Tuesday’s PowerBall and PowerBall Plus draws carry a combined guaranteed jackpot of R145 million. The draw takes place on Tuesday, May 5, just after 9pm, with an estimated R64 million for PowerBall and R81 million for PowerBall Plus. To play, participants select five numbers between 1 and 50, followed by a PowerBall number between 1 and 20.
A quick pick option is also available, allowing the system to randomly generate numbers. Tickets can be purchased via selected banking apps or in-store until 8.30 pm on draw days.

The findings show that number 15 has been drawn the most, appearing 210 times, followed by 24 (200), 20 (199), 13 (197) and 31 (196). At the other end of the spectrum, number 47 has appeared just 76 times, making it the least frequently drawn, with 50 (83), 46 (85), 48 (86) and 49 (96) also lagging behind. But while the gap may seem significant, Casino.org cautioned against reading too much into it.
