The jackpot for Saturday night’s Powerball drawing is among the top 10 all-time in the U.S. The Powerball jackpot has been rolling since the May 7, 2016 drawing, when a $429.6 million annuity value jackpot was won in New Jersey.
The ticket was sold in New Hampshire, according to the Powerball website. In January, Powerball gave away a .58 billion jackpot, the largest lottery prize ever.
But players have much better odds, of about 1 in 25, of winning smaller prizes ranging from $4 to $1 million. Saturday’s jackpot was the nation’s eighth-largest lottery jackpot. It worked. Three of the largest Powerball prizes, including the current jackpot, have occurred in 2016.
The Powerball jackpot continues to grow as there was no victor on Wednesday night. Check back to this page for a posting of the winning numbers in real time at 11 p.m E.T. One player in Pennsylvania also played the Power Play option, which increased winnings to $2 million. It matched the five white balls and the Powerball.
