The Powerball lottery jackpot keeps climbing — now at an estimated $750 million — after there was no winner over the weekend. The next drawing is Monday evening. The three-quarters of a billion dollars jackpot is the game's 10th-largest grand prize and has an estimated cash value of $338.6 million, Powerball said. There was no grand prize winner in Saturday's $700 million jackpot, although several winning tickets were sold for other prizes. Two tickets to match all five white balls were sold in New York and Maine, and a third ticket sold in South Dakota also matched all five, Powerball said. There were 31 other tickets that won $50,000 prizes and five tickets sold that won $100,000 each. The winning numbers on Saturday night were 11, 14, 34, 47, 51, with a Powerball of 18. A single jackpot winner on Monday would have the choice of taking a lump sum payment of about $338.6 million before taxes, or going with the $700 million annuity option, which consists of one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments that increase by 5% per year.
