  • The situation becomes clearer in terms of the famous lottery paradox. Consider a fair lottery with as many tickets as you wish - i.e., with an arbitrarily large probability that any particular ticket will not win. If we detach and assert hypotheses that are sufficiently probable, we can assert that this ticket will not win.

Results

If you play as part of a lottery pool and win a prize, separate payments can be made to up to 99 individuals in a group. One member of the pool needs to sign the ticket and claim form, but you must then also submit an IRS 5754 form to claim as a group. This tax form divides the tax liability for group prizes. Everyone must present their own valid photographic identification.

Claim Period

There is a 180-day deadline for Powerball prizes in Indiana, starting from the date of the draw. You must come forward within this period otherwise you will miss out on your prize and the money will stay with the lottery to pay for future prizes and promotions.

Lost and Damaged Tickets

All Powerball tickets are bearer instruments, so anyone in possession of a winning entry can file a claim. You will not be able to receive a prize if you lose your ticket, so you should sign the back of it to prove it belongs to you and prevent anyone else from making a claim. If your ticket has been damaged, you can still try to claim a prize but it must meet a series of validation requirements before you can be paid out.

Going Public

There is a Public Records law in Indiana which means that the Hoosier Lottery must disclose the details of all its big winners. However, you can claim prizes through legal trusts or limited liability companies to shield your name from the wider world and effectively remain anonymous.

Where Does the Money Go?

Hoosier Lottery Post

The majority of the revenue generated from Powerball tickets in Indiana, 60 percent, goes straight back to players in the form of prize money. Seven percent is paid to retailers in commissions, while operating expenses account for six percent. The remaining 27 percent is reserved for good causes, and more than $5.3 billion has been distributed for the benefit of the state since the Hoosier Lottery started in 1989.

The money for good causes is split several different ways, but so far the Build Indiana Fund has received $3.9 billion to help major economic development projects. Over $820 million has gone to the Teachers’ Retirement Fund, while local police and firefighters’ pensions have benefited to the tune of more than $630 million.

Indiana Powerball Winners

There have been more jackpot-winning tickets sold in Indiana than any other state in the U.S., dating back to the very first drawing on April 22nd 1992, when Bert Morlan, an 85-year-old former mayor of the city of Brazil, pocketed $5.9 million. The biggest win of them all came on February 22nd 2017, when a Purdue University graduate from the Greater Lafayette area claimed $435 million. A manufacturing worker, he received the prize through a limited liability company called Bohemian Financial, LLC in order to stay private. He opted for the cash sum of $263 million rather than the annuity.
