Saturday's Powerball game grand prize will be worth an estimated $396,000,000 (cash value $$180.2 million), because no player hit all five lotto numbers plus the Powerball number in Wednesday night's drawing.

While the jackpot was not awarded Wednesday evening, Powerball did produce some big winners.

The 1 second prize winning ticket(s) purchased in CA won $1,000,000 cash.
In addition, 6 tickets matched four of the five lotto numbers, as well as the Powerball number. Those tickets are each worth $10,000. There were 3 tickets matched 4+1 with Power Play option, multiplying the winnings by 4 for a total win of $40,000 each! Additional prizes won Wednesday night included 224 tickets that matched 4 white numbers and won $100. 78 additional tickets at this prize level were also wisely bought with the Power Play option that doubled winnings to $200 cash! There were 680 tickets that correctly matched 3 white ball numbers plus the Powerball and also won $100. 221 additional players not just matched 3+1, and also bought the Power Play option, doulbled the winnings to $200 cash each ticket.
With nine different ways to win, the Wednesday night's drawing created 469,384 winning tickets across the nation with a total amount of $0 prizes.
Powerball is one of the most popular lottery games in the U.S. offered in 44 lottery jurisdictions as a shared jackpot game. Powerball drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday at 7:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Powerball lottery uses a 5/69 (white balls) + 1/26 (Powerballs) system to randomly pick winning numbers. Each play costs $2. Players can choose to spend 1 extra dollar to buy the Power Play, which increases the original prizes but not jackpot. The overall odds of winning is about 1 to 32. The odds of matching all six Powerball numbers are 1 to 292,201,338. The minimum Powerball advertised jackpot starts at $40,000,000. The annuity option is paid in 30 yearly increment payments in 29 years. Winners may select one-time lump-sum cash payout option instead.
