TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — The winning numbers in Wednesday evening’s drawing of the “Powerball” game were: (five, nine, twenty-five, twenty-eight, sixty-nine, Powerball: five, Power Play: two)

When a Connecticut man lost his lottery ticket, he “didn’t think too much of it.” However, fate had other plans. Looking “for some superstitious fun” on Friday, June 13, Russell Ruff of Somers bought a Powerball ticket for the drawing the next day, Connecticut Lottery officials said in a July 7 news release. The ticket, though, vanished.

Here are Wednesday’s winning lottery numbers: The estimated Powerball jackpot is $216 million. The lump sum payment before taxes would be about $98.4 million.

Pick 3 winners receive $500 for a $1 straight bet and the odds of winning are 1-in-1,000. Pick 4 winners receive $5,000 for a $1 straight bet and the odds of winning are 1-in-10,000. The Rolling Cash 5 jackpot for the next drawing is $110,

Wednesday's big money lottery draw games produced one top prize winner, someone who did their playing at a Navarro Pharmacy. Saturday's Florida Lotto jackpot will be $15 million and the Powerball jackpot will be $234 million after no one hit all those numbers.

Two winning $1 million Powerball tickets were sold in Massachusetts for Wednesday‘s drawing for a $217 million jackpot. The winning numbers for the drawing were 5, 9, 25, 28, 69 and Powerball: 5. One of the winning tickets, which matched the first five numbers, was sold at a Market Basket grocery store located at 130 Water St. in Fitchburg.
