Powerball jackpot: New month, bigger jackpot! The Powerball drawing on Wednesday, May 1 didn’t produce any winners, causing the jackpot to swell to an estimated $203 million for Saturday’s drawing.
If someone clinches the Powerball jackpot on Saturday and opts for the cash-value payout, they stand to pocket over $92.7 million, as per the lottery’s projections.
The winning numbers for Wednesday night’s Powerball draw were 1, 11, 19, 21, and 68. The red Powerball was 15, with a Power Play of 2X.
Apart from no jackpot winners, there were also no reports of Match 5 + Power Play $2 million winners or Match 5 $1 million winners from Wednesday’s draw.
To buy a $2 Powerball ticket, you can visit local convenience stores, gas stations, or grocery stores. In select states, online ticket purchases are also an option.
To play, select six numbers: five white balls from 1 to 69 and one red Powerball from 1 to 26. To boost potential winnings for non-jackpot prizes, consider adding a “Power Play” for $1, which can multiply winnings by 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X.
For those seeking convenience, ask for a “Quick Pick” from a cashier, where computer-generated numbers are printed on a Powerball ticket.
Drawings occur on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nights. If there’s no jackpot winner, the cash prize escalates by millions.
Tickets are available for purchase at gas stations, convenience stores, and grocery stores, with some airport terminals also offering lottery tickets.
