While there was no jackpot winner to claim the grand prize, individuals were able to scoop the smaller prizes, with the jackpot now rolling over for the Monday drawing today and worth $478 million.
If anyone is to win tonight’s draw, they will get $212.2 million if they opt for the lump-sum. Something similar happened in April when the Mega Million jackpot was missed in April with a player winning $4 million at the time.
In the meantime, the Powerball draw on Saturday saw the winning numbers with 8, 10 , 14, 45, and 59 along with a Powerball 5 and a Powerplay 2x. The cost of a Powerball ticket is $2 and a Power Play option costs an extra $1.
