The Double Play numbers for Wednesday’s drawing are also pending.
Powerball drawings are held three times a week – on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays – at approximately 10:59 p.m. ET.
A single Powerball ticket costs $2. Players can increase their potential winnings by adding the Power Play for an additional $1, which can multiply non-jackpot prizes by two, three, four, five, or ten times. The 10x multiplier is only available when the advertised jackpot is $150 million or less.
Even matching just one number – the Powerball itself – wins a $4 prize. Matching one white number plus the Powerball is also worth $4. Matching two white numbers plus the Powerball yields $7, while three white numbers only win $7. Three white numbers plus the Powerball are worth $100. Four white numbers only win $100, and four white numbers plus the Powerball win $50,000. Finally, matching all five white numbers wins $1 million.
