4 $50,000 Powerball prizes won in Massachusetts
Four people in Massachusetts won $50,000 during the Powerball drawing on Wednesday night.
The winning numbers for the drawing were 3, 16, 29, 61, 69 and Powerball: 22.
Since there were no tickets sold that matched all drawn numbers, the jackpot prize rolled to $1.7 billion as of Thursday morning — the third-largest lottery prize in history.
However, four tickets sold in Massachusetts matched four of the first numbers and the Powerball number to win $50,000.
Two were sold in Peabody — one at 17 Central St. Liquor, and the other at Dev Convenience Store.
Another winning ticket was sold at The Point in East Freetown, while the fourth was sold at Gary's Liquors in West Roxbury.
The next Powerball drawing will be held Saturday.
The Powerball jackpot has not been hit all summer, with the last $204.5 million jackpot prize won on May 31 in California.
Powerball tickets cost $2 each. Tickets can be purchased until 9:50 p.m. the night of the drawing at Massachusetts State Lottery retailers across the state, and drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 10:59 p.m.
So far, the two largest lottery prizes won in Massachusetts in 2025 were each worth $15 million. Both were from scratch tickets.
One of the prizes was from a winning "Diamond Deluxe" scratch ticket sold in Holyoke, and the other was from a "300X" scratch ticket sold on Cape Cod.
