Roughly one in 25 Powerball players finish up winning a prize, according to the Powerball internet site.
The prize for Wednesday night's drawing came immediately after no ticket matched all 5 numbers and the Powerball drawn on Monday night, which marked the 39th consecutive drawing with no a jackpot winner.
The jackpot drought is by design, as the game’s extended odds of 292.2 million to one are intended to generate enormous prizes that draw much more players.
Despite the fact that that $333,000 would be subject to earnings tax, it could preserve you out of the highest state and federal income tax brackets.
