Powerball Jackpot Skyrockets to Record-Breaking $1.55 Billion

The Powerball jackpot has reached an estimated $1.55 billion after no winner was announced in Saturday's drawing, making it the third largest prize in the game's history. If won in the next drawing, the cash prize before tax would be $679.8 million. Multiple tickets matched five numbers to win $1 million prizes, while two tickets won $2 million each with the "power play" multiplier. The odds of winning the grand prize are 1 in 292.2 million.
