Powerball players in North Carolina can have fun Wednesday night trying their luck on a $353 million jackpot.

A winner tonight could claim the jackpot as a $353 million annuity or $165.7 million in cash.

Even though the jackpot remains up for grabs, North Carolina players continue to win other big prizes playing Powerball. One lucky $3 Power Play ticket in Monday’s drawing won $100,000. The ticket came from the Harris Teeter on Robinwood Road in Gastonia.

Check out how North Carolinians win when they play Powerball:

  • 12,311: That’s the total number of winning tickets in North Carolina in Monday’s Powerball drawing
  • $6.4 million: That’s the estimate of how much money has been raised for education in North Carolina during the current Powerball run

Powerball has gone 22 straight drawings without a jackpot win.

Players can buy Powerball tickets at any lottery retail location or through Online Play on the lottery’s website, www.nclottery.com. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292 million.

The N.C. Education Lottery’s Play Smart™ program helps North Carolinians make the most of their lottery play.
