Powerplay option pays off again for winners
Sunday, May 28th, 2006Saturday’s Powerball drawing saw a half dozen more $200,000 winners for matching five numbers - but none hit the lucky six to claim the $28 million jackpot.
The next Powerball drawing on Wednesday, May 31 will now see a jackpot of $38 million ($16.9 million cash value).
In addition to the previously-mentioned winners, twenty tickets won $10,000 each for matching four numbers plus the Powerball, with two more winners playing the Powerplay option on that combo - and thereby tripling their winnings to $30,000 each as part of the most recent draw.
In total, $3.9 million in cash prizes were awarded.
