Powerball jackpot up to $1.55 billion as lottery losing streak continues
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Powerball jackpot climbed to an estimated $1.55 billion after no one matched the game’s six numbers and won the giant prize. The numbers drawn Saturday night were: 47, 54, 57, 60, 65 and red Powerball 19. The $1.55 billion prize is for a sole winner who is paid through an annuity, with annual checks over 30 years. Most jackpot winners opt for cash, which for the next drawing Monday night would be an estimated $679.8 million. The jackpot is now the world’s fourth-largest lottery prize after rolling over for 34 consecutive drawings. The scarcity of Powerball jackpot winners reflects the game’s daunting odds of 1 in 292.2 million.
