Nobody matched the Powerball numbers for Wednesday, so nobody won the jackpot. Nor did anyone match five balls to win $1 million or $2 million with the power play. However, eight people matched four balls and the Power Ball, winning $50,000. Two people matched four balls and the Power Ball with the Power Play so won $200,000.

More than 200 people won $100 by matching four balls, and an additional 61 people matched four balls and used the Power Play, multiplying their prize to $400. Nearly 700 people also won $100 by matching three balls and the Power Ball, and nearly another 200 players did this but using the Power Play, increasing their prize to $400.

Hundreds of thousands of players won smaller prizes ranging from $2 to $28. Many players quadrupled their prize using the Power Play. The Power Play can either be 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X and the number is randomly chosen just before the drawing. All prizes except for the jackpot are multiplied, and the $1 million is doubled to $2 million, no matter what the Power Play is.
