In certain rare instances, the Lotto America Game set prize amount may be less than the amount shown. In such case, the eight (8) lowest Power Play prizes will be changed to an amount announced after the draw. For example, if the Match 4+1 Lotto America set prize amount of $1,000.00 becomes $500.00 under the rules of the Lotto America game and a 5x multiplier is selected, then an All Star Bonus player winning that prize amount would win $2,500.00.
