$10M Powerball Double Play Ticket Sold In FL

LEESBURG, FL — One lucky person in Florida is $10 million richer after buying a winning Powerball Double Play ticket for Wednesday’s drawing, Powerball officials said.

The optional Double Play drawing, a $1 add-on feature for Powerball, happens immediately after the main drawings on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. This second drawing uses the same numbers on your Powerball ticket.

Nobody hit the $58 million Powerball jackpot. There were two $1 million winners - one in Illinois, the other in Missouri.

The $10 million-winning Double Play ticket was sold at a Circle K in Leesburg at 10030 County Road 44, the Miami Herald reported. It was bought as a Quick Pick ticket.

The top prize-winning Double Play ticket matched the numbers on the five black balls — 6, 7, 42, 43 and 59 — as well as the red Powerball, 21.

The next Powerball drawing takes place Saturday at 10:59 EST from the Florida Lottery draw studio in Tallahassee.

As of Thursday morning, there’s an estimated jackpot of $75 million.

Powerball tickets are $2 to play and are sold in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
