Another $10,000 PowerBall® Winner in Rhode Island

The PowerBall® winning streak continues with another $10,000 winner, making for 1 $10,000 prize in each of the last 3 consecutive drawings.  The ticket matched four numbers and the PowerBall® number for last night’s drawing.  The standard payout for this type of win is $10,000.  The winner did not purchase the Power Play® feature for an additional dollar on the wager.  If the player had opted for Power Play®, the $10,000 prize would have been multiplied by five, last night’s Power Play® number, to equal $50,000.

The winning ticket was purchased from Sunoco on 634 George Washington Highway in Lincoln.  The $10,000 prize has yet to be claimed.  The winner of last Saturday’s $10,000 winning ticket also has not come forward. 

Saturday’s estimated PowerBall® jackpot is $61 million.
