Should You Access The Power of Rhode Island’s Balls?

Should You Access The Power of Rhode Island's Balls?

 

 

Call it a string of luck for the state, but someone just won the Powerball Lottery from Rhode Island again, just off the heels of 81-year-old, Louise White claiming the more than $300+ million dollar Powerball Lottery a week ago.  Louise is a Rhode Island native as well.  

 

The most current winnings are for $60 million,  and if the winner takes a lump sum, they will get around $37 million dollars.  The combined winnings including both winners is almost $400 million dollars.

 

The winning ticket was sold at Quickets Convenience Store in Smithfield and the state will get $2.6 million bringing the total amount from both lottery winners to over $16 million dollars for the state.

 

States have had winners who have won lottery prizes in the same year, but back to back winners are pretty rare!  No one has stepped up to claim the prize as of yet!

310 Million Reasons To Pay to Play?

 

People might have 310 million reasons to play the Powerball Lottery today as it has reached a feverpitch.  The lottery is estimated to be at $310 million dollars.  The drawing will be held today, Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 10:59 p.m. E.S.T

 

This is narrowly close to the largest Powerball Jackpot, that was a whooping $364 million dollars won by 8 winners back in February 2006.

 

Wednesday's drawing did yield a few lucky winners who matched 5 of the six numbers making them instant millionaires winning 1 million each.  There were over 1 million other winners who won prizes of $14,000+ dollars across the country.

 

If someone wins the drawing today, the one-time lump sum payment will be over $193 million dollars.
