HOW DO I WIN?
WHAT IS POWER PLAY®?
Prizes are awarded for matching combinations of white
and red balls. Players who match all 6 numbers in any
Powerball drawing win all or a share of the jackpot.
There are nine different ways for players to win.
•Increase winnings by purchasing Power Play option. If you win, you win more!
HOW ARE PRIZES DISTRIBUTED?
•If Power Play has been selected, and the ticket wins any prize level from $4 to $1 million, the prize will increase as shown in table above.
Jackpot prize is estimated and will be divided equally
among all winning tickets. Powerball officials may
reduce prize levels for Powerball and/or Power Play,
including the Match 5+0 prize, in the event that an
unanticipated number of winner claims exceed the
available prize fund for a given draw. In such instances
the dollars allocated to each prize level impacted will be
divided equally among all winners of that prize.
•Power Play applies to all lines of play on a ticket and costs $1 per line of play per drawing. For example,
3 lines of Powerball + Power Play cost $9.
•If 5 white ball numbers have been matched with
the Power Play option, the ticket winnings are
$2 million.
