The jackpot in the Powerball multistate lottery game keeps going up and is going to be up to a projected $236 million for the next drawing on Wednesday. The lump-sum cash payout stands at a projected $161.1 million. The amount was rolled over since no one matched all five white ball numbers and the Powerball number to win the $218 million grand prize Saturday night. The winning numbers drawn Saturday night, May 22nd, 2021 were 03, 19, 27, 37, 40 with Power Ball 08. The Powerball grand prize has been growing for 133 draws since Saturday, February 15th, 2020.

The 1 ticket(s) in North Carolina matched the first 5 white ball numbers with the Power Play for an incredible $2 million cash win! This is part of the Powerball game feature that guarantees a certain multiplier on all match 5 white ball winners that also have the Power Play option pushing the prize to $2 million cash. 3 other lucky ticket(s) bought in Arizona(1), New Hampshire(1) and New Jersey(1), each won 1 million dollar cash by matching all 5 white ball numbers!
Additional prizes won Saturday night included 16 tickets that matched 4 white numbers together with Powerball and won $10,000. There were 6 tickets matched 4+1 with Power Play option, multiplying the prizes by 4 for a total win of $40,000 each!
