Because there was no Powerball winner on Saturday night, the jackpot grew even larger.
According to powerball.com, the jackpot is now worth an estimated $1 billion
with a cash value of $497.3 million, making it the second-largest in Powerball history
The new total ranks fifth in US lottery history,
trailing only one Powerball and three Mega Millions jackpots.
There is still time to purchase a ticket before the drawing tonight.
Powerball tickets can be purchased at gas stations, supermarkets, and convenience stores
