How the Powerball Drawing Functions
Players who participate in the lottery game need to match the five white balls, including the red powerball. However, it is not guaranteed that the jackpot will be awarded every draw since there are billions of potential number combinations.
When the prize money gradually increases, more and more players will participate in the game to get a chance at winning all of it. As mentioned a while ago, the only time the winner will not be able to get the total prize money is when another player within the same draw wins, so the money will be divided depending on the number of winners. Keep in mind that the more people join the game, the more chances of a winner within the successive draws.
Once there is a winner declared, the prize money of the game will restart back to $40 million, and it will increase at least by 10 million each time there is no winner announced for the jackpot. The jackpot will usually reach hundreds of millions of dollars every time no winner is announced. You should know that the biggest Powerball prize money in the whole world was a record-breaking $1.5 billion in 2016.
