After no winning ticket was sold for the most recent drawing, the Powerball jackpot increased to an estimated $875 million.
The white balls 23, 35, 45, 66, 67, and red Powerball 20 did not appear on any ticket for Wednesday’s $750 million prize.
The third-highest jackpot in the game’s history will be awarded in the drawing on Saturday. Both an annual payment of $875 million and a lump-sum payment of $441.9 million before taxes are up for grabs for ticket buyers.
The game’s pitifully low chances of 1 in 292.2 million are intended to create large jackpots that entice additional players.
Last November’s $2.04 billion Powerball prize was the greatest ever. The most recent Powerball jackpot winner received a top prize of roughly $253 million on April 19.
Since that time, no one has taken home the top prize in the previous 36 drawings in a row. In 45 states, as well as Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the United States, Powerball is played. Caribbean islands.
