(NEW YORK) — The Powerball jackpot has climbed to an estimated $1 billion, after no one won the grand prize in Wednesday night’s drawing.
It’s the second billion-dollar Powerball jackpot this year — and the seventh largest prize in the game’s history, according to Powerball.
The next drawing is set for Saturday.
The jackpot has an estimated cash value of $461.3 million, according to Powerball.
The numbers selected in Wednesday’s drawing were: 10, 16, 29, 33 and 69 with Powerball 22.
The Powerball jackpot was last hit on Sept. 6 by two tickets in Missouri and Texas that split a $1.787 billion prize. There have been 40 consecutive drawings with no wins.
The largest Powerball prize ever was $2.04 billion, won on Nov. 7, 2022.
Winning players have the choice between annual payments worth an estimated $1 billion or an immediate $461.3 million lump sum payment.
According to Powerball, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
Powerball tickets are $2 per play.
