Biggest winner of Wednesday's Powerball drawing found in Connecticut

The numbers to march are 3-4-51-53-60 with the Powerball 6.

HARTFORD, Conn. — A Powerball ticket sold in Connecticut won $2 million after the drawing on Wednesday night.

The numbers to march are 3-4-51-53-60 with the Powerball 6.

The winning ticket sold in Connecticut matched all five numbers, but not the Powerball. Since they played with PowerPlay, the prize earned was $2 million.

That was the biggest prize won in Wednesday's drawing. No other tickets sold in the nation matched all five numbers nor reached the jackpot of $255 million.

Four tickets sold in Connecticut matched four numbers, earning $100. Nine tickets matched three numbers and the Powerball, which is also a $100 prize; however, five of those players played with PowerPlay, so the prize tripled to $300.

A total of 6,457 winning Powerball tickets were sold in Connecticut for Wednesday's drawing.

About a month ago, someone else won $2 million in a Powerball drawing.

The next Powerball drawing is on Saturday, Nov. 18 with the jackpot rising to $280 million.
