5 main numbers from 1 to 50, plus a powerball. The PowerBall comes from its own separate set of 1 to 20, so it can repeat one of the main numbers.

Yes. Our ticket checker checks your numbers against the most recent draw, and every past draw we hold has its own page with the winning numbers on it. Browse them from the PowerBall Xtra results history. Bear in mind prizes have a claim deadline, so an old ticket may no longer be claimable even if it matched.

No. Each draw is independent, so a number that has come up often is no more likely to appear tonight than one that never has. We publish hot and cold numbers because they are interesting and because they show whether the draw looks fair, not as a system. Be wary of anyone selling predictions.
