The Powerball jackpot for Saturday’s lottery drawing has increased to an estimated $54 million with a cash option of $25.5 million.
The winning numbers were: 10, 45, 48, 58 and 61. Powerball: 2. Power Play 3x.
While no one across the country hit Wednesday’s $39 million jackpot, a second-prize ticket matching five numbers but not the Powerball was sold in California.
It’s worth $561,233 instead of the standard $1 million. California lottery prizes vary depending on ticket sales and number of winners. They differ from the fixed second prizes offered in other participating states.
In New Jersey, no one won more than $300 with a single ticket.
Wednesday’s winning numbers were: 13, 29, 43, 58 and 22. The Powerball drawn was 22 with a Power Play of 3x.
In addition, no one on Wednesday won the secondary $10 million Double Play drawing. Those winning numbers were: 18, 36, 39, 49 and 62. The Double Play number drawn was 12.
The odds of hitting the Powerball jackpot are 292,201,388 to 1. A player who buys a $2 ticket has about a 1 in 11,688,053 chance to match five numbers and win at least $1 million, while the odds are 913,129 to 1 to win a third prize of at least $50,000.
Powerball drawings are held each Monday, Wednesday and Saturday in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Tuesday’s Mega Millions jackpot is worth an estimated $303 million with a cash option of $141.8 million
