The Powerball drawing on Saturday night did not have a grand prize winner for the estimated $51.7 million jackpot with a cash option of $29.7 million.
The next drawing, which will take place on Monday, will see the jackpot grow to an estimated $59 million with a $33.9 million cash value.
The winning lottery numbers drawn on Saturday, May 7, were 4, 5, 6, 28, 67 with a red Powerball of 10. The Power Play was 2X.
There were no grand prize winners following the latest drawing, but there was one instant millionaire. A player from Georgia hit the Match 5 and won $1 million.
If the player would have matched the five numbers with a Power Play, they would have won $2 million.
There were 12 people who hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball and won $50,000 each. Meanwhile, eight players were able to hit the Match 4 plus red Powerball with a Power Play and won $100,000 apiece.
The rest of the monetary winnings from the night ranged between $4 and $200. A total of 496,058 players won prizes from the Saturday night jackpot.
The latest drawing comes after a group of eight FedEx workers from North Carolina won a $2 million prize. The group of winners, who claimed the money as The Purple 8, have been playing the lottery together for about three years.
After hitting winning the $2 million prize from the Monday, April 25 drawing, the group took home $177,525 each after required federal and state tax withholdings.
Jackpot winners must match the six numbers on their ticket to the drawn six-number combination. Five numbers need to be selected from 1 to 69 for the white balls, and a number is selected from 1 to 26 for the red Powerball.
There is a 1 in 292.2 million chance of winning the Powerball jackpot.
