$150 Million Jackpot Up For Grabs Tonight in the US Powerball

The US Powerball jackpot has rolled over once again after no first prize winning ticket was declared for Saturday's draw; 575,895 tickets won a total sum of $4,806,785 in non-jackpot prizes. The jackpot winning numbers on Saturday were 5, 6, 29, 35, 51 and the Powerball 21. The US Powerball draw taking place tonight at 23:00 EST (04:00 GMT) will feature a $150 million jackpot.

Playing the US Powerball

In the US Powerball, players are required to pick six numbers with the first five ranging from 1-59 and the bonus ball dubbed the "Powerball" ranging from 1-35. A ticket matching all six numbers credits the lucky holder with the grand prize, while hitting five numbers pays out a $1,000,000 prize. Four correct numbers plus the Powerball pay out $10,000 and four correct numbers alone give $100, the same prize given for matching three right numbers and the Powerball.

Online Lottery Tickets

With the help of online lottery ticket agents, people from all over the world can take place in the biggest American lotteries including tonight's US Powerball draw. These agents save players the actual prosaic chore of buying lottery tickets as they have agents who do that all by themselves for the players which are sent a scan of the ticket - making it as if they bought the tickets themselves. What's more, online lottery ticket agents like Lottery Master and The Lotter offer services making one's lottery experience even easier, with the ability to save favorite numbers or use quick picks to randomly pick numbers.

Misread Tickets are History

Just recently a Pennsylvania man misread his winning lottery tickets, consequently thrashing them and losing $1.25 million dollars. This simply cannot happen with online lottery tickets, as they can actually be checked for players which are notified of any winning numbers.
