Saturday’s Powerball jackpot reaches estimated annuity of $484 million
Check your Powerball tickets closely if you added Double Play for the Monday, March 24 drawing. A $500,000-winning ticket was purchased in Harford County.
A player bought the Double Play second-tier winning ticket at Carsins Run Liquors, located at 3501 Churchville Road in Aberdeen. The winning Double Play numbers from the drawing are 02, 54, 59, 65 and 68; the Powerball was 03.
This is the first second-tier Double Play winning ticket sold in Maryland in 2025. Last night, Maryland had 1,822 Double Play winners of prizes ranging from $7 to $500,000.
Double Play is a second drawing that occurs 30 minutes after each Powerball drawing, giving players a chance to win up to $10 million with the same ticket numbers. Players can add the feature to Powerball tickets for $1.
There was no jackpot, second-tier or third-tier Powerball winners last night in the regular drawing, although 12,316 players won prizes of $4 to $200 (on a ticket with the Power Play option). The jackpot for the March 26 drawing has rolled to an estimated $484 million annuity and has an estimated cash option of $228.1 million.
Lottery officials encourage all winners to sign the backs of their tickets immediately and put them in a safe location. They get 182 days from the date of the drawing to claim their prizes.
