Get out your lucky rabbit’s foot, visit your favorite fortune teller, stare into those tea leaves.
Now’s the time to pull out all stops to win the next Powerball jackpot — now estimated at a staggering $250 million — after no one matched all six numbers in Saturday evening’s multi-state drawing that was worth $214 million.
Those numbers were: 3-15-27-58-59, and the Powerball number was 20.
There were some nice consolation prizes.
One lucky winner in Texas who paid an extra dollar as a ‘powerplay’ matched five of the winning numbers, but not the Powerball, for a prize of $2 million.
Five other winners — in Florida, Illinois, New York and Texas — who didn’t choose to pay the extra dollar, won $1 million by matching five numbers.
The next Powerball drawing is set for Nov. 21 at 10:59 p.m. for $250 million over 30 years, or $166.8 million for a lump-sum payment.
The Powerball game is played in 42 states, Washington D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The Powerball numbers are drawn live Wednesday and Saturday evenings.
