LOS ANGELES (CNS) – There was one ticket sold in New Hampshire with all
six numbers in last night’s drawing of the multi-state Powerball lottery and the
estimated jackpot for Wednesday’s drawing will be $40 million.
Three tickets with five numbers — but missing the Powerball number —
were sold and are worth $785,065 each, according to the Multi-State Lottery
Association, which conducts the game.
The numbers drawn tonight were 11, 17, 21, 23, 32 and the Powerball
number was 5. The estimated jackpot was about $478 million.
The drawing was the 24th since the last time a ticket with all six
numbers was sold.
The odds of matching all five numbers and the Powerball number is 1 in
about 293 million, according to the Powerball website. The overall chance of
winning a prize is 1 in 24.87.
The Powerball game is played in 44 states, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands
