I had not checked he results of Wednesday’s PowerBall until just now. Saw that someone in California won the big jackpot so I checked and… I won… $9.

Better than nothing I guess. Sad thing is I had picked four of the numbers but not on one line.

Oh well.

PowerBall sales were much faster on Wednesday than expected. The MSL estimated on Monday that Wednesday’s cash value (not the annuity value which is much larger) at $409.3M, but it turned out to be almost $40M more than that!

Anyway, there were two winners (one in California) so they had to split the jackpot.
