Participate in the Upcoming US Powerball Draw in 5 Easy Steps

Published

Reading Time: 3 minutes

 

Launched in America and running since 1992, the US Powerball is known for regularly producing multi-millionaires. The average jackpot pays $141 million and the biggest win recorded to date is a whopping $1.58 billion.

As a reader from any other country than the US, you may think that participating in this lottery isn’t an option, but that’s a common misconception. Thanks to lottery betting sites and online concierge services, you can actually play the US Powerball from anywhere.

This is how it’s done in 5 easy steps.

Step 1: Find a Lottery Site of Your Choice

There are many lottery sites that allow you to play the US Powerball. Some do it by purchasing a real ticket in the US on your behalf. Other sites run a betting business where you bet on the lottery as opposed to receiving a real ticket.

Some sites allow you to play the lottery in a group for an increased chance of winning, while others are offering single entries only. Ticket prices vary between sites as well.

To find a suiting one to play at, it’s recommended to rely on websites that independently compare lottery operators. For instance, OnlineLottoBaba is one such review site for people who want to play online lottery in India.

Step 2: Learn the Rules of the Lottery

Lotteries are pretty basic, but there are a few things you ought to know about the US Powerball. It’s played by picking 5 numbers out of 69 plus a Powerball number between 1 and 26. To win the life-changing jackpot, all of these numbers must be matched. However, you will also win a prize for only matching a few numbers, with the smallest prize being awarded for just hitting the Powerball number. Here’s the full prize chart:

Match Prize
5 + Powerball Jackpot
5 $1 million
4 + Powerball $50,000
4 $100
3 + Powerball $7
3 $7
2 + Powerball $7
1 + Powerball $4
Only Powerball $4

You must also know that the US Powerball has an optional Powerplay feature that can be played for an additional cost. On each draw, a ball with a multiplier ranging from x2 – x10 will be drawn. If you’ve added the Powerplay feature to your lottery ticket, any prize you win except for the first prize jackpot will be multiplied by this coefficient.

Step 3: Pick Your Lucky Numbers

Having signed up to a lottery site, entering the US Powerball is easy. Simply pick your 5 lucky numbers and the extra lucky Powerball number. You can choose to play only a single line or multiple ones by selecting as many sets of numbers as you want. For convenience’s sake, a quick pick feature can randomly select numbers for you with the simple click of a button.

Most lottery sites will also allow you to enter multiple draws in advance. You could, for instance, purchase a ticket with as many lines as you want for all draws in a given month or even a full year.

Step 4: Pay and Wait for the Draw to Happen

Paying for your ticket should be a familiar thing as it is like any kind of online purchase. Payment methods vary, but often include debit cards and e-Wallets such as Skrill and Neteller, among others.

Draws in the US Powerball occur every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 4 am CET or 10 pm ET. For the ultimate excitement, each draw can be watched live on the official website of the lottery or as a rerun if you happen to miss it.

Step 5: Claim Your Prize if You Win

Convenience is a beautiful thing when playing the lottery online. If you win, you usually don’t have to do anything. The lottery site will credit your account accordingly shortly after the draw.

The exception is if you’re playing with a site that has purchased a real ticket on your behalf and you win the first prize jackpot. You then have to pick up the prize yourself in the US. This shouldn’t be too bothersome though considering the fact that you’re doing it for tens or hundreds of millions of dollars.

Didn’t win this time? No problem. Rinse and repeat and hope to strike gold on the next draw!

Casino Guru and Mindway AI advance RG self-test game in time for SGW24
Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Casino Guru, the leading online casino database and a champion of informed play in the gambling industry, continues to build upon its responsible gambling partnership with Mindway AI, a prominent RG tech and solutions provider focusing on offering actionable real-time insight into consumer gambling behavior, by launching the revised campaign focused on the Gamalyze self-assessment game, in time for Safer Gambling Week 2024 (SGW24).

The game, a reinvention of the self-test, is a card game that allows players to analyze their own gambling habits through engaging and anonymous play. Thanks to a dedicated widget that welcomes players on the home page, the game is available directly on Casino Guru’s website and is also featured as “Game of the Week.”
To help further improve this year’s reach, Casino Guru has teamed up with several casino partners, including CasinoFriday, Shotz, Roman Casino, giving players the opportunity to explore the game while gaining deeper insights into their own gambling habits.

Casino Guru has reached out to subscribers with additional details about the campaign, aiming to significantly expand its impact and raise awareness among a larger audience.
Previous campaign iterations received 1,800 gameplays each, and Casino Guru is now determined to improve on this milestone.

Šimon Vincze, Casino Guru’s Head of Sustainable & Safer Gambling, shared the following: “I am excited about this year’s upgrade to the campaign and can’t wait to see the results. Together with Niamh from Mindway AI, we were looking for ways to attract more people to play the game and learn more about the risks involved as a natural part of their gambling experience. The upgrades we introduced are promising, and we are confident we can increase the numbers significantly.”

Once the self-test game is completed, Mindway AI provides players with detailed feedback on their gameplay, and analyze certain behavioral markers, such as how players respond to rewards and losses, the frequency of their wins and how risky their gambling behavior is.

Ultimately, the assessment seeks to improve people’s understanding of their own risk-taking behavior, and what they can learn from it. Both companies are dedicated to bringing the concept of safer gambling to the forefront of players’ awareness, and this innovative collaboration allows them to achieve this goal in a creative and enjoyable manner.

To access the widget and test your gambling style, head over to Casino Guru’s home page and click on the widget in the upper right corner of the screen, or check the “Game of the Week,” which will feature Gamalyze throughout SGW24.

Casino Guru and Mindway AI first introduced the campaign several years ago, boosting its reach in a player-centric way in time for SGW24.
