big prize. Not only are there many ways to win on each game, there are also a variety of different games to choose from, including scratch-off, pull tab and drawing games. The most popular and most lucrative Indiana lotto game is the Hoosier lotto. It is a drawing game, and it pays out the largest jackpot of any other Indiana lotto game.

How to Play the Hoosier Lotto

The Hoosier Lotto is easy to play. You simply pay one dollar to receive a playing board. You must choose six numbers per play, and if you match all six of the numbers drawn, you hit the jackpot. The minimum jackpot is set at one million dollars, but it can increase significantly depending on the amount of tickets that are sold and the amount of times the jackpot is rolled over after no one wins. If you get five or fewer numbers right, you can still receive a cash prize, though it is significantly less than the grand prize. Getting five out of six numbers correct will typically win about a thousand dollars, and four out of six will win about fifty dollars. You get three dollars for three numbers and a free Quick Pick for matching two of six.

The Indiana Powerball Lottery

You can also play Powerbal Lotto in Indiana. The game involves choosing five numbers between one and fifty-five and one Powerball lotto number between one and forty-two. Matching all six numbers will win you the jackpot. You can also play a Power ball 'Power Play' option. It costs a dollar extra to play this feature, but if you win any prize other than the jackpot, the prize is multiplied by five.
