A single lottery player in Connecticut matched all six numbers in Wednesday night's Power Ball drawing, and won more than a quarter-billion dollars.
The $254 million-winning numbers were 12, 14, 34, 39 and 46, and the Power Ball was 36.
One Georgia player matched the first five numbers, but not the Power Ball, and won $200,000, while another player in Georgia matched four of the first five along with the Power Ball, winning $10,000.
The jackpot for Saturday's Power Ball game is $20 million, while the top prize in Friday's Mega Millions multi-state lottery is $12 million.
According to Power Ball officials, the winner of the $77 million jackpot from the June 29 drawing has still not come forward. The holder of that ticket, which was sold at a truck stop along I-20 in west Georgia, has less than two months left to claim the prize.
