CBS Los Angeles

November 1, 2022

There were no tickets sold with all six numbers in the latest drawing of the Powerball lottery and the estimated jackpot for Wednesday's drawing is expected to grow to $1.2 billion, the fourth-largest lottery jackpot in U.S. history.

There were 13 tickets sold with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number, including two in California, one each at a market in Los Angeles' Mid-City area and a gas station in Visalia. They are each worth $790,446.

Tickets with five numbers, but missing the Powerball number, sold in other states are worth either $1 million or $2 million, but California law requires major payoffs of lottery games to be paid on a pari-mutuel basis.
