The Powerball jackpot has grown to an estimated $750 million with a cash value estimate of $338.6 million for the Monday, August 25 drawing after there was no winner on Saturday. Two tickets sold in Maryland that won $500,000 each through the Double Play feature, remain unclaimed. Additional details below courtesy MD Lottery:
“Powerball tickets are $2, with drawings held Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights. Powerball Double Play is a separate drawing held 30 minutes after each Powerball drawing. Players can add the Double Play option to their Powerball ticket for an additional $1, making their $3 ticket eligible for both the Powerball drawing and the Double Play drawing.
The two $500,000 Double Play winners were sold at Landover Hills Exxon at 6579 Annapolis Road in Landover; and A-1 Laundromat at 6818 Riverdale Road in Riverdale. Both tickets matched the five white balls in the Double Play drawing, but did not match the Power Ball number. Tickets that match all six numbers in the Double Play drawing win the top prize of $10 million. The winners have 182 days from the Aug. 20 drawing date to claim their prizes at Lottery Headquarters in Baltimore.”
