You don’t have to match every number to be a Powerball winner. Here’s how it works:

Match 5 numbers and the Powerball number = Jackpot
Match 5 numbers, not including the Powerball number = $1 million dollars
Match 4 numbers and the Powerball number = $10,000
Match 4 numbers, not including the Powerball number = $100
Match 3 numbers and the Powerball number = $100
Match 3 numbers, not including the Powerball number = $7
Match 2 numbers and the Powerball number = $7
Match 1 number and the Powerball number = $4
Match only the Powerball number = $4

“Congratulations to all our winners in Saturday’s Powerball drawing,” said Pennsylvania Lottery Executive Director Drew Svitko. “As we get ready for Wednesday’s drawing, we want to remind players to please play responsibly because it only takes one ticket to win.”
