One lucky Mississippi lottery player is going into the holidays $200-thousand richer!
The player cashed in today, claiming the $200,000 jackpot prize from the Saturday, Nov. 20, Mississippi Match 5 drawing. After cashing in a Mississippi Match 5 ticket from a previous draw, the player received one free ticket. That one free ticket matched all five numbers for the Saturday, Nov. 20 drawing, turning the free ticket into a $200,000 jackpot win.
The winning ticket was purchased from Greer’s Market #19 located at 7100 Highway 614 in Hurley. The numbers randomly generated for Saturday evening were: 1-8-13-18-21.
The jackpot for tonight’s Powerball® drawing is an estimated $213 million. Tuesday’s Mississippi Match 5 jackpot has reset to $50,000; while Tuesday’s Mega Millions® jackpot has grown to $83 million.
