Huge Powerball Lottery midweek jackpot

1st June 2010 12:05 AM

It’s been weeks now since the Powerball Lottery saw a jackpot winner and then again at the weekend, no players matched all the winning numbers yet again. That means we have a huge Powerball Lottery midweek jackpot this Wednesday evening and it’s the biggest of all the world lottery jackpots. The multi-rollover Powerball Lottery jackpot has climbed to an estimated $260 million, making it the biggest lottery jackpot available anywhere in the world right now!

The last big winner on the Powerball Lottery was on April 21st when Chris Shaw walked away with a massive $124.8 million after taking the cash option on a $258 million Powerball Lottery win. That was more than a month ago and this Powerball Lottery jackpot is about to surpass the last win.

In fact, the last time the Powerball Lottery jackpot was over $260 million was back in 2008 when an eight strong lottery syndicate walked away with $139.4 million of a $276.3 million lottery win.

So you can see that even after taxes, and with the winner choosing the cash option, the lucky winner who matches all the winning numbers and the Powerball on Wednesday night’s draw would be walking away with around $125 million.

You can buy Powerball Lottery tickets from anywhere in the world right now by clicking the banner above. Then you can be in with a chance of winning the world’s biggest lottery jackpot.

What a way to start off your summer, I’ll sign off dreaming of what my Powerball Lottery tickets could win me!
