After three months of waiting, the Powerball Lottery found its winners. Two players won the Gordo Award, a major award of around 1.79 billion dollars this Saturday, September 6, announced the American lottery.
When playing numbers 11, 23, 44, 61, 62 and Powerball 17, two Texas and Missouri players, whose identity has not been revealed, can be pocketed several hundred million euros, which they share in equal parts.
The Lottery specifies the New York Post that there are two payments, between an annual annuity paid for 29 years for a total amount of 895 million euros and a single package of $ 410.3 million, before taxes.
1 opportunity at 292.2 million
If some have not won the Jackpot, other players won significant sums during tonight, correctly guessing the five white balls or the Powerball.
The total sum of tonight’s profits was exceptionally high, when reaching the second major prize in the history of the American lottery. The chances of winning the Jackpot are extremely low, estimated at 1 of 292.2 million.
