Texas, Florida lottery players split $20M Powerball jackpot

For the second consecutive drawing, two lottery players shared a Powerball jackpot.

After tickets sold in Indiana and Kansas claimed a $143.4 million jackpot on April 29, players in Florida and Texas split a $20 million jackpot on Saturday, May 3, according to the Powerball website.

The Texas jackpot-winning ticket was sold in Leander, Texas, while officials have not yet disclosed the location of Florida’s winning ticket.

Additionally, a $2 million ticket sold in Georgia matched all five white balls and the Powerball in Saturday’s drawing. That stands in contrast to the 62 players who matched the five white balls for $1 million prizes in the May 3 drawing using a unique play style.

The Powerball jackpot will reset to $20 million for the Monday night drawing.

How do I play Powerball?

A Powerball ticket costs $2, but you can add the Power Play option for an extra $1 to boost your potential winnings up to five times the original prize (excluding the jackpot and Match 5 prizes). When the jackpot is below $150 million, a 10x Power Play option is also available.

Players choose five numbers from 1 to 69 for the white balls and one number from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball. Alternatively, you can let the lottery machine generate a Quick Pick ticket with random numbers.

Prizes range from $4 for matching the Powerball to $1 million for matching all five white balls (except in California), and up to the jackpot for matching all six numbers. You can view the full prize payout details on the Powerball website.
