A Powerball lottery jackpot is something most people would love to win. When a percentage of these lotteries drawn are not won because no one has the winning combination of numbers, the amount is rolled over to the next game and this may go on over a number of weeks. The jackpot prize may end up doubling, then trebling and so on till it is in the millions of dollars.
Then someone will come up with the winning numbers and find themselves on top of the world, probably planning all sorts of things. Sometimes there is more than one winner and the first prize is shared between those that had the winning tickets.
Have you ever thought about what it would be like to win the lottery. If you have then you know the first thing you need to do is get your ticket in.
To play the lottery, or lotto, five numbers need to be picked, then there is an additional number called the powerball. When a game is played and this powerball number comes up along with the five others in the winning combination of a draw, then the jackpot has been won. When picking the additional number this is taken from a new set of numbers which are different from the first. The extra number is played in a numbers grid which is not included in the grid with the five numbers.
There are numerous states which run a powerball and these games mostly have a five number pick then the additional number, some have extra prizes for an extra number depending on where one chooses to enter.
Lottery is a game of chance and plenty of luck but there is a saying that goes, if you are not in it, you cannot win it. It is an individuals choice if they enter or not and it can also become a problem for some as it is a gambling game, so one really needs a clear indication of how much they plan to spend on a ticket and how much not to. This might help keep it from becoming a gambling problem.
