Wisconsin Powerball – Powerball WI
The Wisconsin Lottery is 1 of 47 US State Lotteries & District Lotteries that offer the Powerball game – in this case the Wisconsin Powerball – as part of its overall portfolio of lottery games.
Powerball is a Multi-State USA Lottery that is run by the Multi State Lottery Association – MUSL – and is one of the largest lottery games in the world – having produced a record jackpot in January 2016 of an incredible US$ 1.58 BILLION. This is the biggest lottery jackpot ever won so far in the history of world lottery games – more than doubling the Mega Millions existing record jackpot of US$ 656 MILLION which was won in March 2012.
The very first Powerball draw took place on April 22nd 1992 with 16 USA Lottery companies – who were all members of the MUSL – taking part when the game changed its format and name from Lotto America which had started on February 13th 1988.
The WI Powerball began operations on April 22nd 1992 when the Powerball launched – as the Wisconsin Lottery was already a member of the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL) – having become the 8th state to join on August 10th 1989.
Wisconsin Power Ball – How it Works
The WI Powerball works in the same way as the Powerball game works in all the States and Districts in the US that offer the game.
Jackpots start off at US$ 40 Million and ROLLOVER after each draw when the top prize is not won – increasing in size by at least US$ 10 Million each time – making for some enormous jackpots.
6 numbers are drawn in total for the Wisconsin Power Ball game from 2 separate drawing machines – firstly 5 numbers are drawn from 59 white balls are followed by 1 number (the Powerball) from 35 red balls.
Draws for the Wisconsin Powerball Lottery take place twice every week on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9.59pm CST (10.59pm EST).
There is also a Powerball prize multiplier option available when playing that dramatically increases the size of a Wisconsin Power Ball win and is called Powerball POWERPLAY...
POWER PLAY…
The Powerball POWERPLAY option is a fixed prize multiplier and will automatically increase the Powerball win to at least double the original amount – and is there to give players of the Wisconsin Power Ball a chance to increase their winnings on all levels of the prize structure apart from the WI Powerball jackpot itself.
With Powerball POWER PLAY – you are very easily able to multiply your winnings on these levels by 2x, 3x or 4x – greatly increasing the amount you will walk away with.
A Powerball non-jackpot 2nd prize win of US$ 1 Million, for example, will be immediately doubled to US$ 2 Million when playing the WI Power Ball using this Powerball POWERPLAY facility.
