To play, choose five white ball numbers from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball number from 1 to 26. For an extra dollar, add the "Power Play" option to increase non-jackpot prizes by 2–10 times. Alternatively, request a "Quick Pick" ticket with computer-generated numbers.

Drawings occur on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. If there's no jackpot winner, the prize money rolls over, increasing the jackpot for the next drawing.

Remember, when the fun stops, stop.
