The short version
South Dakota sells Powerball on the standard terms: the national prize chart is what you are paid, and both $1 add-ons are available. At the jackpot standing after the November 4, 2026 draw, one $2 ticket bought in South Dakota is worth $0.35 — 17 cents on the dollar, and South Dakota withholds nothing from it. A single winner of the $20 million jackpot who takes the cash keeps about $5.5 million in South Dakota after the whole federal bill (every state). Powerball after taxes in South Dakota: lump sum vs annuity.

What the extra dollar actually buys
Every lottery advertises the add-ons and none of them prices them. They are priceable: the ball pool is published, the prize multiples are published, and neither depends on anything we have to estimate. So here is what a dollar buys in South Dakota, next to what the base ticket's non-jackpot prizes are worth per dollar — and the order may surprise you.
| Where the dollar goes | On sale in South Dakota? | Returns per $1 | How exact |
|---|---|---|---|
| The base ticket, below the jackpot | Always — it is the ticket | 16c | Exact. Fixed prizes, published odds. |
| Power Play (+$1) | Yes | 46c–50c | Exact. The range is the 10× ball, which is only in the drum below a $150 million jackpot. |
| Double Play (+$1) | Yes | 53c | Exact, and the only one with no jackpot in it at all. |
Read the column again: the add-ons return roughly three times what the base ticket's own prize table does. That is not an argument for buying them — every row is still a loss, and the base ticket's missing value is in the jackpot, which the add-ons mostly do not touch. It is an argument that "Power Play is a rip-off, just buy more lines" is the opposite of what the arithmetic says.
Power Play multiplies everything except two tiers: the jackpot, which it never touches, and Match 5, which goes from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 on a 2× and stays at $2,000,000 on a 10×. Pricing it as mean multiplier × prize table — which is what every explainer does — overstates it by more than half.
What a South Dakota ticket is worth right now
The advertised jackpot is $20 million. The cash value is about $9 million, because the headline is a 30-year annuity and nobody takes it. At that jackpot our sales model puts the chance of having to share a win at enough that a winning ticket is worth 99% of the prize on average rather than all of it. South Dakota withholds nothing, so only the federal 24% comes off. What a South Dakota winner keeps after tax, beside every other state.
The withholding only comes off the jackpot term here, not off the whole figure. Nearly all of a ticket's non-jackpot value sits in the $4.00 and $7.00 tiers, which no state withholds on; taxing those too would push the number down in a way that happens to flatter our own conclusion, so we do not. The draw-by-draw chart behind this is on the Powerball page.
Hot and cold over the whole run
The drawing is national, so the frequencies are too — there is no South Dakota hot number, only a Powerball one. Over the 1,429 draws since the game began drawing five numbers from 1 to 69, 21 has come up most (128 times against 104 expected) and 43 has waited longest, 51 draws.
21 has come up most often, 128 times. Each number averages about 104 over 1,429 draws, and whichever number happens to lead normally finishes around 23 ahead. 21 is 24 ahead, so this is an ordinary spread rather than a streak. 13 has come up least, 79 times.

South Dakota Powerball questions
- Can you buy Power Play in South Dakota?
- Yes. It costs $1 a play on top of the $2 ticket and multiplies every prize below the jackpot by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 — the 10 only when the advertised jackpot is $150 million or less. We price that extra dollar at about 46 cents at a large jackpot and 50 cents when the 10× ball is in the drum.
- Is Double Play available in South Dakota?
- Yes. For $1 your numbers go into a second drawing straight after the main one, with its own prize table topping out at $10 million. Every prize in it is fixed and none of them rolls, which makes it the one multi-state bet whose expected value is exact: about 53 cents per dollar. 30 of the 48 lotteries sell it.
- How much tax does South Dakota take from a Powerball win?
- South Dakota withholds nothing — no income tax. The 24% federal withholding still applies, and your federal bill is settled at filing. The calculator does the arithmetic.
- Are Powerball prizes in South Dakota the same as the national prize chart?
- Yes. Every prize below the jackpot is a set cash amount in South Dakota, exactly as the national chart prints it. Only California pays pari-mutuel instead.
- How old do you have to be to play Powerball in South Dakota?
- 18. South Dakota Lottery sets it, and a winning ticket has to be claimed in the jurisdiction where it was bought.
- Where were the South Dakota Powerball numbers drawn?
- In Tallahassee, Florida, like every Powerball drawing — one drawing serves all 48 jurisdictions. The numbers on this page are the same numbers as everywhere else; what the page adds is what they are worth to a South Dakota ticket. The national analysis is here.
