PowerBall

Powerball Jackpot Reaches $25 Million;
Two $400,000 Power Play Prizes Won!
Powerball - Even though the grand prize was not hit Wednesday evening, Powerball had some big winners. Two tickets in Minnesota (1), and North Carolina (1), matched all 5 white ball numbers with the Power Play for a hefty $400,000 cash win each! Two other lucky tickets sold in Arizona (1), and North Carolina (1), each won $200,000 cash by matching all 5 white ball numbers!

The jackpot for the Saturday, November 8th drawing will be $25 million with the cash option at $12.5 million.

The numbers drawn Wednesday evening were 4, 8, 18, 33, 36, and the Powerball was 32. The Power Play multiplier was 2.

A whopping 13 tickets matched 4 white numbers plus the Powerball and won $10,000. One additional tickets of that prize level had the Power Play and had the prize multiplied by 2 for a $20,000 cash win! A total of 334,148 tickets across the nation won more than $3.1 million in prizes playing America’s favorite game.

A total of 66,689 winning Powerball tickets multiplied their prize by 2 Wednesday. Players were able to do that by purchasing the Power Play option for $1. With Power Play you multiply your Powerball winnings from 2-5 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 $15,581,472 in Powerball and Power Play tickets between Sunday and Wednesday night.

The lotteries sold more than $2.56 billion in Powerball tickets in FY08. That translates into more than $743 million for worthwhile state projects.

Powerball is now played in 29 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
