The Powerball Jackpot has once again gone through another drawing without a winner. With no one matching the numbers for Monday's drawing, another will be held Wednesday with the prize now up to $1 billion. If someone wins on Wednesday, it will be one of the largest prizes in Powerball history.

The Powerball Jackpot has not had a winner since April, bringing its prize amount to one of largest in US lottery history. As of now, the cash out option value would be almost $500 million. According to NBC DFW, the largest prize ever handed out was $2.04 billion, back in November.

If no ticket matches the numbers on Wednesday, the prize will continue to go up. Tonight’s drawing will be held at 9:59PM. Maybe someone in Texas will become an instant millionaire tonight.
