A ticket with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number, in Saturday evening’s drawing of the multi-state Powerball lottery was sold at a gas station\/convenience store in the unincorporated community of Lakeside, and is worth $2,259,918.<\/p>\n
While tickets with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number sold in other states are worth $1 million or $2 million, California law requires major payoffs of lottery games to be paid on a pari-mutuel basis, meaning they are determined by sales and the number of winners, according to the California Lottery.<\/p>\n
There were no tickets sold with all six numbers, pushing the estimated jackpot for Monday’s drawing to $538 million.<\/p>\n
The numbers drawn Saturday were 1, 4, 19, 33, 51 and the Powerball number was 15. The estimated jackpot was $516 million.<\/p>\n
The drawing was the 24th since the last time a ticket with all six numbers was sold.<\/p>\n
The odds of matching all five numbers and the Powerball number is 1 in 292.2 million, according to the Multi-State Lottery Association, which conducts the game. The overall chance of winning a prize is 1 in 24.9.<\/p>\n
The Powerball game is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A ticket with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number, in Saturday evening’s drawing of the multi-state Powerball…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":493008,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[27015,22715,74,76,75],"class_list":["post-493007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-diego","tag-lakeside","tag-lottery","tag-san-diego","tag-san-diego-headlines","tag-san-diego-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=493007"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493007\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/493008"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=493007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=493007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=493007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
