Chart prize vs what was actually paid
| Match | Chart prize | Average paid | Draws paid in full |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7 of 8 | $20,000 | $17,214 | 6 of 7 |
| 6 of 8 | $500 | $434 | 6 of 7 |
| 5 of 8 | $40 | $39.14 | 6 of 7 |
| 4 of 8 | $7 | $7.00 | 7 of 7 |
The chart amounts are ceilings. When a draw produces many winners in a tier, the prize money for that tier is split among them. The Xs & Os analysis shows what these payouts mean for the value of a $5 play.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the biggest Powerball Xs & Os jackpot so far?
$2 million, the amount advertised for the next draw. No one has won the jackpot yet, so it keeps rolling.
How does the Powerball Xs & Os jackpot grow?
It starts at $1,000,000 and rolls to the next Sunday when nobody matches all 8 teams. The lottery sets each new amount from sales; so far it has moved in small steps rather than the big jumps Powerball makes. It is always paid in cash, in one payment.
Why do some draws pay less than $20,000 for 7 of 8?
The lower prizes are pari-mutuel: when unusually many tickets win a tier, the money set aside for it is split. It happened on the first draw, when popular teams came up and 19 tickets matched 7 of 8: each was paid $500. 6 of 7 draws have paid the full $20,000.
