Meanwhile, there was no grand prize winner at the Mega Millions lottery Tuesday night, but 4 players brought house $1million.

"It's a form of entertainment, an escape, a way to dream," says Kimberly Chopin with Louisiana Lottery.

There are nine ways to win, beginning with $4 for matching just the Powerball.

Even though Lotto, Powerball, Mega Millions and a vast lineup of scratch-off games now expense $2 and up, players can nevertheless obtain games for $1 if they’re willing to accept smaller sized possible payouts.
