BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - The Powerball jackpot has surged to its biggest amount of the year, reaching an estimated $643 million ahead of Wednesday night’s drawing.
The pot grew after nobody won all six numbers from Monday night’s $605 million drawing.
The winning numbers were: 15 – 46 – 61 – 63 – 64 and the Powerball: 1. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.
If someone had won Monday, they could have chosen a one-time cash payout of $273.4 million or the full annuity prize, making it one of the 20 largest Powerball jackpots ever.
This marks the 32nd consecutive drawing without a jackpot winner since May 31, when a ticket in California claimed $204.5 million.
