ILLINOIS — An Illinois Lottery player is $50,000 richer after matching four white balls and the Powerball in Saturday night’s Powerball drawing.
The drawing, held Saturday, Feb. 28, featured the winning numbers 6, 20, 35, 54, 65, with the Powerball number 10. The Power Play multiplier was 4x. Although no ticket matched all six numbers to win the estimated $237 million jackpot — which carried a cash value of $111.5 million — one ticket sold in Illinois won a $50,000 prize.
The $50,000 prize is awarded to players who match four of the five white balls plus the Powerball. Because the winning Illinois ticket did not include the Power Play option, the prize remains at $50,000.
Lottery officials have not yet released details about where in Illinois the ticket was sold or the identity of the winner. Winners typically have 180 days from the drawing date to claim their prize.
With no jackpot winner, the Powerball jackpot rolls over to the next drawing, which will be held Monday night.
