Lottery players in North Carolina can have fun this weekend with a $437 million Powerball jackpot up for grabs.

A winner on Saturday could claim the jackpot as a $437 million annuity or $210.3 million in cash.

While players keep trying for the jackpot, one lucky $2 ticket in North Carolina matched four white balls and the red Powerball to win $50,000 in Wednesday’s drawing. The ticket came from Publix on Raeford Road in Fayetteville.

Check out how North Carolinians win when they play Powerball:

  • 18,766: That’s the total number of winning tickets in North Carolina in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing
  • $8.1 million: That’s the estimate of how much money has been raised for education in North Carolina during the current Powerball run

Players can buy Powerball tickets at any lottery retail location or through Online Play on the lottery’s website, www.nclottery.com. The odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292 million.
