As Powerball jackpot rises to $875 million, these are the odds of winning
CBSN
The Powerball jackpot is now worth $875 million, but bettors' odds of winning are slim.
The pot rose from $750 million after there were no winners in Wednesday's drawing. For $2, those who want a shot at winning the big prize get one ticket with odds of winning of 1 in 292.2 million.
Beyond purchasing multiple tickets, there's little players can do to improve those odds, according to betting experts. Certainly, it's extremely unlikely that you'll win the big prize, but chances are also slim that you'll win even a few bucks.
