William Neal of Raleigh took a chance on a $3 Powerball ticket and won a $100,000 prize.

Neal bought his lucky Power Play ticket from the Food Lion on New Bern Avenue in Raleigh. He matched the numbers on four white balls and the red Powerball to win $50,000 in the Nov. 2 drawing. The prize doubled to $100,000 when the 2X Power Play multiplier hit.

Neal claimed his prize Wednesday at lottery headquarters and, after required federal and state tax withholdings, took home $71,251.

Wednesday’s Powerball drawing offers a $653 million jackpot, or $350.5 million in cash. The odds of winning a Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292 million.

Powerball is one of four lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying their tickets at a retail location or with Online Play through the lottery’s website or with the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. The other games are Mega Millions, Lucky For Life, and Carolina Cash 5.
