18 Million People Won Something in Record Powerball Drawing

18 Million People Won Something in Record Powerball Drawing

By    |   Sunday, 10 January 2016 04:53 PM EST

Nobody won the top prize in Saturday's record $950 million Powerball jackpot, but more than 18 million people did claim some money from the contest, Vocativ reports. 

The prizes ranged from $4 for picking only the correct Powerball number (13) up to $2 million for picking five correct numbers and a Power Play add-on.

The odds of winning the jackpot are one in 292 million, but the odds of winning something are one in 25, according to Vocative.

Since no one won Saturday's jackpot, it will rise to almost $1.3 billion for Wednesday's drawing.
