POWERBALL JACKPOT MOVES TO $75 MILLION!
July 26, 2008
The jackpot in America’s favorite lottery game continues to move. Even though the grand prize was not awarded Saturday evening, 3 lucky tickets in Pennsylvania (1), Rhode Island (1), and Wisconsin (1) matched all 5 white numbers and won $200,000 cash each! In addition, 486,684 tickets across the nation won a total of $4,272,535 in prizes.
Because no one correctly matched all six numbers in Saturday’s drawing the jackpot will grow to an estimated $75 million!
The cash option for the Wednesday, July 30th drawing will be an estimated $36.4 million.
The numbers drawn Saturday night were 12, 13, 21, 51, 55 and the Powerball was 18. The Power Play multiplier was 4.
Other prizes won Saturday evening included 16 tickets that matched 4 white numbers plus the Powerball and won $10,000. Two additional tickets at this prize level were also wisely purchased with the Power Play option and multiplied winnings 4 times to $40,000 cash!
A total of 98,475 winning Powerball tickets multiplied their prizes by 4 Saturday. Players were able to do that by purchasing the Power Play option for one dollar. With Power Play you multiply your Powerball winnings from 2 to 5 times, except for the jackpot. At the beginning of each drawing a wheel is spun to select that night’s multiplier.
Players should carefully check their tickets after every draw. Even if there are no jackpot winners there are always tens of thousands of winners at other prize levels.
Players purchased $20,995,042 in Powerball and Power Play tickets between Thursday and Saturday night.
