Powerball
Powerball is one of the most popular lotteries in the United States, offering enormous jackpots that regularly run into the hundreds of millions of dollars. The jackpot starts at $20 million (*During the Coronavirus pandemic, the starting jackpot may be lower than this) and there is no cap, meaning it continues to increase until it is won. The $1.58 billion Powerball jackpot shared by three players in January 2016 is still the biggest jackpot prize ever won in a lottery anywhere in the world.

The Powerball lottery takes place every Wednesday and Saturday night. The winning numbers are drawn at 10:59pm EST at the headquarters of the Florida Lottery in Tallahassee.
