HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. — Two Coloradans are a few thousand dollars richer after Saturday night's Powerball drawing. Here's where those tickets were sold.
Four $50,000 tickets were sold in Colorado during Saturday night's drawing, but there was no grand prize winner.
Three of those lucky tickets were sold at a Circle K in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, identified as store number 135478. They were all sold to one player who won $50,000 on each ticket for a total of $150,000.
The fourth ticket was sold at Winners Corner at 310 N. Main Street in Pueblo, Colorado.
With no big winner in the Powerball jackpot Saturday, the grand prize for Monday’s drawing grew closer to one billion dollars - right now, it sits at an estimated $975 million.
The winning numbers drawn were: 12, 13, 33, 50, 52 and the red Powerball 23.
The next drawing will be Monday at 11 p.m. ET.
A jackpot winner in that drawing can choose to receive the money in annuitized payments over 30 years or take a lump sum estimated at $471.7 million.
No one has won Powerball’s top prize since New Year’s Day when a ticket in Michigan hit for $842.4 million, bringing the number of consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner to 38. That winless streak nears the record of 41 consecutive drawings, set twice in 2022 and 2021.
As the prizes grow, the drawings attract more ticket sales and the jackpots subsequently become harder to hit. The game’s long odds for Saturday’s drawing were 1 in 292.2 million.
