To play POWERBALL®, a player selects five different white numbers, between one and sixty-nine, and one additional red number (Powerball) between one and twenty-six. The additional number may be the same as one of the first five numbers selected. The price of a play is two dollars. A grand prize is paid, at the election of a winning player or by a default election made according to these rules, either on an annuitized pari-mutuel basis or as a cash lump sum payment of the total cash held for the prize pool on a pari-mutuel basis.
