There’s 2 New Florida Millionaires As The Powerball Jackpot Reaches One Billion
The Powerball jackpot continues it’s climb over one billion as no one correctly guessed all the numbers in Saturday’s drawing. However, Powerball just created 2 more Florida millionaires.
Check your tickets, even though you won’t be a billionaire, winning one million would still be a nice way to start your day. Here’s the winning numbers for the Saturday, September 30th, Powerball drawing.
19-30-37-44-46 with a Powerball of 22
There’s 2 Match 5 winners worth one million here in Florida. That means that ticket has the 5 white balls right but missed the number 22 Powerball. According to WFLA those tickets were sold at, “Publix at 262 S Ocean Boulevard in Manalapan and the Publix at 695 Kristine Way in The Villages”
Maryland, Michigan, and Pennsylvania also has these winners. 2 people, one in Indiana and one in North Carolina did the same, but checked the Power Play box and now will receive 2 million each.
The Monday October 2nd drawing now has an estimated jackpot of 1.04 billion. If you’re one of those players (like me) who only play when the jackpot crosses one billion – it’s time.
So where’s the best place in Florida to buy tickets to win that Powerball Jackpot?
There doesn’t seem to be a pattern. Gas stations and Publix are the most often. But there’s really no pattern. There is, however, a bit of a pattern as to which numbers come up more often.
Powerball Numbers And Red Ball That Have Been The Luckiest
61
61 is the clear winner. It’s been drawn 90 times in the timeframe. That breaks down to number 61 showing up in 9.54% of the drawings. Nearly one in ten. Is it due? Well, 61 last showed up back on August 30th. Hmmm.
32
The 32 ball is not far behind. It’s been in 89 of the drawings. That math means it’s been there in the chute 9.44% of the time when the drawing is done. Now 32, like the rest on this list, has shown up recently. It was last drawn on September 4th.
63
Another one in the 60’s. Powerball only goes up to 69, so it’s interesting to see these two drawn so much. Ball 63 has been drawn 87 times. However, it’s shown up even more recently – on October 4th.
21
Lucky 21. This is where it drops off just a bit. 21 has appeared in 86 of the drawings. That gives it a percentage of 9.12%. Still pretty good. But – it showed up recently, on September 18th.
36
36 has shown up a respectable 84 times in this time frame. That gives it a draw percentage of 8.91%. I think we’re really starting to see how some balls seem to be favored. We last saw this one on September 25th.
Let’s move on to the Red Powerball
18
The clear winner is 18. In 943 drawings it’s been there 49 times. That’s 5.2% of the time. Better than 1 in 20. But, and there’s always a but. Powerball 18 was there on September 13th. In comparison, red ball number 24 was right behind with a 5.09% draw and hasn’t been seen since July 19th.
