Powerball Lottery Jackpot Grows to $80 Million for Wednesday’s Draw

The Powerball lottery jackpot has rolled over once again which means that this week players have the chance to win an $80 million jackpot or a cash prize worth $48.8 million.

On Saturday there was one player in Colorado that matched five numbers with the Power Play option to win $2 million while another player in Kentucky matched five numbers to win $1 million. Over all there were 371,533 winners and they shared prizes worth a total of $5,548,122.

It is possible to buy tickets for the Powerball from vendors across the United States or online. This means that it is possible to enter no matter where you are in the world.

Each line of numbers costs $2 and it is possible to buy as many lines as you wish for each draw.

Prizes are awarded to any player that matches at least the Powerball or at least three standard numbers without the Powerball. To win the jackpot it is necessary to match all six numbers.

Players can also use the Power Play option as the winner in Colorado did. This will significantly increase any non-jackpot winnings and only costs $1 per line.
