YOU'RE chances of winning are doubled. That doesn't mean anything when your chances of winning are still 1 in a billion.

well if there are a million tickets, and you have one its a 1 in a million chance, if you buy 2 its a 2 in a million chance.. So not very much
It all depends how many total tickets there are that would increase your odds at a different rate.

Buying two tickets will double your chances, but that doesn't necessarily mean they get much better.
If there are 10 tickets and 1 will win, then buying two makes your chances go from 10% to 20%, a pretty big jump.
But if there are a million tickets and 1 will win, then your chances double from .0001% to .0002%. So they doubled, but they are still very very low
