Powerball player wins big in Pennsylvania. Where was lucky ticket sold?
A Powerball player in Pennsylvania won $50,000, just missing the $84 million jackpot, lottery officials say.
The ticket matched four winning numbers and the Powerball in the drawing Saturday, May 10, the Pennsylvania Lottery said.
The lucky ticket was sold at a ShopRite in Monroe County, about a 105-mile drive north from Philadelphia, lottery officials told McClatchy News.
A ticket sold in West Virginia won $1 million in the drawing.
Nobody won the grand prize, which rises to an estimated $93 million, with a cash value of about $42.3 million, for the next drawing Monday, May 12, the national Powerball site said.
The winning numbers May 10 were 5, 20, 28, 39 and 42, with a Powerball of 13, the site said. The Power Play multiplier was 2x.
More than 470,000 other Powerball tickets sold in the United States also won prizes ranging from $4 to $100,000, the lottery said.
The Powerball jackpot was last won April 26, when a Kentucky player hit the $167 million grand prize, lottery officials said.
