How the game works

Pick from two separate number pools.

A play uses 5 main numbers from 1–69 and one Powerball from 1–26. The Powerball is drawn separately and is never combined with main-number statistics.

Rules, prizes, and odds

Match probability and payouts are different questions.

The jackpot requires all five main numbers plus the separate Powerball. There are nine advertised winning tiers, while multiplier treatment and jurisdiction exceptions affect eligible payouts.

Power Play

The optional add-on multiplies eligible non-jackpot prizes. It does not multiply the jackpot or change the numbers on a ticket.

  • A drawing is never “due” because of an earlier result.
  • Lower prize tiers occur more often than the jackpot.
  • Advertised prize treatment can vary by jurisdiction.
