Welcome to the go‑to spot for everything PowerBall. Whether you check the draw every week or are just curious about how the game works, this page gives you the basics, the latest numbers, and a few ideas to make your play a bit smarter.
PowerBall is a 6‑number lottery. You pick five white balls from 1‑69 and one red PowerBall from 1‑26. The jackpot grows until someone matches all six numbers. Matching fewer numbers still wins smaller prizes, and the prize table is the same across most regions.
The draw happens on Tuesday and Friday evenings. Numbers are chosen by a mechanical drum, so the result is completely random. You can play online, at a retailer, or via a mobile app that links directly to the official lottery operator.
Here are the most recent PowerBall numbers (as of the latest draw):
White balls: 12 – 23 – 34 – 45 – 57
PowerBall: 19
The jackpot for this draw was R 75 million, and two tickets matched five white balls plus the PowerBall for a $1 million prize each. If you played these numbers, check your ticket right away – prizes must be claimed within 90 days.

Now that you know the basics and the latest numbers, let’s talk about odds and some practical tips that can help you play responsibly.
The overall odds of winning any prize are roughly 1 in 24.5. Hitting the jackpot (matching all six numbers) is about 1 in 292 million. Those are long odds, which is why most players treat PowerBall as entertainment rather than a reliable income source.
If you want better chances of smaller prizes, focus on the lower prize tiers. Matching just the PowerBall wins a free ticket in many jurisdictions, and matching three white balls can net a few hundred dollars. The key is to understand that the bigger the prize, the lower the probability.
Below are three simple habits that can improve your PowerBall experience.
Remember, no strategy can change the random nature of the draw, but these habits keep your play fun and affordable.
Finally, play responsibly. If you find yourself chasing losses or spending more than you can afford, pause and seek help. Many lottery operators offer self‑exclusion tools and links to counseling services.
