(NewsNation) — Wednesday night could bring the belated Christmas gift to end all Christmas gifts.
Powerball’s jackpot has swelled to $700 million after it went unclaimed on Christmas. If someone had the winning numbers, it would have been the first Christmas jackpot in a decade.
The next drawing is Wednesday night. The estimated cash value is $352.3 million before taxes.
The winning numbers Monday were 5, 12, 20, 24, 29 and Powerball 4. While nobody took the jackpot, winners in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, California, Colorado and Georgia took prizes between $1 million and a little over $2 million.
Nobody has won the jackpot since Oct. 11’s $1.7 billion haul. The odds of winning Mega Millions and Power Ball jackpots plunged when they added more numbers in 2015.
Each ticket has a 1 in 292,201,338 chance of winning the Powerball jackpot.
