The excitement is growing for the April 26, 2014, Powerball jackpot, which stands at $40 million. The drawing will take place Saturday at 11 p.m. EDT.

The odds of winning the jackpot, which equates to a $23.4 million cash value, are approximately 1 in 175.2 million. However, players will have a better chance of winning a smaller prize since the odds are 1 in 32.

It costs just $2 to get in the game, while an additional $1 will allow you to add the Power Play multiplier per play. The $2 tickets allow players to pick five numbers from 1 to 59, and a Powerball number from 1 to 35.

One winning ticket for the $150 million Powerball jackpot on Wednesday, April 23 was sold at Naples Golden Gate Estates in Florida. The lucky numbers were 19, 25, 29, 36, 48. The Powerball number was 12.
