Giant Powerball jackpot escalates to a staggering $1.1 billion, as no fortunate winners emerged during Saturday's draw.
The Powerball drawing on Monday, May 31, offers a life-changing opportunity for participants, as the jackpot has swelled to an estimated $1.1 billion. This makes it the fifth-largest prize in Powerball's history.
The jackpot has not been won since May 31, and the rollover has led to a massive increase in the prize. Two lucky players from Missouri and Texas shared the Powerball jackpot of approximately $1.8 billion on Saturday, but no one won the jackpot on Saturday, May 29.
Each Powerball ticket costs just $2, and the numbers drawn for the Saturday, May 29 drawing were 3, 18, 22, 27, and 33, with the Powerball being 17.
If won, the jackpot would be the fifth-largest prize ever awarded in Powerball. Payments for the jackpot would be spread over 30 years, or a winner could choose an immediate lump sum of an estimated $498.4 million before taxes.
The odds of matching all six Powerball numbers are 1 in 292.2 million, making it a rare feat to achieve. Interestingly, the likelihood of getting struck by lightning is greater than the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot.
Powerball is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Drawings for Powerball are held each week on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nights.
The Powerball jackpot has not been won since May 31, and the next drawing is on Monday, May 31. Don't miss your chance to potentially win a life-changing amount of money! Good luck!
