Powerball Prize Up To $1.5 Billion, 3rd-Largest Ever In U.S.

A winner who opts for an annuity, paid out over 29 years, would get $1.5 billion. The cash prize would be $745.9 million.

The bad news is that no one won Wednesday night's huge $1.2 billion Powerball jackpot.

The good news is that means the prize has grown even larger to $1.5 billion ahead of the next drawing Saturday night. That is the third-largest lottery prize in U.S. history.

The numbers drawn Wednesday night were: 2, 11, 22, 35, 60 and the red Powerball 23.
