$50K Powerball ticket sold in Dundalk as jackpots climb

Dundalk player wins $50K Powerball prize as Mega Millions nears $500M jackpot

DUNDALK, MD – A lucky Powerball player in Dundalk is holding a $50,000 winning ticket from Monday night’s drawing, just as lottery fever builds across the country with Mega Millions approaching the half-billion mark.

The ticket, sold at Quick Mart at 6920 German Hill Road, matched four of the five white balls — 1, 3, 27, 60, and 65 — plus the red Powerball, 16. That combination landed the player the game’s third-tier $50,000 prize.

While no one hit the jackpot on September 29, players in Florida, Illinois, New York, and Washington matched all five white balls to score $1 million second-tier prizes.

With no jackpot winner, the Powerball grand prize has now risen to an estimated $174 million for the October 1 drawing, with a cash option of $80.7 million.

The Maryland Lottery also reminded players of several unclaimed winning tickets from earlier drawings, including two $100,000 winners sold in Oxon Hill and Sykesville and three $50,000 winners sold in Belcamp, Elkridge, and Silver Spring.

Meanwhile, attention is turning to Mega Millions, which is set to draw Tuesday night with a staggering estimated annuity value of $497 million and a cash option of $229.5 million.
