If you get two numbers correctly on the Powerball game, you won’t win the jackpot, but you could still win some money. Depending on the prize structure of the particular drawing, you might win anything from a few dollars to several thousand dollars depending on how many other people got the same numbers.
If no one got the same two numbers, then you will win the full second-tier prize amount.
Will 1 numbers win anything in Powerball?
No, 1 number will not win anything in Powerball. In order to win the Powerball jackpot, you must match all 5 numbers from the first set of white balls plus the Powerball number from the second set of red balls.
If you only match some of the numbers, you may be able to win smaller prizes depending on how many you matched and the Power Play option which is drawn randomly. For example, if you match 1 white ball with the Powerball, you can win $4 without the Power Play option and up to $40 with the Power Play option.
Do you win money if you have 3 numbers in Powerball?
No, you do not win money if you have 3 numbers in Powerball. To win a prize in the Powerball lottery, you must match all five white ball numbers and the Powerball number drawn. Prizes start at $4 for correctly matching just the Powerball number, but the jackpot is won if you match all five white ball numbers and the Powerball number.
There are also second and third-tier prizes for matching four or five numbers, but not the Powerball number.
Do you win anything on Powerball if you have 2 numbers?
No, in order to win any prize from Powerball you must match at least three numbers. Matching two numbers (also known as only hitting the Powerball) is not enough to win any of the prizes. When you purchase a Powerball ticket, you must select five numbers from 1 to 69 (the white balls) and one Powerball number from 1 to 26 (the red ball).
If you match three, four, or five white balls, plus the red Powerball, then you will win a prize. Matching only two white balls plus the red Powerball gives you no prize. The prizes start with a minimum of $4 for matching just the Powerball and grow to the multibillion-dollar jackpots when all of the numbers are matched.
How many numbers do you need to win a prize in Powerball?
In order to win a prize in the Powerball lottery, you will need to match all five of the main numbers plus the Powerball number. The five main numbers are 1 – 69 and the Powerball is 1 – 26. To match all six numbers you must have the correct order and all numbers must match what is drawn.
If you match two, three, four, or five of the white balls and the Powerball, you can also win a lower tier prize.
Powerball also offers additional prizes with the Power Play option. A Power Play multiplier of up to 10x is randomly selected during each drawing, and any non-jackpot prizes won by a player can be multiplied by the Power Play number for larger wins.
Good luck!
