The Powerball jackpot worth an estimated $850 million is up for grabs Wednesday night.
The winner would have the option to collect their earnings in payments over 29 years or as a lump sum of $390.4 million cash.
It's now the fourth-largest prize in the game’s history after nobody matched all six winning numbers Monday night. The most recent win worth $1.08 billion happened in July when one lucky person in California bought that winning ticket.
Since then, Powerball has announced 29 drawings without a grand prize.
Tonight's drawing will happen at 10:59 p.m.
