News reaches Lotto Central HQ this morning from our blog readers across the pond that last night’s Powerball Jackpot of $40 million ( $25.9 million in cash ) was not won and thus the Powerball jackpot will start to build up again following the recent Powerball Jackpot win.
In the draw last night , Wednesday 5th June 2019 no ticket holders matched the main ball numbers of 17-23-28-34-38 and the Powerball of 08 and thus the annuitised $40 million jackpot was not won.
The Powerball Lottery jackpot will therefore increase to an estimated $53 million ( $34.3 million in cash) in the next Powerball Lottery Draw which will be drawn on Saturday 8th June 2019.
There were no first prize winners in Wednesday night’s Powerball Draw but two lucky ticket holders , one from New Hampshire and one from the Pennsylvania won a second prize by matching the five main balls in the Powerball Draw.
The second prize ticket holder from New Hampshire took home $1 million in prize money with the second prize ticket holder from Pennsylvania taking home $2 million in prize money as they had selected the Powerplay option on their Powerball entry ticket. ( Powerplay multiplier is always TWO at this level of prize money ).
The Powerplay multiplier in Wednesday night’s Powerball Draw was THREE.
Previous experience proves that the Powerball jackpot soon grows substantially after a couple of rollovers so keep an eye on the LottoCentral blog to keep track of the ever growing jackpot !
