To play, you must choose five numbers from the first set of 39 numbers and one Hot Ball number from the second set of 19 numbers. The minimum jackpot is set at $1 million, but it can increase significantly depending on the amount of tickets that are sold and the amount of times the jackpot is rolled over. This game also has a Sizzler option which doubles the total cost of the ticket, but if you mark the Sizzler box and win, you will triple the prize won (except for the jackpot prize).
