(Des Moines, Iowa) – One lucky ticketholder in Arizona has won the $473-million dollar Powerball Jackpot, following Wednesday night’s drawing. The winning numbers were: 11, 36, 61, 62,68, and Powerball 4. It was not immediately revealed where in Arizona the winning ticket was sold or the identity of the individual, or if pooled, the group of individuals. The winner also has the cash option of $283.3 million. A ticket sold in Indiana matched all five white balls to win $1 million.

The Powerball jackpot last hit in Connecticut in the Feb. 14 drawing, when a single ticket got a lucky winner $185.3 million, according to Powerball officials. The drawing is held three times per week (M-W-Sa), and holds the world record for the largest jackpot of $1.586 billion which was shared by winners in California, Florida and Tennessee in 2016.

The jackpot falls back to $20 million, with a cash option of $12 million for Saturday night’s drawing.
