A Pennsylvania Lottery retailer in Allegheny County sold a Powerball ticket worth $150,000 for the Saturday, May 1 drawing. The ticket matched four of the five white balls drawn, 35-36-47-61-63, and the red Powerball 3 to win $150,000, less applicable withholding. Without the $1 Power Play option, the ticket would have been worth $50,000. The Power Play multiplier drawn was three.
Giant Eagle, 4110 Brighton Road, Pittsburgh, earns a $500 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
