6/14/2007 (Powerball) The Powerball jackpot continues to move upward. Even though the grand prize was not hit Wednesday evening, 400,956 players across the nation won a total of more than $4 million in prizes in America’s favorite Game.
Because no one correctly matched all six numbers the jackpot will grow to an estimated $66 million for Saturday night’s drawing.
The cash option for the Saturday, June 16th drawing will be an estimated $29.7 million.
The numbers drawn Wednesday were 10, 13, 28, 30, 47 and the Powerball was 26. The Power Play multiplier was 3.
Six lucky tickets from Minnesota (1), Missouri (1), North Carolina (1), New Hampshire (2), and Oklahoma (1) correctly matched the 5 white numbers and won $200,000.
Eighteen tickets matched 4 white numbers plus the Powerball and won $10,000.
Five additional winners of that prize category also had the Power Play option that multiplied the win 3 times for a total of $30,000!
A total of 78,467 winning Powerball players multiplied their prize by 3 Wednesday. They were able to do that by purchasing the Power Play option for one dollar. With Power Play you multiply any winnings from 2-5 times, except for the jackpot. At the beginning of each drawing a wheel is spun to select that night’s multiplier.
Players should carefully check their tickets after every draw. Even if there are no jackpot winners there are always tens of thousands of winners at other prize levels.
Players purchased more than $17.8 million in tickets between Sunday and Wednesday night.
