Powerball players have another chance to win the coveted prize — and it's a big one. The Powerball jackpot is now at $630 million, making it the seventh largest prize in the game's history, lottery officials said Wednesday.
The drawing increased from $610 million after there were no winning tickets in Monday night's drawing. If a winner is drawn on Wednesday, they will take home roughly $448.4 million in cash value.
Lottery officials said the price increase is due to a rise in Powerball sales across the country as 39 consecutive drawings failed to find a winner. The last time someone won was on October 4, 2021, according to Powerball.
