Can you buy Power Play in Oregon?

Yes. It costs $1 a play on top of the $2 ticket and multiplies every prize below the jackpot by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 — the 10 only when the advertised jackpot is $150 million or less. We price that extra dollar at about 46 cents at a large jackpot and 50 cents when the 10× ball is in the drum.

Is Double Play available in Oregon?

No. 30 of the 48 Powerball lotteries offer Double Play and Oregon is not one of them, so a Oregon ticket tops out at $3 a line. powerball.com publishes the list, and says more lotteries may add it later.

How much tax does Oregon take from a Mega Millions win?

Oregon withholds 8% (withholds 8%; top rate 9.9% settled at filing), on top of the 24% held back federally. On the cash value of the jackpot as it stands now that is about $10 million to the state alone. Withholding is not the final bill — what you actually owe is settled when you file. Run your own number through the calculator.

Are Mega Millions prizes in Oregon the same as the national prize chart?

Yes. Every prize below the jackpot is a set cash amount in Oregon, exactly as the national chart prints it. Only California pays pari-mutuel instead.

What an Oregon ticket is worth right now

The advertised jackpot is $244 million. The cash value is about $122 million, because the headline is a 30-year annuity and nobody takes it. At that jackpot our sales model puts the chance of having to share a win at enough that a winning ticket is worth 95% of the prize on average rather than all of it. Then Oregon withholds 8% — about $10 million of that cash value — and the federal 24% comes off on top of that.

The withholding only comes off the jackpot term here, not off the whole figure. Nearly all of a ticket's non-jackpot value sits in the $4.00 and $7.00 tiers, which no state withholds on; taxing those too would push the number down in a way that happens to flatter our own conclusion, so we do not. The draw-by-draw chart behind this is on the Mega Millions page.

Hot and cold numbers

The drawing is national, so the frequencies are too — there is no Oregon hot number, only a Mega Millions one. Over 928 draws of the current 5/70 + 1/24 matrix, 10 has come up most (86 times against 66 expected) and 11 has waited longest, 52 draws.

10 has come up most often, 86 times. Each number averages about 66 over 928 draws, and whichever number happens to lead normally finishes around 19 ahead. 10 is 20 ahead, so this is an ordinary spread rather than a streak. 51 has come up least, 52 times.
