POWERBALL JACKPOT TO $25 MILLION; $1 MILLION POWER PLAY PRIZE WON
October 19, 2009
The jackpot in America’s favorite lottery game continues to build. Even though the grand prize was not awarded Saturday evening, one lucky ticket in Louisiana (1) matched all 5 white numbers with the Power Play and won $1 million cash. This was a result of the new Power Play feature that turns any match 5 white ball win with the Power Play into a 5X multiplier and pushes the prize up to $1 million cash! Seven other lucky tickets in Florida (1), Kansas (1), Missouri (1), North Carolina (1), Oregon (1), Pennsylvania (1), and Tennessee matched all 5 white ball numbers without the multiplier for a sensational $200,000 cash win on each. In addition, 503,493 tickets across the nation won a total of $7,029,827 in prizes.
Because no one correctly matched all six numbers in Saturday’s drawing the jackpot will grow to an estimated $25 million!
The cash option for the Wednesday, October 21st drawing will be an estimated $12.6 million.
The numbers drawn Saturday night were 5, 16, 25, 30, 49 and the Powerball was 39. The Power Play multiplier was 5.
Other prizes won Saturday evening included 25 tickets that matched 4 white numbers plus the Powerball and won $10,000. Six additional tickets at this prize level were also wisely purchased with the Power Play option that multiplied winnings 5 times to $50,000 cash!
A total of 100,805 winning Powerball tickets multiplied their prizes by 5 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 an animated spinner presents 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.
