After months without a winner, lottery players have another shot at a Powerball jackpot that has soared to a massive $768 million.


Here are the numbers: 16, 20, 37, 44 and 62. Powerball: 12. Power Play: 3X.

The Powerball drawing gave those who bought a $2 ticket a chance at winning the third-largest lottery jackpot in U.S. history.

Although the prize has grown steadily since the last jackpot winner on Dec. 26, the odds of matching the five white balls and single Powerball remain a staggering one in 292.2 million.

The $768 million estimated figure refers to the annuity option, paid over 29 years. Nearly all grand prize winners opt for the cash prize, which for Wednesday's drawing would be an estimated $465.5 million.

Powerball is played in 44 states, plus Washington, D.C., the U.S Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
