According to the Multi-State Lottery Association, if there are no winners on Saturday night, the jackpot will be at least $1.3 billion for the next drawing on January 13.
Nobody has matched all six numbers in one of the bi-weekly Powerball drawings since November 7, 2015.
November was the last time a jackpot victor emerged from Powerball, which is run by the Multi-State Lottery Association. And if your group is lucky, lottery officials recommend preventing hard feelings by putting in writing how you plan to split the prize, since it’s easy for misunderstandings to crop up when hundreds of millions of dollars are at stake.
A drawing Saturday night for a $900 million Powerball jackpot once again yielded no grand prize winners, lottery officials confirmed early Sunday morning.
A $2 ticket gives you a one in 292.2 million chance at joining the hall of Powerball champions.
In the drawing on Wednesday night, the jackpot stood at $500 million and with no victor drawn, the stage was set for Saturday night’s drawing just before 11 p.m. Eastern time.
The Powerball drawing 1/9/2016 is drawing record attention from throughout the country, and most simply want to know tonight results, since a victor is expected. The biggest winning jackpot was in 2012 with a MegaMillions game that was worth $656 million.
“Ever since then, I go, hell, if it happened once, it’s gotta happen again”, Diaz said. “You can throw out the statistics”, Gary Grief, Executive Director of the Texas lottery said.
