CLEVELAND, Ohio — There was no winner in Powerball’s drawing Wednesday night, so the jackpot now jumps to an estimated $349 million for Saturday.
Expect that number to be above $350 million by Saturday, with ticket sales likely to soar because of the large jackpot.
It’s an impressive number, but it’s got a long way to go to match the record prize of $1.586 billion, which had three winning tickets in January 2016.
Wednesday’s numbers are 5-28-33-38-42 Powerball 19 Power Play 2x.
A single winning ticket on Saturday could take the $349 million in 30 payments over 29 years or an estimated lump sum of $213.1 million, before taxes.
The odds of winning are 1 in 292,201,338.
Although there was no overall winner Wednesday night, tickets sold in California, Florida, Georgia, New Jersey and New York matched five numbers without the Powerball. Each is worth $1 million.
