$5.4 Million Powerball Jackpot Won in Burbank, California
A Powerball ticket worth $5.4 million was sold at a liquor store in Burbank, California. Although it had five matching numbers, it missed the Powerball number. California law requires major lottery payouts to be paid on a pari-mutuel basis, which can vary. Three other tickets with five matching numbers were sold in Michigan, Florida, and New York, with varying prize amounts. No tickets had all six numbers, resulting in an estimated jackpot of $785 million for the next drawing. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.
