ILLINOIS — Illinois lottery players are celebrating several major wins following the Wednesday, April 29 Powerball drawing, which featured an estimated $143 million jackpot.
The winning numbers were 3, 19, 35, 51, 67, with a Powerball of 15. The Power Play multiplier for the drawing was 2x, and the jackpot carried a cash value of approximately $65.2 million.
While the jackpot-winning tickets were sold in Indiana and Kansas, Illinois produced a number of high-tier winners. Lottery officials confirmed that one ticket worth $2 million was sold in the state, with the Power Play doubling the standard $1 million prize after matching all five white ball numbers.
In addition, three tickets worth $1 million each were sold in Illinois after matching all five white ball numbers but not the Powerball.
Officials have not yet released details on where the winning tickets were sold or the identities of the winners.
Powerball drawings are held three times a week, giving players multiple chances to win substantial cash prizes.
