Besides providing three chances per week for players to win big as drawings take place every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, Powerball allocates more than half of all proceeds from ticket sales to the jurisdiction where the tickets were sold.
Powerball tickets are currently sold in 45 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, while its drawings are broadcast live from the Florida Lottery draw studio in Tallahassee and streamed on the lottery’s website, Powerball.com.
Earlier this month, Powerball minted its latest millionaire after a lucky ticket sold in Washington matched all six numbers to win a whopping $754.6 million jackpot and register the ninth-largest win in the history of the lottery.
