Powerball organizers are taking a gamble, betting players will pay twice as much for a shot at the jackpot.
The price of a Powerball ticket doubles on Sunday to two dollars.
Organizers believe the change will draw more people to the Powerball because the minimum jackpot will also double from $20 to $40 million.
The move is also meant to distinguish the Powerball from its partner multi-state lottery, "Mega Millions."
