If 2021 wasn't your year, perhaps 2022 will be. A Washington lottery drawing on New Year's Day brings the chance to ring in the new year with a $500 million prize.
The winning player must have a Powerball ticket that matches all six numbers to claim the jackpot when the drawing takes place Saturday at 7:59 p.m.
Tickets for the Powerball drawing are available until 6:45 p.m. According to a news release from Washington's Lottery, the jackpot was hit six times in 2021.
Each Powerball play is $2. Players pick five numbers between one and 69 and one Powerball number between one and 26. Players can also use Quick Pick to let the computer select numbers. The more numbers that match those drawn, the more a player will win.
Powerball tickets can be purchased at Washington's Lottery retail locations throughout the state.
