Powerball is a multi-state game with jackpots that start at $15 million.  For an extra dollar, players can select the Power Play option to multiply their non-jackpot prizes between two and five times.  To view a list of unclaimed Powerball prizes or learn more about how to play Powerball, visit Molottery.com.
