The Powerball winning numbers were announced on Saturday, and twelve lucky winners became millionaires overnight after purchasing a Powerball ticket for just $2.

The Powerball jackpot on May 25 was a whopping $50 million prize. The drawing took place on Saturday evening.

Although the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are extremely slim, as the chances of taking the prize home is only 1 in 175.2 million, three lucky winners matched all the winning numbers, which were 02-06-19-21-27, as well as the Powerball winning number, 25.

The three winners will be splitting the $50 million jackpot among themselves. They only paid $2 to get a Powerball ticket, and brought home the big prize, becoming millionaires overnight.

The three lucky winners were from Florida, Louisiana, and Delaware. Another Connecticut player won $2 million after matching all 5 of the winning numbers, except the Powerball number.

Eight other lucky winners were revealed on Saturday night, each winning $1 million. These eight were from Florida, North Carolina, Massachusetts, California, Michigan, Wisconsin, and New Jersey.

At the last Powerball drawing on May 22, there were no winners who won the jackpot.

While it is extremely difficult to win the jackpot, players have a better chance at winning smaller prizes, as the probability is 1 in 32.
