Powerball is an American popular lottery game offered in 44 member states as a shared jackpot game. Powerball drawings occur 2 times a week every Wednesday and Saturday night at 7:59 PM Pacific Time. Powerball uses a 5/69 (white balls) + 1/26 (Powerballs) matrix to randomly pick winning numbers. Each play costs $2. Players can choose to pay $1 extra to buy the Power Play option, which multiplies the winnings except grand prize. The minimum Powerball jackpot starts at $40,000,000. Its annuity option is paid in 30 graduated payments in 29 years. Winners can choose one lump-sum cash payout option instead.
