$750 million is up for grabs in the next Powerball drawing taking place on Wednesday 27th March so make sure you get your ticket in time either at a retailer in the states or online from anywhere in the world at theLotter.
The extraordinary sum of $750 million is only the fourth time in history a lottery jackpot has grown to $700 million+ and Powerball officials have plenty of champagne on ice ready to celebrate with the winner.
The last time the Powerball jackpot was won was December 26th, it's taken 25 consecutive drawings to make this one of the biggest draws we’ve ever seen.
Any lucky winner will be able to splash out on anything they desire with a lump-sum cash option of $465.5 million. Nearly a half-billion dollars in cash!
While last Saturday's draw failed to find a jackpot winner some lucky ticket holders did find a large dose of luck with numbers 24, 25, 52, 60, and 66, Powerball number 5 and Power Play number 3.
Ten players in total banked a $1,000,000 prize for matching 5 numbers and 101 tickets matched four white numbers plus the Powerball to win $50,000.
