Powerball jackpot grows to $550 million for Wednesday's drawing
LOS ANGELES (FOX 11) - After no one matched all six numbers in Saturday's drawing, the Powerball jackpot has reached an estimated $550 million ahead of Wednesday's drawing, officials said.
The cash value lump sum option is at an estimated $335 million before taxes.
If you were to stack $100 bills, Wednesday's estimated jackpot would reach higher than One World Trade Center in New York City, according to lottery officials.
Players have to match all six numbers to win the jackpot.
The odds of winning are one in 292.2 million.
The deadline to buy tickets for Wednesday night's drawing is 7 p.m. PST, and Powerball drawings are held every Wednesday and Saturday at 7:59 p.m. PST.
Saturday's winning numbers were 30, 34, 39, 53, 67 with 11 as the Powerball. The Power Play multiplier was two.
