Everything you need to know about the Powerball jackpot and the next drawing for April 22, 2023.

A winning $252.6 million Powerball jackpot ticket was sold in Ohio for the Wednesday, April 19 drawing.

Wednesday’s lucky ticket holder has the choice between an estimated annuity of $252.6 million, paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years, or a lump sum payment of $134.7 million. Both options are before taxes.

HOW MUCH IS POWERBALL JACKPOT?

$20 million (estimated)

Again, you can’t win if you don’t buy a ticket, which conveniently can be done online from your home through Jackpot.com.

The Powerball jackpot grows until it is won. As mentioned, to win the grand prize, you must match all five white ball numbers and the red Powerball.

If you correctly pick all the white balls but miss the red Powerball, you’re guaranteed $1 million and can win $2 million if the Power Play is 2x through 10x.

Four correct white balls and the red Powerball = $50,000 multiplied by the Power Play multiplier. (See: Powerball prize chart).

WHAT IS THE POWER PLAY?

An additional $1 per play activates the Power Play feature, which multiplies prizes by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 times.

The multiplier number is randomly selected before each drawing.

The 10x multiplier is only in play when the jackpot annuity is $150 million or less.
