As the Powerball jackpot swelled to an annuity value of $1.6 billion, four players in Maryland were off by one in the past week for $50,000 third-tier wins.
The four big wins – one each in Bowie, Gwynn Oak, Hagerstown and Stevensville – were among 26 Maryland Lottery scores of $10,000 or more in the past week.
With the Powerball jackpot continuing to grow each time no one matches all six winning numbers, the jackpot has hit an estimated annuity value of $1.6 billion for the drawing tonight (Dec. 22), with an estimated one-time payment option of $735.3 million.
During the week of Dec. 15-21, players across Maryland won more than $31.2 million on all Lottery games.
