The Powerball lottery’s 20th birthday is on the 15th January 2012 and in celebration is getting a complete makeover. Starting with a doubling of the opening jackpot from $20 million to $40 million, making it the largest opening jackpot of any lottery game in American history, increasing the second, match-five prize from $200,000 to $1 million, and upping the lowest prize for matching just the red Powerball from $3 to $4.
Players in the newly designed game will still choose their first five numbers from a pool of 59, but the group of numbers in the Powerball pool will shrink from 39 to 35, improving the overall prize winning ratio from 1-in-35 to 1-in-31.8.
You can buy Powerball tickets right here at WinTrillions, drawings are held on Wednesdays and Saturdays; with the next draw later later today. There’s an estimated jackpot of $124 million just sitting there and it could well have your name on it, but only if you’ve got a ticket – there’s still enough time, but it’s winding down fast!
