A winning ticket worth seven figures was sold at Royal Farms on Montevideo Road in Jessup (Howard County), while the Powerball Double Play drawing produced a $50,000 winning ticket that was sold at Oak Street Station Oceanic on North Howard Street in Baltimore.
The winning numbers for the Powerball drawing on Wednesday, April 3 were: 11-38-41-62-65 with a "Powerball" number of 15.
The big winner matched the first five numbers, but missed out on the Powerball number, making it the fifth $1 million Powerball ticket sold in Maryland during the current jackpot roll.
According to Lottery officials, Double Play is a separate drawing that occurs 30 minutes after the main Powerball drawing. Tickets for Powerball cost $2, and players have the option to add Double Play to their ticket for an additional $1, making their ticket good for both drawings.
On Wednesday, the winning Double Play numbers were 10-44-53-60-63 with a Powerball of 13.
The ticket sold at Oak Street Station Oceanic matched four of the first five numbers and the Powerball number in the Double Play drawing.
There were a total of 57,418 winning tickets in Maryland from last night’s Powerball drawing, with prizes ranging from $4 to $1 million. Wednesday’s Double Play drawing produced another 5,451 winning tickets with prizes ranging from $7 to $50,000.
No one hit all five numbers and the Powerball number as the jackpot swells to an estimated $1.23 billion for the drawing on Saturday, April 6, with a cash option of 595.1 million. It represents the fourth largest jackpot in the history of Powerball.
