how to play Powerball
Imagine what you could change if you won Powerball this Thursday. With a minimum of division one prize pool of
$3 million every Thursday and jackpots of up to $50 million, Powerball could give you the power to change it all.
Every Thursday night, 5 balls are drawn at random from forty five balls numbered 1 to 45. A second draw is conducted using a separate draw machine to select one Powerball from 45 balls numbered 1 to 45”
To win fist division you need to match all 5 winning numbers plus the Powerball in a single game.

A System Entry gives you the option to play more numbers per game for a greater chance to win. For example, to win Division 1 in Powerball, you need all five winning numbers plus the Powerball. To increase your chances of winning, you could play a System 9 which means you get to choose nine numbers for that game rather than the usual five (plus the Powerball) which is equivalent to 126 standard games. Just follow these simple steps:
- Grab a Powerball coupon at your local Tatts Outlet or select your numbers when you buy Powerball online
- Mark 7 - 20 numbers in each game panel (e.g mark 9 numbers for a System 9 Entry etc)
- Play 1 - 50 games on a QuickPick coupon
- Play 1 - 12 games on a marked coupon
- Mark 1 number in the Powerball panel. Powerball panel is indicated by the circles.
- Mark the "System/Pick" check box on your coupon or select this option when you buy Powerball online
Play a Pick Entry and you can guarantee yourself either one or two of the winning numbers required to win that game. You can play a Pick Entry with your favourite numbers on a marked coupon or as a QuickPick Entry.
For example, if you play a Pick 3 Entry for Powerball, you are guaranteed two out of the five winning numbers, and you only have to pick the remaining three winning numbers in that game panel plus the Powerball.
- Grab a Powerball coupon at your local Tatts Outlet or select your numbers when you buy Powerball online
- For a Pick 3 Entry - mark 3 numbers in each game panel plus one Powerball number (gives you 2 out of the 5 winning numbers)
- For a Pick 4 Entry - mark 4 numbers in each game panel plus one Powerball number (gives you 1 out of the 5 winning numbers)
- For a QuickPick entry play 1 - 50 games, or
- For a marked coupon play 1 - 12 games
- Mark the "System/Pick" check box on your coupon or select this option when you buy Powerball online
Play a PowerHit Entry to guarantee you the winning Powerball number, so all you need to do is match the first five winning numbers, to win first division! You can play a Powerhit System entry too. You can play a PowerHit entry with your favourite numbers on a marked coupon or as a QuickPick.
- Grab a Powerball coupon at your local Tatts Outlet or select your numbers when you buy Powerball online
- For a PowerHit entry - mark 5 numbers in the first panel
- For a PowerHit QuickPick entry play 1 - 50 games

When playing a Standard, System or Pick Entry, if you have marked only a few game panels and want to play a bigger entry, all you have to do
is ask for a TopUp! The remaining game panels are quickpicked for you as standard games up to 12, 18, 24, 36 or 50 games. Just let your Retailer know how many games you want to top up to or, if you are purchasing online, you can select the 'quickpick row' or 'quickpick un-filled games' options to TopUp a Standard, System or Pick Entry.
