Ticket costs
In Illinois, the cost of a single ticket for Powerball typically ranges from $2 to $5, depending on the selected play type and the amount wagered. Powerball offers various play options, including different bet amounts and the option to add additional features such as the Power Play. Players can select their preferred play type and manually choose their numbers or opt for a Quick Pick, where the numbers are randomly generated by the lottery terminal. The ticket cost may vary based on the specific play type chosen and any additional features selected.
Zero prize amounts
In Illinois Powerball, there are typically no prizes awarded for matching zero numbers. Since the objective is to match numbers drawn in specific combinations, failing to match any numbers means that the player did not win a prize. In Powerball, players select five numbers from a pool of 1 to 69 and one Powerball number from a separate pool of 1 to 26. To win the jackpot, players must match all five main numbers and the Powerball number. If none of the player’s selected numbers match the winning numbers drawn, they do not win a prize.
Multipliers
In Illinois Powerball, there are typically no multipliers available. Unlike some other lottery games that offer multipliers to increase non-jackpot prizes, Powerball is a straightforward game where players select five numbers and one Powerball number, attempting to match the drawn numbers in specific combinations. Players can choose from various play options, such as Straight, Box, Straight/Box, Pairs, Combo, and Sum, each offering different prize amounts based on the selected play type and wager amount. However, multipliers are not part of the Powerball game structure in Illinois.
Bonus/extra draws
In Illinois Powerball, there are typically no bonus or extra draws beyond the main bi-weekly draws. Powerball is a multi-state lottery game where players select five numbers from a pool of 1 to 69 and one Powerball number from a separate pool of 1 to 26. Each week, there are two draws held on specified days. Players can purchase tickets for the draw, and there are no additional bonus or extra draws beyond the scheduled bi-weekly draws. The results of the main draws determine the winning numbers and prize payouts for that week’s Powerball game.
