Powerball: the rules used here
Select five different main numbers from 1–69, and one Powerball from 1–26. Main-ball order does not matter. The special ball may have the same value as a main ball.

A play costs $2. Optional Power Play costs $1 more. It multiplies eligible lower prizes by the official drawing multiplier; matching five main balls with Power Play pays a fixed $2 million under the standard prize table. It never multiplies the jackpot. The 10X option is available only when that drawing’s initially advertised annuity jackpot is at most $150 million.

All other combinations have no prize. Jackpot adverts are estimates, not your confirmed payout. California’s variable prizes and other ticket jurisdictions require their own rules. Double Play is a separate drawing and is not supported by this checker.
These reference calculations remain pending independent rule review. Source revisions, unknown multipliers and unknown jackpot amounts are retained explicitly.
