61 Pa. Code § app J § 871.2 - Game description and purpose
(a) Powerball is a
five out of 69 plus one out of 26 on-line lottery game which pays the grand
prize on an annuitized, parimutuel basis. Except as provided in this chapter,
all other prizes are paid on a set cash, single payment basis.
(b) The purpose of the Powerball game is to
determine winners from ticket holders matching five numbers from 1 through 69,
and matching the separately drawn Powerball number, or a designated combination
thereof, within a single play, with the five winning numbers and the Powerball
number to be randomly drawn. Drawings will be conducted three times a week or
as publicly announced by the Secretary.
(c) The object of the game is for a player to
select, in a single play on a ticket, five numbers and the Powerball number
that match the numbers and the Powerball number drawn for the game in which the
ticket is participating. Correctly matching the six winning numbers consisting
of the five numbers drawn plus the Powerball number drawn, and meeting other
validation criteria, entitles the ticket holder to the grand prize identified
in §
871.8 (relating to expected prize payout percentages).
