The Powerball jackpot has reached an impressive $700 million for the upcoming Saturday, Aug. 23 drawing. This marks the third jackpot win in four months, with previous winners earning prizes of $328.5 million and $527 million.
To play, tickets cost $2 and can be purchased at various locations, including convenience stores, gas stations, and grocery stores. Players must choose six numbers: five white balls from 1 to 69 and a red Powerball from 1 to 26. An optional “Power Play” feature can increase winnings for non-jackpot prizes.
No one has won the $700 million jackpot yet, but there have been recent winners in other draws. The next drawing will take place on Monday, Aug. 25, just after 11 p.m. ET.
A person matching all five numbers and the Powerball can choose a one-time cash payment of $316.3 million. For more information, visit the official lottery website or check out Jackpocket, the official digital lottery courier for the USA TODAY Network.
