Powerball uses a 5/69+1/26 matrix to randomly choose winning numbers. Each play costs $2. Players can choose to spend $1 extra to purchase the Power Play, which increases the prizes but not grand prize. The minimum Powerball advertised grand prize is $40,000,000. Its annuity option is paid in 30 graduated installments. Winners can choose one time lump-sum cash payout instead.
