Powerball Jackpot up to $50 Million

  by: admin - Category: Powerball, powerball lottery

Powerball lottery jackpot is up to $5o Million as the winning six numbers did not match any ticket over the weekend. Founded in the state of Colorado in 1992, Powerball is currently played in 29 states as well as the District of Columbia and the US Virgin Islands. In its earlier version, Powerball was known as Lotto America, only gaining the current name in 1992.

Powerball was the first game to use two drums for the draws, allowing the possibility of high level odds and low level odds for different prizes. For example, in last week’s draw two tickets purchased matched the first five numbers enough to win $400,000 each.
