To determine whether you are a winner at Powerball, you can check your ticket and see how it compares to what is published in the newspaper or on the Powerball website, because you know it’s going to appear there. If you have gotten on board through a third-party source that has purchased a ticket on your behalf, they will take it upon themselves to let you know. If you want more immediacy in this, you can actually watch the drawings live on the Powerball YouTube channel. It’s called “Powerball 39.”
