The Powerball drawing on Saturday did not result in any grand prize winners, but there were plenty of smaller wins as the jackpot grew to an estimated $296 million.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on Saturday night were 10, 19, 40, 45, 58, with a red Powerball pull of 25. The PowerPlay was 2X.
There were no winners for the $284.3 million jackpot, but there were two players who became instant millionaires.
Following the latest Powerball drawing, a player from Massachusetts won $1 million by hitting the Match 5. Meanwhile, a player from Indiana hit the Match 5 with a Power Play, winning $2 million.
Aside from the instant millionaires of the night, several other tickets won smaller prizes. Nine players managed to hit the Match 4 plus Powerball, winning $50,000 apiece. However, only one player was able to hit the Match 4 plus Powerball with the 2X PowerPlay, winning a $100,000 prize.
Other players won prizes ranging from $4 to $200. A total of 675,920 won prizes from the latest lottery drawing.
On Saturday, the jackpot was estimated at $284.3 million, with a cash option of $159.6 million. The Monday Powerball jackpot will be worth an estimated $296 million with a cash value of $166.1 million.
The latest drawing comes after a player from Tennessee claimed a $1 million winning ticket. The ticket was purchased at a Publix grocery store in Ooltewah for the June 11 drawing.
Jackpot winners need to match the six numbers on their ticket to the drawn six-number combination.
Five numbers must be selected from 1 to 69 for the white balls, and a number is selected from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.
There is a 1 in 292.2 million chance of winning the Powerball jackpot. Powerball drawings take place on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
