News reaches Lotto Central HQ this morning from our blog readers across the pond that last night’s Powerball Jackpot of $54.9 million ( $27.3 million in cash) was not won and thus the Powerball Jackpot will now start to build up again following the recent Powerball jackpot win.
In the draw last night , Wednesday 28th August 2024 no ticket holders matched the main ball numbers of 05-33-47-50-64 and the Powerball of 20 and thus the annuitised $54.9 million jackpot was not won.
The Powerball Lottery jackpot will therefore increase to an estimated annuitised $69 million ( $34.3 million in cash) in the next Powerball Lottery Draw which will be drawn on Saturday 31st August 2024.
There were no first prize winners in Wednesday night’s Powerball Draw however two ticket holders , one from Georgia and one from Wisconsin did win a second prize by matching the five main white balls in the Powerball Draw.
The second prize ticket holder from Georgia took home $1 million in prize money with the second prize ticket holder from Wisconsin taking home $2 million in prize money as they had selected the Powerplay option on their Powerball entry ticket.
The Powerplay multiplier in Wednesday night’s Powerball Draw was TWO.
There were 296,535 winners in Wednesday night’s Powerball Draw with $5,224,036 being paid out in prize money.
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 !
