Powerball player wins big in Missouri. Where was the lucky ticket sold?
A Powerball ticket sold in Missouri won $150,000, just missing the $273 million jackpot, lottery officials say.
The ticket matched four winning numbers, the Powerball and the Power Play multiplier in the drawing Wednesday, Oct. 15, the Missouri Lottery said.
The lucky ticket was sold at Happy Hour in Blue Springs, which is about a 20-mile drive southeast from Kansas City. A $50,000 ticket was sold at a QuikTrip store in Kansas City.
Tickets sold in Florida and Kentucky also won $1 million each.
The winning numbers were 10, 13, 28, 34 and 47 with a Powerball of 15. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.
Powerball jackpot rises
Nobody won the jackpot, which rises to an estimated $295 million, with a cash value of about $138.1 million, for the next drawing Saturday, Oct. 18, the national Powerball site said.
More than 415,000 other Powerball tickets sold in the United States also won prizes ranging from $4 to $50,000, the lottery said.
The Powerball jackpot was last won Sept. 6, when players in Missouri and Texas split the $1.787 billion grand prize.
