Powerball player wins $1 million in Washington. Where was the lucky ticket sold?

A Powerball player in Washington won $1 million, just missing the $503 million jackpot, lottery officials say.

The ticket matched five winning numbers but not the Powerball in the drawing Monday, Aug. 11, the Washington Lottery said.

The lucky ticket was sold at a 7-Eleven store in Vancouver, which is about a 10-mile drive north from Portland, Oregon, lottery officials told McClatchy News in an email.

Tickets sold in New Jersey and Virginia also won $1 million prizes.

The winning numbers were 6, 16, 33, 40 and 62 with a Powerball of 2. The Power Play multiplier was 2x.

Powerball jackpot rises

Nobody won the grand prize, which rises to an estimated $526 million, with a cash value of about $241 million, for the next drawing Wednesday, Aug. 13, the national Powerball site said.

More than 620,000 other Powerball tickets sold in the United States also won prizes ranging from $4 to $100,000, the lottery said.

The Powerball jackpot was last won May 31, when a California player hit the $204.5 million grand prize.
