Michigan Lottery Through the Years
February 25, 2001 – Sales for Michigan Millions (6/51) begin, replacing Michigan Lotto. Michigan Lotto began in 1984, butdeclined in popularity over the past several years. To play Michigan Millions, players select six numbers from a field of 51. During the drawing, the Lottery draws six numbers from a field of 51. Anyone matching six numbers wins the jackpot. The Lottery then draws a seventh number – the Wild Ball – from the remaining 45. Players matching five numbers and the Wild Ball win an estimated $20,000 prize. There are four other ways to win, with and without the Wild Ball: Cash prizes are awarded for matching sixnumbers; five numbers; five numbers plus the Wild Ball; four numbers; four numbers plus the Wild Ball; and three numbers plus the Wild Ball. The top five prizes are pari-mutuel and therefore, may vary from drawing to drawing. The first drawing is held February 28. ... [Read More]

National Indian Gaming Commission - Legal Opinion: CashPot
In order for “CASHPOT” or any other similar instant scratch-off game to qualify as a class II game, it must have the physical and procedural characteristics of one of the enumerated class II games.

A review of state gambling laws that do define these games reveals that they are essentially the same games.

Tickets are purchased in sets by the gaming operation; each set contains a predetermined mix of winners and lose ... [Read More]
