The Powerball jackpot continues to roll as it now stands at $593 million for Wednesday’s drawing.

A winner tonight could claim the jackpot as a $593 million annuity or $277.6 million in cash.

Saturday’s $200,000 win came on a $3 Power Play ticket purchased in Timberlake with Online Play. The ticket matched four white balls and the red Powerball to win $50,000. After the 4X multiplier was drawn, the prize quadrupled to $200,000.

Check out how Powerball impacts North Carolinians:

  • 17,089: The total number of winning tickets in Monday’s drawing
  • $11.5 million: The estimated amount raised for education on the current Powerball run

Tonight’s jackpot is the second-largest Powerball prize offered this year, trailing only the $1.7 billion jackpot won Sept. 6 in Missouri and Texas.

Players can buy Powerball tickets at any lottery retail location or through Online Play on the lottery’s website or the NC Lottery Official Mobile App. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292 million.

It's evident in Powerball and Mega Millions drawings that the multipliers are intentionally kept low to retrict winner payouts. These rigged games are modeled after each other, and every year they've gotten worse with greed. And increasing greed is a destroyer of civilized society. Scamming in the name of charity.
