Many predicted that Lottery Jackpots would rarely reach record levels after Powerball & Mega Millions expanded their audience to reach each other's States.
However, Powerball is now $200 million and Mega Millions reached $133M before being won. So let's hope that the naysayers were wrong and Jackpots will continue to be high.
The winning
Powerball numbers for Wednesday Mar 10, 2010 were:
17 21 37 41 50 Powerball 01 and Powerplay 2x.
In this drawing,
Lottery Power Picks recommended 428 combinations. Of these,
we had 11 winners: (3) pb, and (8) pb+1w, returning $41 back to our players. Our 5 number pool had 2,157,110 combinations. The first winning other combos were located at:
- 3-w @ # 632
- 3-w + PB @ # 4,990
- 4-w @ # 12,456
- 5-w @ # 913,534 - (Note: with Powerball)
There were no PB jackpot winners, so the jackpot grows to
$200 million with a cash option of
$96.3M and a yield of
4.77%
