Rockville, Upper Marlboro retailers sell third-tier winning tickets
Lady Luck didn’t deliver a Powerball jackpot treat to any players on Halloween night, but she did deliver two $50,000 prizes in Maryland. The jackpot has rolled to an estimated annuity value of $1.2 billion for the Wednesday, Nov. 2 drawing and has an estimated cash value of $596.7 million.
This is still the second-largest Powerball jackpot in the game’s 30-year history and is now the fourth-largest jackpot in U.S. lottery history. The jackpot was last hit on Aug. 3 in Pennsylvania. Since then, there have been 38 Powerball drawings in a row without a jackpot winner. During that span, there have been 26 Powerball tickets sold in Maryland worth at least $50,000.
The winning numbers to match in the Oct. 31 drawing were 13, 19, 36, 39 and 59; the Powerball was 13 and the Power Play multiplier was x3. The two $50,000 winning tickets in Maryland were sold at Congressional Sunoco located at 1469 Rockville Pike in Rockville (Montgomery County) and Giant #347 located at 10480 Campus Way in Upper Marlboro (Prince George’s County).
In addition to our two $50,000 winners, Maryland had 115,802 other winners of prizes ranging from $4 to $300 (with the x3 Power Play multiplier).
Lottery officials encourage all winners to sign the backs of their tickets immediately and put them in a safe location. Winners get 182 days from the date of the drawing to claim prizes.
