On Monday, we like to bring you the most notable winners of the weekend, but this week the lottery jackpots have been proving elusive. After Friday’s Mega Millions jackpot rolled to $85 million there was still the Saturday Powerball to look forward to, if you had lottery tickets. However, there were no winners there either and now the Powerball Lottery jackpot rolls to $160 million for Wednesday evening!

Latest Powerball Results for 19 May 2012

At $160 million, this Powerball Lottery jackpot is the highest since 1st June when a Powerball Lottery syndicate scooped over $200 million. However, while the jackpot may have rolled over last night, it’s still worth checking the Powerball Lottery results as there were many smaller winners in the draw.

Four players matched all five main balls without the Powerball, and each of those lottery players will collect $250,000. These winning players are from Arizona, Kentucky, Massachusetts and North Carolina. These Powerball Lottery players are the biggest winners in last night’s draw, and will no doubt be celebrating today.

Now the rush is on, and lottery frenzy is likely to ensue as players rush to buy lottery tickets for the $160 million Powerball Lottery rollover. The draw takes place on Wednesday 3rd August and as stated above, the jackpot is $160 million. This jackpot total means that currently the Powerball Lottery jackpot is the biggest in the world, and still equates to $85 million if taken as the lump sum payment. Will the Powerball jackpot rise again or will we finally see a winner this week?
