Over the past few years, huge lottery jackpots have become more popular as lottery officials have changed the rules and ticket prices to increase the top prize.
Powerball’s biggest change comes in 2021 when officials decide to add Mondays to the weekly draw list on Wednesday and Saturday nights. At the time of announcement, Powerball claimed the addition of Monday’s draw would result in “bigger, faster-rising jackpots”.
Powerball is played in 45 states, as well as Washington, DC, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.
