Lottery players have a chance to win big tonight, with the Powerball jackpot for Saturday’s drawing increasing to an estimated $1.4 billion after there was no grand prize winner on Wednesday.
The winning numbers are 47, 54, 57, 60, 65 and Powerball 19.
According to the Powerball website, the jackpot will have a cash value of approximately $614.0 million. Winners can choose to receive their prize either in a lump sum payment or in 30 successive payments over 29 years.
If a lucky player takes home the grand prize, he or she will be the winner of the third-largest jackpot in the history of the game. Powerball says Saturday’s prize will also be the fifth-largest U.S. lottery jackpot.
But players shouldn’t get their hopes too high: According to Powerball, the odds of winning the jackpot are only 1 in 292,201,338.00. The drawing will be live streamed Saturday night at 10:59 PM ET.
Powerball has not had a grand prize winner since July 19, when a ticket sold in California won a $1.08 billion jackpot.
Wednesday’s Powerball drawing was the 33rd in a row with no jackpot winner. The numbers were 9, 35, 54, 63, 64 and Powerball 1.
The largest Powerball jackpot ever won was a $2.04 billion prize, won by a lucky single ticket in November 2022.
