TENNESSEE — Two lucky lottery players in Tennessee won $50,000 prizes in Wednesday night’s Powerball drawing, according to lottery officials.
The winning numbers for the May 6 drawing were 18, 27, 51, 65 and 68, with the Powerball number 5. The Power Play multiplier was 3x.
Officials said the two Tennessee tickets matched four white balls and the Powerball, earning each ticket a $50,000 prize. The winnings could have increased to $150,000 if the Power Play option had been added to the tickets.
The jackpot for Wednesday’s drawing was estimated at $31 million, with a cash value of $14 million.
No ticket matched all six numbers to claim the jackpot, meaning the top prize will roll over for the next drawing.
