How to play Powerball

Want to play Powerball but not quite sure how it works? Here are some things to know.

To play Powerball, you first select five white ball numbers. These five numbers will be between one and 69. Then, pick one "Powerball" or red ball number. This number will be between one and 26.
For an extra dollar, you may choose to "power play," which multiplies all non-grand prize winnings by a factor of 2, 3, 4, 5, or 10.
If you match at least one number in the Powerball drawing, you win a prize.

Powerball hits the U.K.

Powerball went international on Tuesday, July 21. Opening up the lottery game to the United Kingdom means growing prizes in the U.S. as money from sales goes to the overall jackpot prize, according to Powerball.

"Players in the UK will be able to play for the same Powerball jackpot available to players in the United States beginning with the Powerball drawing on Wednesday, July 22," a release from Powerball stated.

The expansion overseas will not change the game's pricing, and funds generated via the lottery for education and other programs will still remain.

“Just as importantly, this expansion does not change where the money goes,” said Rebecca Paul, President & CEO of the Tennessee Lottery and former President of the World Lottery Association. “Every Powerball ticket sold in the U.S. will continue to support programs and services right here at home."
