An estimated $1.73 billion Powerball jackpot is up for grabs during Wednesday night’s drawing, setting the stage for a lucky player to potentially win what would be the second largest prize in the game’s history.
The grand prize has continued to balloon after weeks of drawings with no jackpot winner.
If a player matches all six numbers Wednesday to nab the jackpot, they’ll be able to choose between an annuitized prize worth an estimated $1.73 billion or a lump sum payment estimated at $756.6 million, both before taxes, Powerball says on its website.
