MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) – So many players yet only three tickets matched all six numbers of the Powerball.
The three tickets, according to Lottery officials, were sold in North Carolina, Puerto Rico, and Texas.
The winning numbers were 11-13-25-39-54, with a Powerball of 19 and a Power play of 3.
Match 5 winners, each ticket worth $1 million, were reported for Florida, Arizona, California, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin.
Wednesday's jackpot was the third-largest in Powerball history and the fifth-largest U.S. lottery prize. The last time a Powerball jackpot climbed so high was May 2013, when a Florida ticket won a $590.5 million prize.
Powerball frenzy ahead of Wednesday's drawing increased the jackpot to $500 million.
