The Powerball jackpot has surpassed $1B dollars, after the numbers failed to be chosed on Saturday. Two players did win two million dollars, one in Connecticut and one in Texas. 25 players won a measley $1 million dollar prize, including in Ohio, Massachusetts, Connecticut. Last October, Powerball officials say they changed the game’s matrix, making it more likely to win any prize from 1 in 32 to 1 in 25. And with that, the chances of winning the biggest prize was reduced from 1 in 175 million to 1 in 292 million. In this Wednesday’s drawing, if a sole winner takes a lump sum payment, it’ll be a check for $806 million dollars.
