The numbers for the first billion-dollar Powerball since last year were drawn on Wednesday night, and it was not immediately clear whether any tickets had matched all six numbers.
The winning numbers were 4, 26, 66, 67, 69, and red Powerball 9, with a Power Play multiplier of 2.
The winner could receive up to an estimated $1.04 billion, Powerball announced, paid in 30 graduated payments over 29 years, or a lump sum payment estimated at $433.1 million. Both figures are before taxes.
The next Powerball drawing is on Saturday Aug 15.
Wednesday’s drawing is the first billion-dollar Powerball jackpot since a player in Arkansas took home $1.8 billion on Christmas Eve last year.
