The jackpot for Saturday's Powerball drawing rolled over to a whopping $184 million after no players matched all six numbers in Wednesday night's game.

Those numbers were 29, 32, 36, 39 and 49, and the Power Ball was 29.

The Powerball jackpot has been growing since Jan. 22, when a player in New York won $122 million.

The top prize in Friday night's Mega Millions multi-state lottery is $76 million.
