There are nine ways to win in Powerball, return to your Powerball retailer or Lottery headquarters for validation of your tickets.
Match 5 Bonus Prize
Whenever the Powerball jackpot reaches a "new" record level,
the amount of the jackpot prize is limited to increases for each draw
of no more than $25 million. The jackpot prize money collected in excess of the
maximum $25 million increase is then placed into a new Match 5 Bonus prize
pool and will accumulate until there is a jackpot winner. When there is
a jackpot winner, the Match 5 Bonus prize pool will be divided equally
among all winners of the Match 5 prize. The prize will be paid in one
cash lump sum.
The Match 5 Bonus prize is in addition to any Power
Play prizes that may be won. The Match 5 Bonus prize
is not multiplied.
For example, a Match 5 Power Play winner will get the regular $1 million prize (since, in the new game, the multiplier is always 5x).
Then the Match Bonus pool will be split evenly among all Match 5 winners. If the share of the Match 5 Bonus pool is $500,000, then
each Match 5 winner gets an extra $500,000 (for a total of $700,000) and each Match 5 Power Play winner gets a total of $1,500,000.
Although it is unlikely, if no Match 5 winner exists, then the Match 5 Bonus prize pool will be paid out to the Match 4+1 winners. |
