TRENTON, NJ – New Jersey lottery players should check their tickets to see if they won last night’s big jackpot.
The Powerball lottery has reached a staggering $750 million for Saturday’s drawing, offering a cash payout of $350.6 million to any potential winner.
Saturday night’s drawing produced the numbers 1, 12, 20, 33, 66, with a Powerball of 21 and a Power Play of 2X.
Should a lucky ticket holder win this weekend, the jackpot would rank as the twelfth biggest in the history of U.S. lotteries.
In the last draw that occurred on Wednesday, which had a jackpot of $677 million, no one secured all six numbers. However, three tickets came close by matching five numbers.
Two of these tickets, sold in Georgia and Texas, have a value of $2 million each due to the Power Play multiplier. Another ticket, also sold in Georgia, is worth $1 million.
