Just one night after Ronnie Parker of Dawson Springs had a $1 million winning ticket in the Mega Millions lottery, there was a winner that had a $150,000 Powerball ticket in Owensboro Wednesday night.

Parker’s million dollar ticket was sold in Madisonville at Wicks Well Market Deli. The location of the $150,00 ticket has yet to be released as there are security procedures that have to be followed first.

According to Kentucky Lottery Communications Specialist, Sara Westerman, whenever a prize is over $50,000, they wait to release the name of the retailer until certain security procedures have been reviewed and followed.

Last night’s winning numbers were 3 – 57 – 64 – 68 – 69, Powerball – 15, Power Play 3

The person with the $150,000 ticket matched 4 out of the first 5 numbers and the Powerball in order to win $50,000. By adding the Powerball feature at $1 dollar per play, the winner was able to multiply their prize. The Power Play number last night was 3, giving them a total prize of $150,000.

The Kentucky Powerball jackpot is now at an estimated $430 million with the next drawing to be held Saturday, Oct. 20.
