59 white – 39 red = 195,249,054 - Standard US Powerball Game, 1 in every 195,249,054
50 - 25 = 52,969,000
40 - 15 = 9,870,120
30 - 10 = 1,425,060
25 - 10 = 531,300
20 - 8 = 124,032 - Default Odds, 1 in every 124,032
20 - 5 = 77,520
15 - 5 = 15,015
10 - 5 = 1,260
Calculation:
n = # of white ball possible
k = # white balls (5)
r = # of red balls possible
COMBIN(n, k) * r
COMBIN(N,K) is equal to: FACT(N) / (FACT(K) * FACT(N-K)
FACT on a calculator is usually N!
Payout:
Profit: Total gold generated from purchasing tickets and entries during that particular game. Can be accessed via PowerBallGame.cs
Jackpot: ( Profit / 2 ) / # of jackpot winners
PowerBall: 500; this is on top of any 3 or 4 white match tickets, or by itself
3 White Matches: ( Profit / 50 ) / # of tickets with 3 matches
4 White Matches: ( Profit / 20 ) / # of tickets with 4 matches
5 White Matches: ( Profit / 10 ) / # of tickets with 5 matches
With this system, the payouts should be pretty good as long as there are a lot of tickets/entries being bought. Not including any standalone powerball winnings, the payout should be roughly 67% of the total profit taken in for that particular game. Each time a game goes without a Jackpot, the profit will continue to increase.
