Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - No ticket matched the six numbers selected in Wednesday night's Powerball drawing, so the jackpot jumped to an estimated $550 million for the next drawing on Saturday night.
The jackpot rolled from an estimated $508 million after the white balls of 6, 8, 15, 27, 42 and the red Powerball 10 were drawn on Wednesday night, according to Powerball.com. The jackpot's lump sum value for the Saturday night drawing is an estimated $277.5 million.
The last hit on a Powerball jackpot was Aug. 3, when a ticket in Pennsylvania matched all six balls to win a $206.9 million. The game has had 33 consecutive drawings since then without a grand prize winner.
Drawings are streamed live at 7:59 p.m. PT on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at Powerball.com.
The game is not played in Nevada, but tickets -- $2 each -- are available for purchase in Arizona and California.
