Guide for powerball Lottery

What is the Powerball Lottery?

Powerball is a multi-state lottery in all the United States except the District of Columbia and the Virgin Islands. When he replaced the Lotto * America lottery in 1992, he became the first lottery game to use two drums to attract the winners (one for the white balls and one for the red Powerball himself). The winners are drawn on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 10:59 pm (Eastern Time) using drawings made at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.

The winning numbers are announced on television, on the Powerball website, and in newspapers, among other places.

The Powerball lottery offers a jackpot that starts at $ 40 million and grows at least $ 10 million each time the jackpot is not awarded. The jackpot can, and often does, reach values ​​of hundreds of millions of dollars and more. By the end of 2016, the biggest lottery lottery in world history was a Powerball jackpot valued at over $ 1.5 billion.

But there's more to Powerball than jackpots. In each draw, other cash prizes worth between $ 4 and $ 2,000,000 are also awarded. The value of winning prizes depends on the number of numbers they guess correctly and the number of prizes awarded is limited only by the number of people making the correct assumptions.
