The Powerball draws occur on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 10:59 p.m., and soon there will be Monday drawings as well. The chances of winning the Powerball jackpot are approximately 1 in 292 million. Although the multi-state draw game is highly popular, the jackpots are not won frequently due to the extremely low odds.
The last time someone won the jackpot was on June 5th, when a player from Florida matched all five white balls and the Powerball, taking home a whopping $285.6 million. Since then, the jackpot has reset to $20 million and has been steadily growing over the past two months.
As of Wednesday morning, the August 11 Powerball drawing had accumulated a grand total of $241 million.
On the Virginia Lottery website, Powerball tickets are available for purchase. With a single Virginia Lottery purchase, you can buy up to five tickets for each of the next four drawings.
