The Powerball jackpot climbed higher after no players matched the winning numbers after Wednesday night’s draw.
The top prize is now estimated at $596 million – with a one-time cash payout of about $288.2 million – for Saturday night’s drawing.
There is a 1 in 292.2 million chance of winning the top prize, according to the game.
The winning numbers drawn Wednesday night were 22, 30, 37, 44, and 45 with the red Powerball number 18.
The Power Play option is 3X.
Two lucky players won a million-dollar prize after matching all five white balls, the game announced.
One ticket in Missouri is worth $1 million after the drawing and one in South Carolina with the Power Play option selected is worth $2 million.
The largest Powerball jackpot of 2023 – and the third largest in the game’s history – was won in July by a lucky player in California, who won a $1.08 billion prize, the lottery said.
Behind that was the $754.6 million top prize won by a player in Washington in February, which marked the game’s sixth-largest prize.
