How to Play and Win Powerball
To win a prize in Powerball, a player must match at least the red Powerball number, which earns $4. Matching one white ball and the Powerball also results in a $4 prize. Prizes increase as more numbers are matched.
A standard Powerball ticket costs $2. For an additional $1, players can add the Power Play feature to multiply non-jackpot winnings. The Double Play option, also an extra $1, enters a player’s numbers into a separate drawing for a chance to win up to $10 million.
Drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET.
