Accordingly, an increasing number of ticket sales will lead to a larger jackpot.
By setting the odds lower, the multi-jurisdictional lottery makes it more difficult for purchasers of lottery game tickets to win the jackpot prize.

BACKGROUND [0001] 1. Field [0002] A system and method are disclosed which generally relate to lotteries. [0003] 2. General Background [0004] A lottery is generally a distribution of tokens such that a subset of the distributed tokens may win a prize. The token can be in the form of a ticket. One of the most popular forms of lottery involves the distribution of lottery game tickets. Each lottery game ticket includes a lottery game number. After the lottery game tickets have been distributed to the lottery game ticket holders, the winning number is chosen. The usual method of selecting the winning number involves a random selection of the winning number. A random number generator can be used to randomly select the winning number. Some lottery systems require the ticket to have the entire number that is randomly selected while other lottery systems require the ticket to have a superset of an ordered sequence of numbers that are randomly selected. [0005] Lotteries are normally used by j...
